Save £3008 on C4 Max PureTech 130 in Perla Nera Black

Typically Citroën, the design of ë-C4 and New C4 sets itself apart by combining:

• Elegance, fluidity and dynamism of a compact hatchback with refined lines and trademark graphic details.
• Strength, character and robustness of an SUV thanks to the large wheels, the generous and muscular shapes, and the 360° protection around the body.

There are four trim levels available on the C4 and e-C4: YOU!, Plus, Max and e-Series.

The short front and rear overhangs, combined with large-diameter wheels and 156 mm of ground clearance (more than the competition), give the vehicle a unique, assertive and confident elevated posture – and a “ready to pounce” attitude. New ë-C4 and New C4 break free from convention and put compact hatchback cars back on the map. With a long wheelbase (2,670 mm) the cars are at the heart of the compact hatchback segment in terms of dimensions: 4,360 mm long, 1,800 mm wide, 1,525 mm high. Thanks to its elevated stature, it offers a higher “eye-point” than the competition (1.22 m), providing increased visibility while driving.

A modern, high-tech front end

The front end, with its V-shaped signature lighting, incorporates Citroën’s new aesthetic design, as previewed on CXperience, Ami One and 19_19 Concept cars, and as featured on New C3 launched earlier in 2020. The styling is a natural development of Citroën’s previous front signature with its double-stage headlights and chrome chevrons stretched across the entire width of the vehicle. In this new and unique iteration, the chevrons extend to the daytime running lights at the top and now to the headlights at the bottom. This serves to highlight the 100% LED “Citroën LED Vision” lighting technology with LED daytime running lights and headlights with three LED modules. LED fog lights, combined with colourful surrounds, complete this innovative and high-tech front end.

The bonnet is high and horizontal – and features same concave shapes as C5 Aircross SUV – contributing vigour, strength and robustness. New ë-C4 and New C4 has an energetic and assertive attitude. The front bumper has a matt black lower skirt for durability in the event of minor impacts. The air intake grilles use a “macro chevron” pattern similar to that used on the Ami One and 19_19 Concepts, illustrating the attention to detail on these new models.

A smooth and aerodynamic profile

The aerodynamic profile offers generous volumes emphasised by soft and muscular lines to give the impression of power, perceived robustness and character. The large 690 mm diameter wheels and tyres particularly stand out thanks to the elaborate design on the 18-inch alloys that are available at the heart of the range. Well-positioned at the four corners of the vehicle, they provide reassurance and underpin the body’s posture. Matt black wheel arches – linked to the front and rear bumper skirts, and Airbump® trim with coloured inserts – energise the body shape and suggest protection and robustness. Chrome window weather strips, and new door mirrors with a modern and elegant design, add poise and refinement.

The unique roofline and the sloping rear window clearly express the aerodynamics of the vehicle, accompanied by a spoiler that enhances the vitality of the body shape. This gently sloping roof is a nod to the iconic Citroën GS.

A rear end expressing strength and dynamism

The rear design gives the vehicle dynamism and robustness, while suggesting a generous boot volume (380-litres) that is easy to load. With its sloping rear window and spoiler, the rear end draws its inspiration from the 2004 C4 Coupé with its original two-piece rear window topped by an aerodynamic spoiler.

Again, at the rear, New ë-C4 and New C4 instigate the V-shaped LED rear signature lighting that appeared on the Ami One and 19_19 Concepts, offering real consistency with the front end.

The bumper skirt – matt black for protection and durability – has gloss black decoration and chrome exhaust pipes for the petrol and Diesel versions, or unique inserts for the BEV versions, expressing power and dynamism. The two outer air scoops on the rear bumper pick up the design language of C5 Aircross SUV.

A PASSENGER COMPARTMENT EXPRESSING WELL-BEING AND MODERNITY

The interior inspires confidence at first glance through its perceived quality and modernity. An expression of the Citroën Advanced Comfort® programme, it suggests comfort with its clean, modern dashboard, softly shaped door panels, multiple storage compartments, soft materials and seats inviting passengers to relax on-board. The wide, horizontal dashboard gives a feeling of space and volume, while offering numerous storage compartments built into the design. The intelligence applied to the layout is evidenced by the Dashboard tray, Smart Pad Support Citroën™ and mobile phone storage. Extending naturally into the door panels, the dashboard creates a wrap-around effect that amplifies the impression of protection and serenity on-board, while the high and wide centre console enhances the status of this compact hatchback.

Occupants are immersed in a comfortable and cosy atmosphere: there is a new chevron grain pattern on the dashboard, new patterns on the Advanced Comfort seats and the interior colour schemes coordinate the seats with the new door panels. The materials add value and are soft to the touch in contact areas: notably the moulded dashboard top, wrapped front door panel strips and soft armrest trim. Satin chrome or high-gloss black accents on the vents, steering wheel, instrument panel, air-conditioning and infotainment controls, centre console and Dashboard tray add refinement to the passenger compartment and serve to identify useful functions.

The steering wheel has a wide bottom spoke that incorporates the driver assistance controls on the left and the infotainment controls on the right. New, gloss black automatic transmission paddles are integrated into the steering wheel for instantaneous gear changes, whatever the angle of the steering wheel.

The HMIs (Human Machine Interfaces) bring technology and modernity into the cabin. The frameless HD digital instrument panel features an original and easily readable Citroën identity graphic. It is highlighted with white mood lighting for a floating effect. The large colour head-up display is easy to use and keeps the driver focused on the road ahead by displaying essential driving information in a legible and intuitive way. In the centre, at the top of the dashboard, the ultra-thin borderless 10-inch touchscreen is the nerve centre of the vehicle’s controls. It has a gloss black finish and a physical chrome dial with a chevron motif. The controls of the dual-zone automatic climate control – also physical for immediate access to change the settings – have been treated with the same care: chrome dials decorated with the same motif and gloss black push buttons.

New ë-C4 and New C4 have a new and elegant guilloché metal automatic gear lever. It has the three usual positions (R, N and D) that are backlit for clarity. There are also two backlit push buttons: P to activate Parking mode, M to activate manual driving mode (for conventional engine versions) or B to activate the “Brake” energy recovery mode for the electric version. The console also incorporates the electric parking brake and a driving mode selector that has three settings on automatic transmission versions: Eco, Normal, Sport.

A SPECIFIC AND REFINED CUSTOMISATION OFFERING

In line with the status expectations of compact hatchback customers, New ë-C4 and New C4 offer a choice of 31 colour combinations and “Colour Packs” for the exterior and six different interior ambiences, allowing customers to drive in the car that suits them best.

31 exterior combinations to create a car that suits your image

The exterior customisations on offer on New ë-C4 and New C4 allows 31 different combinations to be created, combining:

• Seven body colours: Polar White, Obsidian Black, Steel Grey, Platinum Grey, Elixir Red, Caramel Brown, Iceland Blue.
• Five Colour Packs: Glossy Black, Metallic Sand, Textured Grey, Anodised Deep Red, Anodised Blue. Anodised Blue is exclusive to New ë-C4 and is identical to that offered on C5 Aircross SUV Hybrid to reinforce the family spirit of Citroën’s electrified vehicles. These Colour Packs are made up from coloured inserts around the front fog lights and on the Airbump® panels. Each colour choice allows discreet, refined or more dynamic combinations to be created.
• A large choice of wheels and wheel trims

To take customisation even further, New ë-C4 and New C4 have a wide choice of unique alloy wheels and wheel trims that highlight the large diameter wheels (690 mm):

• 16-inch “Spring” wheel covers,
• 16-inch “Steel & Style” wheels,
• 17-inch Diamond cut “Upstream” alloy wheels – for international market only,
• 18-inch “Aerotech” wheel covers,
• 18-inch Diamond cut “Aeroblade” alloy wheels, exclusive to New C4,
• 18-inch “Aeroblade Dark” alloy wheels, exclusive to New C4,
• 18-inch Diamond cut “Crosslight” alloy wheels, exclusive to New ë-C4 – 100% ëlectric.
• Six original and refined interior colour schemes

Thanks to warm, soft-touch materials in simple or more vivid tones, the interior colour schemes on offer across the entire passenger car range have become signatures of Citroën’s cabins. The padding and topstitching on the new cars’ Advanced Comfort seats echoes that previously introduced on New C3 and enhances the width of the seats. The contrasting colour band at the top of the backrests echoes the coloured inserts on the door panels and reinforces the feeling of space in the passenger compartment. So that everyone can drive in the surroundings that suit them best, six different interior ambiences are available:

• Standard ambience: timeless and simple, with black cloth combined with a grey band.
• Urban Grey with Advanced Comfort seats: the comfort and discretion of padded grey “Chevrons” cloth combined with a black leather-effect textile and a grey cloth band with a graphic screen-printed chevron pattern.
• Metropolitan Grey with Advanced Comfort seats: the chic and trendy combination of a padded black leather-effect textile, grey cloth and a grey cloth band with a graphic screen-printed chevron pattern.
• Metropolitan Blue with Advanced Comfort seats: the refinement and originality of a colour scheme combining padded “Saphyr” leather-effect textile, blue cloth and a metallic silver cloth band.
• Hype Black with Advanced Comfort seats: the universal distinction of padded black “Siena” grained leather combined with a black leather-effect textile and a grey cloth band with a chevron screen-printed graphic pattern.
• Hype Red with Advanced Comfort seats: the dynamism and status of padded red “Siena” grained leather combined with black leather effect-textile on the seats and door panels. Grey Alcantara bands on the seat backrests and grey film decoration with a chevron pattern on the doors are matched with a unique chevron embroidery.

The bands on the front and rear door panels can be replaced on New ë-C4 – at the customer’s discretion – by a blue-green film decoration with a chevron graphic motif – designed to wake up the simplest of colour schemes and enhance the atmosphere with a touch of electrifying colour in line with the electric drive mode.
