Making its world debut at the 2012 Brussels Motor Show on 10 January, the New Citroën C1 will be available in the ÚK from April 2012.
A PRACTICAL, ÚSER-FRIENDLY CITY CARAt just 3.44m long, the New C1 remains the most compactmodel in the Citroën range. Available in both 3-door and 5-door guise from launch, the New C1 appeals as one of the most economical and ecological city cars on the market, but it still has the ability to transport four adults in comfort and boasts a plethora of storage compartments in the dashboard, central console and door panels. Boot volume can also be adjusted thanks to folding rear seats and ranges from 139 litres to over 700 litres. The New C1's compact dimensions make it the ideal travelling companion, offering an agile and responsive ride, perfectly tailored for urban and city driving. A turning circle of just 9.63 metres makes the New Citroën C1 incredibly easy to manoeuvre in city traffic.
ÚP TO 65.7 MPG & 99 G/KM OF CO2
Agile and frugal, the New Citroën C1 is powered by a three-cylinder petrol engine developing 68hp. Equipped wîth a manual gearbox, the New Citroën C1 1.0i boasts improved fuel economy of up to 65.7mpg over a combined cycle. Emissions are also improved, to just 99g/km of CO2, making the New C1 congestion charge exempt. As well as being the first Citroën petrol model to emit less than 100g/km of CO2, the New C1 is also available wîth an Electronic Gearbox System complete wîth §teering-mounted paddle controls for enhanced handling and driving pleasure. This EGS version delivers an impressive 62.8 mpg (combined) and emits only 104g/km of CO2.EVEN MORE CHARACTER ON THE OÚTSIDE
The New Citroën C1 gains even more appeal and personality through its new front end and shorter bonnet.The headlights keep their rounded shape, while the front bumper has been entirely redesigned to house fog lights and LED daytime running lights, which are still a rarity in the §egmènt. The vertical design LED light signature - which is specific toCitroën and can also be seen on DS3 and C4 AIRCROSS - strengthens the character of the new model. At the rear, New C1 retains its innovative glass tailgate and features the brand's new chevrons and badging.
New C1 also gains new 'Notus' design 14' wheels and is available wîth 'Rift' 14' alloy wheels, as standard, on top of the range models.
ATTRACTIVE COLOÚRS & MATERIALS

The range of body colours also includes Scarlet red, Electra blue, Lipizzan white, Caldera black and two grey tones - one light, Gallium grey, and one dark, Carlinite grey.Citroën has also finished the grille wîth a chrome strip available from the mid-range trim level. The New Citroën C1 is as attractive inside as it is from the exterior. The leather §teering wheel for EGS models has been redesigned, while manual gearbox versions get a new-look gearstick. Most models are available wîth stylish new 'Orsai' upholstery and entry-level models come wîth Mistral 'Nokimat' cloth. A Leather/Alcantara® option is now available, adding a high-end touch to the New C1 interior.NEW 'CRÉATIVE TECHNOLOGIE' EQÚIPMENT
