New Citroen C3 Picasso

Why Charters loves the Citroen C3 Picasso

We love the originality of the C3 Picasso especially its "magic box" silhouette and all the clever features - such as aircraft style tables on the back of the front seats in the Exclusive model.  The VTR+ and Exclusive C3 Picasso also have a handy child surveillance mirror, so you can keep your eye on any rear seat adventures.

Charters' favourite feature of the Citroen C3 Picasso

The C3 Picasso is all about space and versatility.  The generous interior can be flexibly altered - the rear of the front passenger seat folds flat meaning you can accommodate loads up to 2.41 metres in length.  The rear seat splits 60/40 and can be folded with one hand.  The rear seat backs can be tiltered by 23 or 28 degrees and both slide 15 cm independently.  At Charters, we also love the Spacebox storage system which offers flexibility and up to 1506 litres of boot space.  With a removable, adjustable boot floor the load area is perfectly flat.  And, there are lots of handy storage areas.

Charters' best buy

What the media say
The Daily Telegraph says: "The latest Picasso small MPV has so much style, space and storage that you might find yourself smitten even before you turn the key."  The C3 Picasso was also named ‘Best MPV' in the 2009 What Diesel Car of the Year awards.

Caring for the environment

The Citroen C3 Picasso offers two advanced 16V petrol engines with low emissions and excellent fuel economy, whilst its two diesel engines are amazingly economical.  The 90hp diesel model has ultra low emissions of 125 g/km of CO2 - whilst the 100hp disel C3 Picasso fatures a diesel particulate filter system and is one of Citroen's Airdream signature "green" models. 

As well as the choice of four engines, each with a five speed manual gerabox, there are three specification levels: VT, VTR+and Exclusive.  Your choice can be further personalised by a range of options and stylish accessories - including roof bars, roof boxes, ski and snowboard carriers and bicycle carriers.
