Class, ease and dynamism of a minimized hatchback with refined lines and brand name realistic subtleties.
Quality, character and power of a SUV because of the huge wheels, the liberal and solid shapes, and the 360° insurance around the body.
The short front and back shades, joined with enormous width haggles mm of ground freedom (more than the opposition), give the vehicle a remarkable, self-assured and sure raised stance - and a "prepared to jump" disposition. New ë-C4 and New C4 break liberated from show and set smaller hatchback vehicles back up for life. With a long wheelbase (2,670 mm) the vehicles are at the core of the smaller hatchback fragment as far as measurements: 4,360 mm long, 1,800 mm wide, 1,525 mm high. On account of its raised height, it offers a higher "eye-point" than the opposition (1.22 m), giving expanded perceivability while driving.

Matt dark wheel curves - connected to the front and back guard skirts, and Airbump® trim with shaded additions - stimulate the body shape and propose assurance and power. Chrome window climate strips, and new entryway mirrors with a cutting edge and rich plan, include balance and refinement.
The one of a kind roofline and the inclining back window plainly express the streamlined features of the vehicle, joined by a spoiler that improves the imperativeness of the body shape. This tenderly slanting rooftop is a gesture to the famous Citroën GS.A rear end expressing strength and dynamism
