The new Citroen C1 will be heading to the Geneva Motor Show ahead of its release later this year.
It comes with a range of technologies which make the model that much more connected to the driver, allowing the motorist to feel comfortable and to use functions on their smartphone or in-car infotainment system without having to take their eyes off the road.
Furthermore, two latest-generation petrol engines - the e-VTi 68 Airdream and the VTi 68 engine - offer incredible choice depending on what the driver really values.
The former is twinned with a five-speed gearbox and comes with Stop&Start technology, putting it on par with some of the best models in its class when it comes to fuel consumption. The latter is available with a clutchless ETG (Efficient Tronic Gearbox) for better adjustment of power and a smoother drive.
For more environmentally friendly drivers, there is also a VTi 82 engine from the PureTech engine family available, with this 1.2-litre, three-cylinder, 82bhp petrol engine limiting emissions to 99g/km while delivering 65mpg.
