Vehicles manufactured in China - Xsara Picasso: a modern and innovative high-spec people-carrier



Citroën offers an extensive range of products adapted to the local market. A number of technical modifications are necessary to adapt vehicles to Chinese driving conditions. These include: increased ground clearance, modified suspension, gearbox protection, and adaptation to local fuel.

Presented at the Beijing Motor Show in 2000 and at Shanghai in 2001, the Xsara Picasso people-carrier is positioned at the top end of the range in China. Production began at Wuhan in November 2001. The PSA Peugeot Citroën plant in Vigo (Spain) sends Xsara Picasso body shells in knocked-down form for final assembly in China. The model is equipped with a choice of two petrol engines: 1.6i and 2.0i, assembled at Xiang Fan.
Attractive, roomy and modern, this car is an innovator on the Chinese market. Intended as a private vehicle for well-to-do private customers, the Xsara Picasso is pursuing a successful career on the growing people-carrier market.
