Citroën’s fully electric models in the C segment, ë-C4 and ë-C4 While it does not increase the charging time with the increased battery capacity, it can be charged from 1 to 2 in 30 minutes with 100 kW fast charging (DC).
While Citroën continues to stand out as the only brand offering two electric vehicles that complement each other in the C segment with the ë-C4 and ë-C4 X, it carries this claim forward by further developing the vehicles. Citroën is preparing to offer its new high-performance ë-C4 and ë-C4 X versions to customers, which can reach a range of up to 420 km in the WLTP cycle. The cars, whose range has increased from 360 km to 420 km compared to the first version, take their competitive position to an even higher level with their new 54 kWh battery and more efficient engines producing 115 kW (156 HP) power. Thanks to the increased range, Citroën strengthens its claim to meet customers’ mobility needs while maintaining its optimum range and cost-oriented approach. The strategically determined battery size and 100 kW fast charging function offer versatile use while also supporting a competitive price positioning. Both electric models combine the interior space and in-cabin usability features of the C4 and C4 X models with internal combustion engines with the advantages of the electric powertrain system.
More focus on efficiency with the new electric engine
ë-C4 and ë-C4 The motor and battery of the new electric powertrain systems are designed to be more efficient and take advantage of significant technological advances. The permanent magnet synchronous electric motor is replaced by a hybrid synchronous electric motor (HSM) with a power of 115 kW or 156 HP. Therefore, 15 kW (20 HP) additional power is provided. The engine also produces 260 Nm of torque from the first moment of movement. The new 54 kWh battery has an additional capacity of 4 kWh compared to the previous battery pack. The compact battery, consisting of 102 cells and 17 modules, has a liquid thermal system and a standard heat pump for fast charging. The high-voltage lithium-ion battery has a higher nickel content, � nickel, manganese and cobalt instead of � nickel, manganese and cobalt. This provides better energy density and longer battery life. All these technological developments offer a range of up to 420 km (Average WLTP cycle), an increase compared to the current version. There is also energy efficiency, which reduces average energy consumption to 12 kW/hour. In addition to the increase in range, it provides a range increase of up to 30 km in urban use, even at temperatures close to 0°C.
The efficiency of the electric motor, battery and energy recovery function contribute to the range. In addition, the design of C4 and C4 X also supports efficiency. The compact battery size means less weight and therefore lower consumption. Charging times are optimized thanks to the 100 kW DC fast charging feature. Standard features such as a heat pump with humidity sensor are available for high energy efficiency in heating and cooling. 18-inch A energy class tires reduce rolling resistance and minimize energy loss due to friction. The C4 X silhouette extending to the trunk lid reveals a fluid and dynamic profile that optimizes aerodynamics.
Although the battery capacity increases, charging times do not increase. Thus, the ease of use and practicality features remain the same. The new electric motor of the ë-C4 and ë-C4 In addition, ë-C4 and ë-C4
Achievable, practical and convenient electric transportation
Suitable for daily use, ë-C4 and ë-C4 X offer an accessible electric transportation solution that meets different travel habits. The new and more powerful 115 kW (156 HP) electric motor and new 54 kWh battery, which will be offered with Shine Bold, the top equipment level in both ë-C4 and ë-C4 X models, provide more driving pleasure, range and versatile use.
Both electric solutions meet the promises of Citroën’s ë-comfort concept. Smooth and comfortable driving feeling provided by the engine without vibration, noise and exhaust smoke; It supports Citroën’s signature Advanced Comfort features, including innovative suspension and seats. Smooth and enjoyable driving without gear changes is supported by fast-responsive driving features thanks to the instantly available 260 Nm torque. Electric driving with zero CO2 emissions and no fuel odor is provided for free and free access in areas with traffic restrictions.
