MULTIFORM

More than simply versatile, the C3 Picasso can be “adapted in an instant to suit our lifestyles and needs”.

Comprehensive and intuitive modularity

The C3 Picasso’s comprehensive, easy-to-use and intuitive modular design eliminates day-to-day constraints one by one.

Breakthrough modularity in the back

The rear seats slide back and forth over 150 mm to increase boot volume or leg room in the rear.
The seats split fold 60:40 and are entirely independent. They can be folded down with one hand in one simple movement using controls on the upper part of the seatback. This user-friendly function can also be controlled from the boot and is independent for both parts of the rear bench. To fold down, the seat slides back automatically and simultaneously.

Removable boot floor for a flat loading surface

The removable boot floor, an ingenious addition to the car’s overall versatility, can be positioned easily at two different levels:

• In the high position it is level with the boot sill, making loader easier on drivers’ backs. With the rear bench folded down, the loading surface is totally flat right up to the back of row one. Magnetic flaps fitted in the backs of the rear seats extend the flat surface between the bench and the boot floor. Whatever the positions of the seats, the three-part luggage cover entirely conceals the boot contents. The cover can also be stored under the boot floor.
• In the low position, the removable boot floor boosts load volume.

Even more versatility with the Voyage Pack

With the Voyage Pack, available as an option according to trim level, the front passenger seat back folds into desk position to increase load length to among the best in the class. Once again, the folding function is a one-movement, trouble-free affair, using an ergonomic control on the upper part of the seat back. With the seat back folded forward and the rear bench down, load length jumps to 2.41 m between the boot sill and the dashboard.

The Voyage Pack also boasts a ski flap. This feature has two parts: the first, fit snug in the seat back, folds away to provide a two-part cubbyhole, perfect for, say, a DVD player; the second part comes in the shape of a flap for transporting long objects, even in four-seater configuration.
The Pack also includes aircraft-style trays, with reading lights and cupholders.

Ingenious storage

The C3 Picasso is also unique in terms of its innovative and practical stowage compartments.

The glove box is one of the largest in the segment at 9 litres, big enough for a 1.5-litre bottle of water, for example. It features a dampened closing mechanism and is ventilated on air-conditioned models.

The C3 Picasso has two useful and distinctive pen holders, for the driver and front passenger. Located on the lower left part of the dashboard, the driver’s penholder is perfect for small objects such as badges or remote controls. The passenger gets a larger penholder spanning the width of the glovebox door. Both are finished with attractive and functional non-slip trim and feature subtle, 3D graining available in a range of colours according to trim level.

The driver’s station features another cubbyhole in the upper centre of the dashboard with a push-pull cover, dampened opening and soft-paint finish.

Further storage spaces include a cupholder, stowage flaps, map holders and boot stowage. The C3 Picasso has a place for each object and passenger.
