Vintage Bronze Accents Adorn Interior and Exterior
Citroën's history began with André Citroën's first car in 1919. To celebrate its 100th anniversary this year, chic special editions of the compact hatchback "C3" and the MPV "C4 SpaceTourer" have been introduced. These models incorporate the brand's original double-chevron motif and feature vintage-inspired bronze accents throughout the interior and exterior. They will be available only in 2019.
The C3 features an original logo sticker on the front doors, with bronze accents applied to the fog lights and the C3's signature Airbumps. It is equipped with 17-inch black alloy wheels.
Inside, the cabin includes fabric combination seats with bronze stitching and a distinctive instrument panel.
The engine is a 1.2-liter three-cylinder turbo, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission driving the front wheels.
Body color options include three patterns: Blanc Pandan (white) with Noir Onyx (black) roof, Noir Perla Nera (black) with Brun Palladium (white) roof, and the new Grise Artense (silver) with Noir Onyx (black) roof, a first for the C3. The price is ¥2,580,000.

Grand C4 SpaceTourer Powertrain Renewed
The "Grand C4 SpaceTourer," with its 7-seat cabin, features a completely revamped powertrain. It now incorporates an Aisin 8-speed automatic transmission. The 1.6-liter gasoline turbo engine delivers an increased maximum output of 133 kW (180 ps) at 5,500 rpm, a gain of 15 ps over the previous model. The 2.0-liter diesel turbo engine produces 120 kW (163 ps) at 3,750 rpm, an improvement of 10 ps, and meets Euro 6.2 standards. Citroën highlights that the wider gear ratio spread between the 1st and 8th gears in the transmission is expected to improve fuel efficiency at higher speeds.
The "Grand C4 SpaceTourer Origins" equipped with this new powertrain is available with both gasoline turbo and diesel turbo engines.
The exterior includes original stickers, a panoramic glass roof with an electric sunblind, black door mirrors, and 17-inch alloy wheels. The interior features two-tone black and grey-beige fabric seats and large front headrests.
The "Origins" model is offered exclusively in Blanc Pandan. The standard "Grand C4 SpaceTourer" is available in four colors: Blanc Pandan, Noir Onyx, Sable, and Rouge Rubis.
Pricing for the "Grand C4 SpaceTourer Shine" is ¥3,770,000 for the gasoline turbo and ¥3,900,000 for the diesel. The "Origins" models are priced at ¥3,860,000 for the gasoline turbo and ¥4,110,000 for the diesel.
