In this review, we are going to take a closer look at the Citroen C1. We will examine the details about the Citroen C1 under three main categories such as The Features of the Citroen C1, The Fuel Consumption of the Citroen C1 and Basic Characteristics of Citroen C1. These categories prepared for explaining the vehicle from any perspective. Before beginning the review, I would like to share some general information about the history of the Citroen C1. It is a city car that has been manufactured by the French automaker Citroen since 2005. Developed as a part of the project called B-Zero, the C1 car was a model that Citroen launched intending to come to the forefront in the City Car class. The new generation of the car, which was introduced to the public at the Geneva Auto Show in 2014, continues to represent Citroen in the City Car class with its two-generation history. The car is assembling at facilities in the Czech Republic.
The Features of the Citroen C1
In this part of the review, we are going to focus on the features of the Citroen C1. We can start with the exterior design of the Citroen C1. When we look at the exterior design of the car, it is obvious that it has a much wider and more impressive design than previous generations. The new generation C1 seems to have undergone a very detailed renovation to make a difference in the City Car class. The body of the vehicle, which was much more compact in the previous generation, has become much longer and wider with the new generation. The wide and round headlights at the front and slim LED daytime running lights look very attractive. The fluidity and sharpness of the body lines make the car look very dynamic and sporty, despite being a city car. The colour options used for exterior paint are also quite remarkable. Now, we are moving on to the interior design of the Citroen C1. The interior design of the car has a very energetic and bright design like the exterior. The same colour cabin details as the body paint are the first thing that catches your attention when you enter. When this energetic atmosphere meets with a very simple yet useful cabin layout, a very spacious cabin area emerges compared to a City Car. This situation multiplies your enjoyment of travel. The simple control layout on the centre console allows both the driver and passengers to easily reach their needs. So, no one gets distracted and the C1 contributes to a safe travel experience.
The Fuel Consumption of the Citroen C1
Now, we are going to focus on the fuel consumption of the Citroen C1. We usually work on popular engine types and making analyses on them by checking details for an efficient fuel consumption analysis. While choosing the right car, you need specific and simple information. That is why we are using this distinction method to make things easier for you. We use two main categories to make a useful distinction such as The Most Economical One and The Most Powerful One. Citroen C1 has got two standard engine varieties such as 1.0 and 1.2. We are going to analyse two of them as the most economical and the most powerful one. We can start with the most economical one which is 1.0. It has got a three cylindered engine structure with a 998 cm3 size. It is using a Petrol feed fuel system so we can say that it is a Petrol type engine. It can produce 72 HP and 6000 RPM Torque. According to the official factory data, 1.0 has got a 4,0lt/100km (which refers to 71 MPG in the UK) mpg performance in Urban usage. However, this fuel consumption rate decreasing to 3,0lt/100km (which refers to 94 MPG in the UK) in Extra Urban usage such as Highways or Long-Distance Trip. When we combine these mpg data, we get a 3,0lt/100km (which refers to 94 MPG in the UK) average mpg performance. Now we will focus on the most powerful engine, which is 1.2. It has got a three cylindered engine structure with a 1199 cm3 size. It is a Petrol Type Engine which produces 82 Horsepower and 5750 RPM Torque. 1.0 has got a 5,4lt/100km (which refers to 52 MPG in the UK) fuel consumption in Urban usage. On the other hand, this MPG rate decreasing to 3,7lt/100km (which refers to 76 MPG in the UK) in Extra Urban usage. When we gather these two fuel consumption data, we get a 4,3lt/100km (which refers to 66 MPG in the UK) average fuel consumption data.
