Citroen C8

Why Charters loves the Citroen C8

The Citroen C8 is all about flexibility - each passenger can adjust their seating and lighting (SX and Exclusive models), and airflow temperature. The rear passenger seats can be removed for added space - boosting the 225 litres available with all seats in place, to 2,948 litres if all 5 seats are removed.  And we love the fact that on the Citroen C8 SX and Exclusive models, both front seats will swivel to face second row seats - anyone for a picnic?

What the media say
Reviewing the Citroen C8, the Times' roadtester writes: "I've lost count of the number of glove boxes, cubbyholes and storage units on board; Citroën had clearly done the same, its best guess being 'almost 60'. Thoughtful touches abound, like the second wide-angle mirror to allow parents a panoramic view of the battlefield without interfering with the position of the main mirror. Its best trick, however, is the sliding rear side doors. Not only do these allow you to disgorge children in tight spaces, they can also be opened by remote control. The benefits for those laden with shopping are clear, but the entertainment factor should not be underestimated. Hiding behind trees and opening the doors to welcome unsuspecting passers-by left my three-year-old speechless with mirth."

Caring for the environment

Like all Citroen vehicles, the C8 is at least 85% recyclable and with the 2.0 HDI 16V 120hp engine, it returns 48.7mpg (combined cycle) and CO2 emission levels of 182g/km.  Remember with its capacity for up to eight passengers - the Citroen C8 helps reduce congestion, which is another environmental benefit.
