Auto news; Citroens at double!
Auto news; Citroens at double! Disguised C3 spied on test, as fresh C4 debuts.
You wait ages for a new Citroen, then two come along at once. As the French marque reveals its facelifted C4 hatch, the forthcoming C3 remains well under cover.
The new C4 gets a revised grille and resculpted bonnet, plus new colours and interior trims. Citroen says the fit and finish are improved inside, as is the layout. The rev counter has been moved from the steering wheel into the central display.
There are two new petrol engines, both co-developed with BMW: a 118bhp VTi and a 148bhp THP turbo, offering better economy and emissions.
Meanwhile, our spies have spotted the new C3 hatch on test ahead of its launch next year. Set to replace both the current C3 and C2 supermini, the five-door will retain the 2CV-inspired curves but adds chunky detailing. An off-road X-TR variant will follow later, as will a Pluriel cabriolet. Power comes from the current petrol and diesel range, with outputs of between 60bhp and 110bhp.
