The new Citroën C4 sits in between the traditional hatchback and crossover segments, reflecting the current desire among buyers to drive rugged-looking vehicles.
As a result, the new C4 not only replaces the old version but also the Citroen Cactus.
Its exterior styling reflects the brand’s quirky nature, with large headlights and a split rear windscreen. Yet, on the inside things are quite a bit more conventional and it lacks some of the flair that the C3 and C5 Aircross provide.
The interior is dominated by black plastic. Aside from some coloured trim pieces on the door cards and a bit of shiny trim around the air vents, it’s a tad drab when compared with the exterior. Thankfully, the usability of the C4’s interior is much better. There’s conventional heating controls, rather than a sub-menu within the infotainment system, and the materials used on the steering wheel, gear selector and other switchgear feel upmarket.
