HIGHLIGHTS OF CITROËN COMFORT INNOVATIONS
  • Filtration of the road: Citroën has been a pioneer with the hydro-pneumatic suspension system inaugurated on Traction Avant, then with Hydractive suspension, blending the best of hydraulics and electronics. The recent launch of New C4 Cactus and New C5 Aircross SUV confirms that the Brand seeks a perfect damping of the road surfaces, to provide the occupants a feeling of being on a magic carpet.
  • View of the road: Citroën DS’s turning headlights were able to illuminate the road even in the corners for the first time in the car production, allowing drivers to discover a new way of driving, with more safety and serenity.
  • Lightness: Citroën cabins have always been bathed in light, for example with 2CV’s opening roof, or more recently with C4 Picasso’s panoramic windscreen
  • Easy to read information: Citroën has always been a pioneer in the way of displaying driving information. The most useful elements are displayed as naturally as possible to the driver, so that he can focus on the road. For example, CX’s revolving drum speedometer, C6’s heads-up display, or C4 Picasso’s wide digital cluster in 2013.
  • Ergonomics and ease of use: Citroën has always innovated to help the driver’s movements with ‘satellite’ practical controls around the steering wheel, inaugurated on Visa and GSA.
  • Practical and useful storages: comfort is also the ability to drop and store everyday items. Citroën has been the first to propose innovative and reachable storage places, like Berlingo’s Modutop or C4 Cactus’s Top Box.
