2011 Citroen C-Crosser

11. March 2011

When Citroen saw the need to get in to the SUV market, its parent company PSA, (which also owns Peugeot ), decided to consult and join with Mitsubishi, as a result of this union we now have the Citroen C-Crosser and the Peugeot 4007. The Citroen C-Crosser is basically a Mitsubishi Outlander with different sheet metal and suspension, to conform to European roads. The advantage of this SUV is that it was developed form already available and established technology (Mitsubishi) and therefore no production or performance issues will arise as with newly designed models.

The 2011 Citroen C-Crosser is available in two models the VTR+ and the Exclusive, both are available with the 2.2 HDi c cylinder engine with a maximum output of 156hp/280lb-ft of torque, combined fuel consumption at 38.7mpg, paired with either a 6-speed manual or automatic transmission. 4x4 is standard in all models. The VTR+ manual has an OTR of £24,895 and the automatic at £26,095. The C-Crosser Exclusive manual starts at an OTR of £27,670, the automatic at £28,870. Both models have a variety of standard features as ABS with EBD, ESP. Driver, lateral, front and rear curtain airbags, anti-theft alarm, Automatic air conditioning with pollen filter, second row seat slides and adjusts, trip computer.

The VTR+ is available with 16” Itoka alloy wheels, silver roof bars, foldaway third bench, fog lights, leather steering wheel and gear knob. The Exclusive includes some standard features as 18” Sycomore alloy wheels, rear privacy glass, chrome and aluminium inserts, rear parking sensors, 6-CD changer, chrome side steps. The concept behind the creation of the C-Crosser was to make an SUV that didn’t feel like one, with its unique fascia style, instruments positioned in a driver friendly manner without any clutter.
