C-MÉTISSE
PASSION AND REASON
Citroën is unveiling C-Métisse at the 2006 Paris Motor
Show. Through this concept car, inspired by passion and
reason, the Marque is exploring new paths dedicated to
automotive pleasure. C-Métisse is a coupé of character,
boasting a high level of on-board comfort and
performance, while also respecting the environment.
With its elegant proportions, flamboyant bodywork,
spectacular door design and extensive chrome, this
elegant 4-seater 4-door coupe revives a passion for the
most prestigious Grand Touring vehicles.
C-Métisse is not only a car to stir the soul of the
onlooker. It also boasts real driving sensations with a
driving position featuring the latest technologies, and
a specially designed high-performance diesel hybrid
drivetrain.
C-Métisse is based on the same future-oriented solution
as the C4 HDi hybrid demonstration vehicle presented by
Citroën at the start of the year apart from one key
difference: the electric motors are installed in the
rear wheels. This configuration is coherent with vehicle
performance and optimises traction. Perfectly suited to
the character of C-Métisse, the design reflects
Citroën's expertise in the various hybrid architectures,
as well as demonstrating its commitment to cutting fuel
consumption and CO2 emissions.
A high-spec vehicle, C-Métisse also places considerable
emphasis on passenger comfort. The vast cabin features
three exceptionally comfy seats upholstered in white
leather.
