The second-generation Citroen C4 Picasso launched in 2013 has proved immensely successful, appealing to over 300,000 customers with their remarkable design and comfort. The New C4 Picasso is entering a new era in summer 2016, boasting even more dynamism and distinction, with a new front end, a two-tone roof and more customisation possibilities, including a choice of four distinct interior design schemes.

Designed with the finest of the Citroen know-how and creativity, the New Citroen C4 Picasso is a modern and innovative MPV.

The design is underscored by original proportions combining a compact exterior with class-leading interior spaciousness and boot volume. The cabin is designed in a loft spirit and offers a pure and light-filled ambience along with materials that enhance the perception of quality and well-being. That feeling is further underpinned by the well-balanced road performance of the C4 Picasso, which, thanks to the development of the EMP2 platform, achieves a perfect blend of irreproachable road holding and classic Citroen comfort for all passengers.

The Citroen C4 Picasso was available on launch with technologies for well-being including a 100% tactile driving interface and a 12-inch HD panoramic screen, together with further innovations for a relaxed and easy drive such as Vision 360, Park Assist and adaptive cruise control.

Body design: thoroughly dynamic
The New Citroen C4 Picasso is first and foremost about energetic and modern styling. It boasts a unique and dynamic body shape, immediately recognisable in the automotive landscape. And in addition to its flowing lines and bold looks, the C4 Picasso is assuming a more prestigious appearance in 2016.

In terms of design, the New C4 Picasso and Grand C4 Picasso feature:
·         a new front end shared by both models, at once more dynamic and high-end. It conveys a sense of power and robustness through a set of components that enhance the impression of width. The new models keep the three-tiered light signature, which characterizes today's Citroen. Based on the Grand C4 Picasso theme, the Brand emblem extends to the extremities of the body to encircle the daytime running lights in a chrome surround. The design approach brings new clarity to the front end, lending it more value and breadth. On the lower part, a chrome strip recesses slightly before it reaches the daytime running lights for extra dynamism. The slim-line lamps also gain a new mask extending them out towards the exterior. The grille is separated into two parts by the body-coloured bumper. It has been reduced in the centre and now sports a glossy black registration plate mount and second air vent. At the bottom, the large air intake grille has integrated fog lamps and is underlined by chrome-finish C that further broaden our perception of the vehicle and position it on the road;
·         new rear lights standard, with a spectacular light signature featuring deep and futuristic 3D effect light guides. The high-end versions retain their current 3D LED signature;
·         new rear chevrons in gloss black with chrome surrounds, denoting Citroen's new positioning and lending more modernity to the rear;
·         a black two-tone roof underlining the car's personality and vitality (on the C4 Picasso only). Available as an option, the entire colour range, the new customisation possibility enhancing the body styling and comes with gloss black wing mirrors;
·         a new roof arch colour, Silver, a lateral signature unique to the Grand C4 Picasso body that underscores the elegance of the body design and the up selling of;
·         new 17-inch, five-spoke diamond-finish alloy wheels (on the C4 Picasso) and recoloured diamond finish on the current wheels (on the C4 Picasso and Grand C4 Picasso).

To highlight its strengths, the New Citroen C4 Picasso is also available with a new palette of colours comprising Lazuli Blue, full of energy and vitality, and Sand and Steel Grey, for an extra dose of elegance.
