Citroen C4 Cactus officially unveiled

Following a recent leak, Citroen has now officially unveiled the C4 Cactus.

Designed with the intention to bring customers more of what really matters, the production model closely echoes the concept and features a distinctive front fascia with LED daytime running lights and headlights that are surrounded by “Airbumps” which can absorb low speed impacts from things like shopping carts.

Other highlights include plastic body cladding, a panoramic glass roof and a distinctive C-pillar. In terms of dimensions, the model 4.16m long, 1.73m wide and 1.48m tall with a wheelbase that spans 2.60m.

Talking about interiors, the stylish cabin comes nicely equipped with “sofa-style” seats, a digital instrument cluster, standard infotainment system with a 7-inch display, metallic accents, gloss black trim and leather straps that act as door handles.

Citroen did not reveal much about technical specifications but confirmed that the model weighs 965 kg (2127 lbs) which is less by 200 kg (441 lbs) compared to the C4. The company also said there will be a petrol variant soon that has CO2 emissions of less than 100 g/km and a diesel variant that averages 3.1 L/100km (75.8 mpg US / 91.1 mpg UK) with CO2 emissions of just 82 g/km.
