Detailed analysis of the Citroën C4 Picasso Exclusive Plus e-HDi 110 Airdream CMP6 · 111 CV (2010-2011)
General description
The 2011 Citroën C4 Picasso is not just an MPV, it's a statement of intent. It was born to redefine family travel, turning every journey into a bright and comfortable experience. It's a car that embraces you from the moment you enter, prioritizing the well-being of its occupants above all else.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel, the C4 Picasso envelops you in a bubble of tranquility. Its 111 hp e-HDi engine moves the vehicle smoothly, without sporty pretensions, but with surprising efficiency for its time thanks to the Stop & Start system. The suspension masterfully filters out irregularities, inviting a relaxed drive. The CMP6 automated manual gearbox, although somewhat slow in its transitions, contributes to that feeling of a stress-free journey. The real magic lies in the panoramic visibility and the light that floods the cabin, making you feel like you're in a rolling viewpoint.
Design and aesthetics
Its design is bold and timeless. Citroën broke the mold with the 'Visiospace' concept, creating a futuristic silhouette dominated by the immense panoramic windshield that merges with the roof. The thin front pillars and large glass surfaces not only improve visibility but also create a unique connection with the outside. It's an intelligent design, thought from the inside out, where form follows the function of creating a living space on wheels.
Technology and features
For its time, the C4 Picasso was at the forefront. The central digital instrument cluster was its hallmark, concentrating all information clearly and modernly. This Exclusive Plus version came loaded with amenities, such as dual-zone climate control, parking sensors, and a complete infotainment system. The e-HDi engine with its innovative start-stop system and the automated manual gearbox represented the brand's effort towards efficiency and ride comfort.
Competition
In a very competitive segment, the C4 Picasso faced titans like the Renault Scénic, its natural arch-nemesis that played with similar cards of modularity and comfort. Other significant rivals were the Ford C-MAX, which offered more dynamic handling, the sober and efficient Volkswagen Touran, and the SEAT Altea XL, with a slightly sportier approach.
Conclusion
The Citroën C4 Picasso is more than just a means of transport; it's a life companion for the modern family. Its commitment to light, space, and exceptional ride comfort makes it a sanctuary on wheels. Although its automated manual gearbox requires some getting used to and doesn't aim to thrill with its speed, it wins you over with its ability to make every kilometer feel like part of the vacation. A car with an unmistakable soul.
