CIT'S SO PRACTICAL BUT DULL TO DRIVE

HYBRID C4 BALANCES CLUNKINESS UNDER BONNET WITH SUPERB COMFORT INSIDE

- 

THE Citroen C4 used to be a stylish family hatchback with innovative safety features. But a few years back, the French firm decided to axe the Ford Focus rival in favour of SUVs.

However, in the surge in demand for jacked-up vehicles, the French firm had a rethink and brought back the C4 nameplate in 2020.

The car returned as a hatchback, with slightly more ground clearance, making it easier to get in and out. Now it has some updates to keep it looking fresh.

WHAT'S NEW?

At first glance, it seems similar to the old model. But you'll soon notice the different front end that incorporates Citroen's new chevron logo with a redesigned radiator grille. There are two new exterior paint schemes too.

The changes continue inside with the Citroen's “Advanced Comfort Seats” and a new seven-inch instrument display. But apart from that, the rest of the car is as before.
