    Citroen C4 Review, Colours, For Sale, Interior & Models in Australia

    Citroens have also had a measure of quirk about them, and nothing exemplifies this like the C4.

    Is it a hatchback? An SUV? A wagon? Or a crossover? In reality, the latest Citroen C4 is a mix of everything with a healthy dose of style and panache to top it off.

    Powertrain options in the new-generation extend to just one choice – a 1.2-litre three-cylinder turbo-petrol engine making 114kW/240Nm.

    The line-up currently starts at $36,630 for the C4 Shine 1.2 THP 114 and ranges through to $47,410 for the range-topping C4 Shine 1.2 THP 96.

    Citroen C4 Q&As

    Check out real-world situations relating to the Citroen C4 here, particularly what our experts have to say about them.

    • Citroen C4: Can I use E10?

      You can use 91-octane unleaded petrol, but to get the best performance and lowest fuel consumption it’s recommended that you use 95-octane Premium unleaded.

    • Second engine replacement in a 2015 Citroen C4

      Were you told why the first engine failed? It’s most unusual for an engine to fail at such low kilometres, and to have it happen again is unbelievable. If the engine has failed again and needs to be replaced Citroen should do it under warranty, which should still be current. If they don’t then go to the ACCC for help, or take your claim to VCAT.

    • C4 automated manual gearchange

      The Citroen has an automated manual gearbox, which means it is a manual gearbox with an automated shift mechanism, and what you're feeling is exactly what you describe, a smooth, slow manual change. It sounds normal.

    • Citroen C4 fuel economy

      Problems don't fix themselves, you had a problem and I'm guessing you still have it after replacing the faulty sensor. I would have the car checked again in an effort to trace the cause of the problem.
