CITROËN CACTUS M
|
At the Frankfurt International Motor Show, CITROËN is
premiering a concept car inspired by the Méhari: the
CITROËN CACTUS M.

Ingenious
with a strong focus on leisure: Through its
design, the Citroën Cactus
M turns leisure into a lifestyle, and places fun
at the heart of the
automotive experience. The interior illustrates
this approach, using
materials inspired by open-air activities. Ready
for all sorts of
adventures, the cabin can even be hosed down
thanks to the drainage
outlets integrated in the foot wells. Inspired
by the world of surfing,
the seats are designed to resemble wetsuits and
are upholstered in a
brightly coloured neoprene waterproof fabric.
The Citroën Cactus M is a
modular vehicle, with a rear arch that enables
passengers to carry all
their equipment, such as wakeboards or
surfboards. Everything is
designed for comfort, ease of use and peace of
mind.

At ease on all types of terrain
The Citroën Cactus M concept has also been
designed to head off the
beaten track, to explore and open up new
horizons. Whatever the
activity, weather or road conditions, everything
is designed to ensure
a relaxing ride for the occupants. On all types
of terrain, the Grip
Control function optimises traction for a
assured ride anywhere. The
Cactus M also inspires a sense of extreme
freedom with a modular cabin
that turns into a ‘couchette’ and a roof that
can be made into a tent.
The inflatable roof features an innovative
operating mechanism and
provides welcome protection in the event of
rain. The Citroën Cactus M
concept also features on-board technologies for
everyday use with all
the helpful equipment found on the C4 Cactus.
This includes the central
Touch Drive interface and the Easy Push gearbox
system.

The Cactus M concept is a modern take on the
values that led to the development of the
Méhari. These values relate
to comfort, well-being and leisure, which have
always been part of
Citroën’s expertise. When viewed alongside the
C4 Cactus and the
Aircross concept, the Citroën Cactus M concept
clearly illustrates the
vitality of the brand and the coherence of its
approach.
