Citroen C4 Cactus (2015)
Our world is changing and customer expectations are evolving at an increasingly rapid rate, which means ever greater demands on today's products and services. With the new C4 Cactus, Citroën has acknowledged these new customer requirements, offering a real alternative to the traditional compact hatchback.
Boasting a striking design, the new Citroën C4 Cactus stands out from its rivals in the competitive C segment, offering a unique style that is both functional and attractive. In doing so, Citroën meets a specific challenge - bringing customers more of what really counts.
The Citroën C4 Cactus heralds a new approach to automotive design, offering:
• More design
• Greater comfort
• More useful technology
• …with a reduced cost of ownership.
MORE DESIGN
The new Citroën C4 Cactus reconciles the characteristics of good looks and functionality, with unique styling that is both memorable and easily identifiable. This is a design that features:
• Pure, smooth surfaces
• Flowing lines, free of harsh edges
• Floating quarter-lights & a floating roof
• A high-tech light signature with daytime-running LED lights & headlights built into the Airbump® protection at the front
• Visual features that each highlight a given function - from Airbump® & wheel arch protection to the strong useable roof bars and the large panoramic glazed roof with its advanced heat protection.
Airbump: A Citroën Exclusive
Airbump technology neatly sums up the fundamental purpose of design, to combine style and practicality.
Fitted to the sides of the car and the bumpers, Airbump adds a graphic structure to the pure, smooth bodylines of the new Citroën C4 Cactus. Available in four colours (Black, Grey, Dune & Chocolate), they can be matched with the ten body colours and three choices of interior trim (Stone Grey Ambiance, Habana Highlight & Purple Highlight) to offer a wide range of customisation options.
Above all they provide real day-to-day protection, as the supple TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) skin comprises air capsules to absorb impacts. Airbump® requires no specific maintenance and directly contributes to cutting vehicle repair costs.
The result is an attractive, functional innovation that makes city driving a more relaxing experience.
Dimensions
The proportions of the new Citroën C4 Cactus are optimised for attractive styling, space and driving comfort, boasting:
• A 2.60m wheelbase (equivalent to a Citroën C4) placing the emphasis on space
• The dimensions of a compact hatchback (length: 4.16m, width: 1.73m)
• An ideal profile in terms of styling with 1/3 glazed areas & 2/3 side panels
• Optimised height of just 1.48m for improved aerodynamics
• Shorter overhangs placing the wheels in the four corners.
