Citroen e-C4 overview
Editorial context for design, cabin, performance, practicality, and buyer notes.
Design
The e-C4 shares its silhouette with the standard third-generation C4, blending hatchback practicality with elevated crossover design cues. Distinctive turquoise color accents on the front bumper and side protective moldings indicate its electric status, along with model-specific badges. The lack of exhaust outlets further identifies the electric powertrain. The vehicle rides on standard 18-inch alloy wheels that complement its bold stance and modern front lighting setup.
Interior
The cabin features a modern layout centered around a standard 10-inch touchscreen infotainment display that supports Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. A digital instrument cluster is accompanied by a head-up display that projects essential driving info onto the windshield. The gear selector console houses a toggle switch with a dedicated 'B' mode to control regenerative braking levels, plus a quick-access button to view electric vehicle metrics. Depending on the trim, the interior offers heated front and rear seats, a heated steering wheel, and massaging front seats.
Performance
The e-C4 is powered by a front-mounted electric motor. The initial setup produces 100 kW (136 hp) and 260 Nm of torque, while an upgraded version delivers 115 kW (156 hp). Power is sent to the front wheels via a single-speed reduction gearbox. The 115 kW variant completes the 0-100 km/h sprint in 9.2 seconds, while the 100 kW variant takes 9.6 seconds. Both versions have a top speed electronically limited to 150 km/h. Charging the 50 kWh battery from 0 to 80% takes approximately 30 minutes when using a 100 kW fast-charging station.
Practicality
The e-C4 offers a 380-liter trunk space, which can be expanded to 1,250 liters when the 60/40 split rear seats are folded down. The interior seats five passengers, with adjustable seats and lumbar support for the driver. Practical storage spaces are distributed throughout the cabin, and the e-CMP platform ensures that battery integration does not compromise rear passenger legroom or cargo utility.
Safety and tech
Citroen equips the e-C4 with an array of active safety systems, including Level 2 semi-autonomous driving assist, adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, and active emergency braking. Standard and optional features include lane keep assist, blind-spot monitoring, driver fatigue alert, a rear-view camera, and parking sensors. The infotainment setup includes navigation, Bluetooth connectivity, multiple USB ports, and a wireless smartphone charger.
Buyer notes
When shopping for a used e-C4, buyers should check the motor configuration as specifications show both 100 kW (136 hp) and 115 kW (156 hp) variants. Trim levels, such as the Shine, add premium features like leather-accented steering wheels, a panoramic roof, heated seating, and advanced driving assistance. As equipment packages can vary between markets, confirming the exact options list, especially winter features like heated seats and steering wheel, is recommended.
