Detailed analysis of the Citroën C4 5p Exclusive Plus HDi 135 FAP CAS · 136 CV (2008-2009)
General description
The 2008 Citroën C4 was not just another compact; it was a statement of intent. In a market full of conservative proposals, Citroën opted for a car that enveloped you in a bubble of comfort and originality. This C4, in its Exclusive Plus trim with the powerful 136 HP HDi engine, represented the culmination of the brand's philosophy: to offer technology and well-being with an unmistakably French touch.
Driving experience
Getting behind the wheel is to feel the generous and constant thrust of its diesel engine. The 320 Nm of torque is noticeable from low revs, moving the car with an ease that inspires confidence on long trips. It doesn't seek sportiness, but serenity. The suspension filters out road imperfections with a mastery that makes you forget stress, and the 6-speed automatic transmission works smoothly, turning every journey into a relaxed and pleasant experience. It's a natural-born mile-eater.
Design and aesthetics
The design of the C4 is pure audacity. Its curved body lines and its very personal rear end made it stand out immediately. But it was inside where the magic happened. The fixed-hub steering wheel, a stroke of genius that concentrated the controls without them turning with the rim, and the central digital instrumentation, created a futuristic and unique driving position. It was a cabin that welcomed and surprised you in equal measure, a space designed to be different and memorable.
Technology and features
For its time, the C4 felt like a spaceship. The central translucent screen that displayed speed and other key information was a brilliant touch. The fixed-hub multifunction steering wheel allowed you to control almost everything without taking your hands off, an ergonomic and safety solution. In this Exclusive Plus trim, elements like dual-zone climate control or parking sensors positioned it as a technologically advanced and very well-equipped car.
Competition
In the competitive ring of compacts, the C4 faced giants like the Volkswagen Golf, the Ford Focus, or its cousin, the Peugeot 308. While the Golf boasted sobriety and quality, and the Focus a dynamic chassis, the Citroën C4 played a completely different card: that of supreme comfort and a design that broke the mold. It was the choice for those who didn't want the same car as everyone else, for those who valued comfort above all else.
Conclusion
The Citroën C4 HDi 135 CAS is much more than a car; it's an experience. It's a memory of a time when Citroën dared to innovate and excite us with unique solutions. A tireless, comfortable, and efficient travel companion that envelops its occupants in an atmosphere of tranquility and originality. It's not perfect, but its strong personality and focus on well-being make it a modern classic that leaves an indelible mark.
