2014 Citroën C1 first view

As expected, the all-new Citroën C1 city car is virtually identical to the recently-unveiled Peugeot 108.

The most obvious difference between the two French models is at the front end, where Citroën’s designers have juxtaposed circular and slim rectangular light clusters. At first glance it’s a peculiar and slightly awkward look, but the weirdness seems to wear off after a few subsequent viewings. Other distinctions include blacked-out A-pillars, restyled bumpers and altered rear lights.

Like the 108, the C1 will be offered in three- or five-door guises with a choice of traditional hatchback or open-roof ‘Airscape’ body styles.

Citroën has yet to release any detailed technical specs. However, it is promising that the 3.46 m (11’ 4”) long C1 is going to achieve highly competitive fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emissions figures thanks partly to a weight of just 840 kg (1,852 lbs).
