The
Citroën C6 has arrived. The latest addition to a
historic line of great
Citroëns, with a stunning look in keeping with the
Marque's reputation
for style, the C6 takes the grand tourer concept and
incorporates the
latest cutting-edge technology.
The C6 adds
the crowning touch to a wider and more complete
Citroën range,
extending from the C1 to the C8. The presence,
styling and executive
features of the C6 clearly identify it as an
executive model. It is a
car inspired by great Citroëns of the past – the DS,
CX and SM – whose
design and innovative technologies have helped the
Marque to establish
a strong heritage in large cars.
The C6 takes
the essential cues of executive saloons – elegance,
sophistication and
on-the-road presence – and combines them with the
Marque's own key
values. Derived from classic Citroëns and
continuously updated, these
values are expressed through avant-garde technology,
based on styling
and the pursuit of comfort, and through engines that
place the emphasis
on driveability rather than sheer power.

Through
its fluid and dynamic styling, the C6 is a highly
distinctive car.
Depending on the angle from which it is viewed, its
unique styling
brings to mind an elegant coupé or an executive
limousine.
The
exceptional on-board comfort takes the driver and
passengers into a
world of opulence. The roomy, spacious passenger
compartment uses
premium materials.
The driver's position, in particular, gives new
meaning to the concept
of ergonomics. Driving information is clear and
precise. The read-out
can also be shared with passengers by tilting the
central screen
located in the top part of the dashboard.
Key safety features include a height-adjustable
head-up display,
allowing the driver to concentrate on the road ahead,
a lane departure
warning system (LDWS) and xenon dual-function
directional headlamps.
Once again, Citroën has proved its ability to achieve
continuous innovation.
The C6 is a global concept, a balance of unique design
lines and
advanced technology creating an impression of advanced
safety and – of
course - comfort.
The C6 combines high levels of passive safety for
passengers (active
headrests and nine airbags amongst other features) and
pedestrians
(active bonnet system) with impeccable road manners
based on new
running gear with active suspension and electronically
controlled
springing and damping.
The C6 features double wishbone suspension and a
linked hub carrier at
the front, with a multi-link system at the rear.
This set-up gives it
real agility, as well as making full use of the V6
petrol and diesel
engines available with the 6-speed automatic gearbox.
As a result, the C6 combines precise wheel guidance
with impeccable
roadholding and perfect handling, whatever the
situation.
The C6 is produced at the Rennes site, where dedicated
quality teams inspect each vehicle individually.
