Citroën’s ë-C4 Electric has achieved a ‘Best Buy’ recommendation from UK’s leading consumer champion Which? following rigorous analysis by its testing team.



Which? ‘Best Buy’ is one of the ultimate consumer satisfaction accolades in the market, representing a product that has performed consistently well across the independent road and laboratory testing, as well as gained positive feedback from owners. The Which? team measured ë-C4 across a number of criteria, including reliability, safety, economy and comfort.




COMFORT-FOCUSED & IMPRESSIVE ALL-ROUNDER


Comfort on board Citroën ë-C4 Electric stood out to the Which? team. ë-C4 features the latest technologies from Citroën’s Advanced Comfort® programme, offering all-round comfort with a focus on every aspect of onboard wellbeing.



All ë-C4 models come standard with Citroën’s innovative suspension with Progressive Hydraulic Cushions which feature hydraulic bump stops that better control compression and rebound on uneven surfaces to deliver a "magic carpet ride". All ë-C4 models also feature Advanced Comfort® seats with high-density foam and an extra thick 15mm upper layer of textured memory foam to ensure optimum comfort on any journey.



ë-C4 forms part of the electrification strategy for Citroën, with the brand set to provide an electrified variant across its entire model in the range by 2025. ë-C4 Electric features a 50kWh lithium-ion battery pack paired with a 136hp electric motor producing 260Nm of torque. The efficient powertrain delivers a range of up to 219 miles (WLTP) and supports 100kW rapid charging, which enables an 80% charge in as little as 30 minutes.



ë-C4 is available in ‘Sense’, ‘C-Series Edition’ and the range-topping ‘Shine Plus’ trim. ‘Sense’ models come standard with LED headlights, 18-inch ‘Crosslight’ alloy wheels, power-folding mirrors, rear parking sensors and keyless entry & start.



A suite of safety equipment is also included as standard, including Active Safety Brake (video-assisted), Speed Limit Information, Lane Keeping Assist and Forward-Collision Warning. ‘Sense’ models are available from £29,995 MRRP.



ë-C4 ‘C-Series Edition’ models come equipped with Citroën’s quality HiFi system and a 10-inch touchscreen, equipped with Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto, as well as DAB digital radio, Bluetooth® connectivity and Citroën Connect Nav with ‘Real-Time Traffic’ and speed camera updates. Owners of ë-C4 Electric ‘C-Series Edition’ models will also enjoy the comfort of the heated leather steering wheel and heated front seats.



‘C-Series Edition’ models enjoy further safety and convenience features, including a head-up display, Active Cruise Control, Active Blind Spot Detection and the Safety Plus Pack. The latter includes Extended Traffic Sign Recognition and Active Safety Brake (video and radar assisted), with night-time and cyclist detection and is available from £31,995 MRRP.



The current best-seller in ë-C4 Electric’s range in the UK – the ‘Shine Plus’ trim – adds wireless smartphone charging, a HiFi speaker system with subwoofer, heated front seats and a ‘Hype Black’ interior ambience featuring black ‘Siena’ leather and black leather-effect textile seats with ‘Zephyr Grey’ stitching. ‘Shine Plus’ models are available from £34,995 MRRP.



As with all of Citroën’s range, ë-C4 Electric is available to buy online from the Citroën Store. The Store allows buyers the opportunity to configure and finance their new car all from the comfort of their home.
