Citroën Ë-C4 and Ë-C4 X Model Range Enhanced with Powertrain Options

Citroën is stepping up the pace of electrification with a new offering that enhances its ë-C4 and ë-C4 X model ranges – thanks to a new battery pack, a more powerful electric motor and extended range of up to 260 miles. With the adoption of this new motor and battery combination on ë-C4 and New ë-C4 X, Citroën is the only generalist brand to offer two complementary electric vehicles with two powertrain options in the C-segment.

New larger 54kWh battery pack paired with a more efficient 115kW (156hp) electric motor will be offered on Citroën ë-C4 and New ë-C4 X.

The new ë-C4 and ë-C4 X models offer an increased all-electric WLTP range of circa 40 miles compared to the existing versions, due to the new 54kWh advanced-chemistry battery and a new, more efficient and powerful 115kW (136hp) hybrid synchronous electric motor (HSM), which provides an impressive 260Nm of torque.

We facilitate access to mobility for more private customers

The electric motor and battery enhancements reduce average energy consumption to 12kW/h, offering significant benefits in real-life customer use, even at temperatures close to 0°C. Despite the increased battery capacity, charging times are maintained – thus guaranteeing comfort in use.

Additional efficiency is achieved through the design of ë-C4 and New ë-C4 X. A smaller battery means less weight and less consumption, plus the capability of 100kW fast charging. Standard features include a heat pump, which uses a humidity sensor to maximise energy efficiency and cooling, the aerodynamic silhouettes of ë-C4 and New ë-C4 X, and A+ 18-inch tyres to reduce rolling resistance and minimise energy loss through friction.

Alongside the new all-electric models described above, Citroën UK has confirmed that order books will open for petrol and diesel versions of New C4 X – in order to meet demand from fleet operators and to facilitate access to mobility for more private customers. The ICE powertrains offered on C4 X will be: PureTech 100 Stop&Start six-speed manual, PureTech 130 Stop&Start EAT8 eight-speed automatic and BlueHDI 130 Stop&Start EAT8 eight-speed automatic.

Pricing and specification information for all the models described above will be released imminently and UK production will begin in July 2023.

New battery specification delivers improved energy density for enhanced driving pleasure and extended electric range of up to 260 miles (420 km), depending on version (WLTP cycle). Existing versions with 50kWh battery and 100kW (136hp) electric motor will continue, with WLTP range of up to 219 miles (ë-C4) and 222 miles (New ë-C4 X). In addition, several European countries that previously only sold New ë-C4 X – including the UK – will now open order books for petrol and diesel versions of New C4 X.
