On the move in the Citroen C4, it’s quickly apparent that its wonderfully cosseting seats and standard-fit ‘hydraulic cushions’ (more commonly known as bump stops) are extremely effective at filtering out most potholes and road imperfections. Citroen has been keen to promote the comfort delivered by the C4, and it’s particularly apparent in the ride.
The Hybrid 145 features a 1.2-litre three-cylinder petrol engine and a six-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission with an in-built electric motor. These work together to produce a combined 145bhp and 230Nm of torque. This power is sent to the front wheels via a six-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.
We’d like more engagement from the electrical side of the hybrid system, because while the PureTech three-cylinder is a capable engine that serves many of Stellantis’s products well, it’s blown away by the all-electric Citroen e-C4 for refinement. With the C4’s focus on ride quality, the engine’s occasional grumbles are a little at odds with this.
