Introducing The New and Naturally Urban Citroen C1
The New Citroën C1 is the latest generation of the popular city car that has sold more than 780,000 examples worldwide since launch in 2005. The New Citroën C1 delivers an upbeat response to today’s urban mobility requirements and reflects the bold renewal of the Citroën brand. The New C1 will be available as both three and five-door versions as a hatchback and as a new open-top body style, named Airscape. Two main customer demographics are anticipated for the New Citroën C1; The first will be young drivers, typically under 30, the majority being female. They are looking for a stylish and affordable city car that is economical to run and fun to drive. The second group are older couples looking to downsize both economically and practically. For all buyers, the New Citroën C1 will represent both the ‘smart’ choice, combining comfort, economy and functionality and the fun choice, with customisable style, the latest technology and an enjoyable driving experience.
The New Citroën C1 combines a dynamic, lively design with a spacious, colourful interior and compact exterior dimensions. The styling is underlined by the seemingly continuous glass area from the windscreen into the side windows, with black windscreen pillars and depending on the trim level, chrome-finished weather strips and dark tinted rear windows. The front features all the key characteristics of the brand’s newest models, with a new two-part headlamp signature and integrated LED daytime running lights creating a smiling front-end gaze in addition to emphasising the car’s cheerful design and strong character.
The New Citroën C1 is available in eight exterior colours (including four metallic shades) – Smalt Blue (M), Caldera Black (M), Gallium Grey (M), Carlinite Grey (M), Tapenade Grey, Lipizzan White, Scarlet Red and Sunrise Red, which can be personalised with a choice of chrome door mirrors and door handles on the Flair trim level. For a touch of urban chic, 14 or 15-inch wheels and covers, and 15-inch diamond-tipped alloys are available.
The interior of the New Citroën C1 is bright and airy with a colourful ambience. With clean, structured lines, the dashboard can feature bright colours on the multimedia panel, air vents and gear lever base. A leather-trimmed steering wheel is also fitted as standard on Flair versions.
With the VTi 68 engine with Stop & Start technology mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox, the New Citroën C1 is amongst the best-in-class for fuel economy, with up to 74.3mpg on a combined cycle and just 88g/km of CO2. The VTi 68 engine (non-Stop & Start) can be specified with a manual 5-speed gearbox and with the option of an automated manual 5-speed ETG (Efficient Tronic Gearbox). The ETG system features a creep function and optimised pedal mapping, adjusting power effectively for smoother gear changes.
A new choice of power from the PureTech engine family is also offered. This 1.2-litre, 3-cylinder, 82hp petrol engine uses innovative technologies to achieve fuel economy of 65.7mpg (combined cycle) and just 99g/km CO2. This is combined with rewarding performance, including torque of 116 Nm at 2,750rpm and a 0-62mph acceleration time of 11 seconds.
