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.
