Citroën C-Elysée


Despite his two world titles in a row in the World Championship Touring Car (WTCC), the C-Elysée is a great unobtrusive. It is above all a wise fairly compact four-door sedan (4.43 metres). The template style is rarely sold in France, as French market is not fond of this body type.


However, Citroen has finally decided to import the C-Elysée, while we only waited for really there: his career has already started in late 2012 in Turkey and then in many other countries, only a few copies of arriving home via proxies. Tight-lipped about this "new", the brand with the Rafters will sell from € 13,450, with a three-cylinder 1.2 petrol 82 hp air. This is € 960 more than its most direct rival, the new Fiat Tipo, led by a 1.4 95 bhp.


The C-Elysee can also receive the BlueHDi 100 Diesel, with € 16,450. This is again more expensive than Tipo 1.3 Multijet 95, available from € 14,990. But the equipment of this Citroën, announcing a generous trunk 506 litre, does not prove totally stripped if the steel wheels are content to 15 inches, air conditioning, Bluetooth radio, seat 1 / 3-2 / 3 or electrically adjustable door mirrors are standard. The C-Elysée is posed as an offer 100% reasonable, the antithesis of a C4 Cactus. But his ambitions remain measured, since only 2,000 copies should be available in France each year.
