2016 Citroen C4 Picasso 1.6L BlueHDI 5MT FWD (100 HP)

Vehicle Overview

The 2016 Citroen C4 Picasso represents the facelift of the second generation of the C4 Picasso that was launched in 2013.

The model also comes in the Citroen Grand C4 Picasso version, having a lengthened wheelbase and providing more space to have a third row of seats in the back of the car. The Grand variant also has a lot more cargo space as it has a capacity of approximately 700 liters, 150 more than the standard version.

Besides the various gasoline and diesel engine inherited from the pre-facelift model, the 2016 C4 Picasso has a new PureTech 1.2-liter turbocharged three-cylinder gasoline engine that comes packaged with an EAT6 six-speed automatic transmission.

The front of the car is completely redesigned and displays numerous chrome inserts that give the vehicle a modern look, helping also to highlight the key features of the front end. There is also a different approach for the back of the Citroen, with redesigned taillights offering a unique 3D look that further enhances the futuristic aspect of the car.

More customization options are offered through the new color palette for the exterior of the C4 Picasso and through the optional five-spoke 17-inch diamond-finish alloy wheels that come in multiple colors. An optional two-tone black roof can create a contrast to underline the shapes and colors of the body elements.

The interior updates didn’t disappoint, as the facelift model has four new designs available, each coming with unique colors, materials, and features. The variants include options like massaging seats, second-row solar blinds, and ambient fragrance dispensers combined with materials like Nappa leather.

To further increase comfort, the Citroen has upgraded suspension to provide more stability and also has an electric power steering system that lowers the vibrations propagated to the interior. The rear axle is acoustically isolated to reduce the noise transmitted toward the passengers.

As a stand-out feature of the model, the panoramic glass roof offers improved visibility for all the passengers and makes the interior of the Citroen C4 Picasso feel way more significant than it is.

The facelift also comes with technologically advanced features, such as a seven-inch touchscreen meant to improve accessibility and provide a canvas for the 3D CITROËN Connect Nav navigation system. As technology isn’t limited to the vehicle’s interior, the Citroen also adds the Hands-Free Tailgate system that enables the trunk’s opening with a movement of the foot in case the hands are unavailable.

The 2016 C4 Picasso represents one of the most updated vehicles from Citroen, making its way through time with its modern look and with the help of all the technology features that increase safety and comfort and offer the passengers a pleasant ride.
