VERSATILITY
ROOM FOR INDIVIDUALS
The rst nice surprise when you get into a Citroën C3 Pluriel is just how spacious it is – a
true 4-seater, but that’s just the start. Is it to be the panoramic saloon today or the cabriolet?
Or perhaps the full on fresh air spider? Who cares, you can change your mind because the
Citroën C3 Pluriel is happy to change with you.
BE FREE, BE SAFE
Citroën C3 Pluriel is packed with active and passive safety features. Complementing its
responsive, sure-footed handling is ABS with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) and
Emergency Braking Assistance (EBA). Then there’s accurate, speed sensitive power steering
and automatic hazard warning lights that activate when the car decelerates suddenly.
A reinforced body shell, protective roof arches and four airbags surround you should the
worst happen.

SENSATIONAL SENSODRIVE
It feels good to relax and let an automatic do the gear shifting… but then it’s great
to get involved and make ngertip gear selections with a manual. Well forget the
either/or, because with Citroën C3 Pluriel 1.6i 16V, there’s no dilemma. The
SensoDrive paddle shift, ve speed sequential gearbox brings both. So whether
you’re in the urban stop and start or out on the open road, you’ve always got the
perfect change – versatility in a box? Oh yes.

ENVIRONMENTAL
COMMITMENT
INTRODUCING A MORE
ECOLOGICAL CAR
The Citroën C-Cactus concept, a car
designed on ec
ological principles. It includes
a signicant proportion of recycled or
recyclable materials and, like the plant
it is named after, it is low on liquid
consumption. At the same time, Citroën
C-Cactus is designed to be no more
expensive than a mid-range family car.
This can be attributed to the use of new
materials and to a rational design process
using a smaller number of parts. Citroën
C-Cactus is an essential vehicle reecting a
new vision of the car, many of its thoughts
and themes will appear in modern Citroën
vehicles to come.
AIRDREAM - A BENCHMARK
When it comes to the environment we
wanted to show our genuine commitment
as well as our profound expertise, so we
have devised a benchmarking scheme
with the signature ‘Airdream reserved
exclusively for the cleanest vehicles in our
range. To qualify for the Airdream signature,
vehicles must meet three standards:
1. a) CO
2
emissions of 120g/km or less
b) tted with DPFS with CO
2
below 158g/km.
2. Manufacturing quality of ISO14001.
3. 95% of recoverable materials.
GREEN EFFICIENCY. CITRN HAS BEEN PIONEERING CLEANER, MORE
FUEL-EFFICIENT MOTORING, SUCH AS THE COMMON RAIL HDi ENGINES
NOW FITTED IN ALL NEW CITRN DIESELS, LONG BEFORE ALL THE HYPE...
CITROËN HAS ALWAYS BEEN AT THE FOREFRONT OF GREENER TECHNOLOGY AND THE CITROËN C3 PLURIEL
IS NO EXCEPTION. TODAY, WE HAVE ONE OF THE UK’S WIDEST RANGES OF LOW EMISSION VEHICLES – THREE
OF WHICH ARE IN THE TOP FOUR FOR LOW CO

HIGH-PRESSURE DIRECT
INJECTION DIESEL ENGINE
Our HDi diesel engines operate with the fuel under
extremely high pressure, enabling microscopically precise
injection control. With this level of management it’s possible
to inject at different times during the same engine stroke
allowing total control over the combustion process. This
has allowed our engineers to reduce carbon monoxide
emissions by 40%, unburned hydrocarbons by 50% and
engine particulates by 60%. Fuel consumption is 20%
lower than a prechamber diesel engine, resulting in an
equivalent reduction in CO
2
emissions and thanks to the
torque available at low engine speed it could be argued that
driveability is now better than in petrol engined cars.
SENSODRIVE
A revolutionary alternative to conventional gearboxes,
Citroën’s innovative SensoDrive allows you to operate
in either ‘manual’ or ‘automatic’ modes. ‘Manual’ gear
shifts are made using the paddles by the steering wheel,
or the sequential lever. In ‘automatic’ mode the gearbox
will control gear changes for you, maximising your drive
comfort and optimising fuel consumption – to the order of
3 to 5% lower than a conventional manual gearbox, also
helped by a sixth gear.
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING
SYSTEM (ABS)
Computer-controlled braking assistance designed to
prevent the wheels from locking under extreme braking.
This enables the car to continue being steered and
therefore controlled during this braking incident. Citroën
C3 Pluriel’s ABS system is further enhanced with EBA and
EBD (see below).
EMERGENCY BRAKING
ASSISTANCE (EBA)
As drivers we nd it difcult to instinctively brake very hard,
but this is often what is needed in those rare emergency
situations. The EBA system recognises our ‘attempt’
to brake hard and in combination with the ABS and
EBD systems instantly applies the maximum stopping
power possible.
ELECTRONIC BRAKEFORCE
DISTRIBUTION (EBD)
A conventional ABS system cannot account for any of the
four wheels wanting to lock more quickly than the others
(for example, two of the wheels may be on snow and two
on tarmac). EBD reads the deceleration rate of each wheel
individually and applies the ABS principles accordingly.
ISOFIX
A standardised and more simple method for installing
child seats, each seat is ‘clicked’ into place via a three
point system. On Citroën C3 Pluriel, Isox is installed on
the two rear seats.
ON-BOARD TRIP COMPUTER
Citroën C3 Pluriel’s multi-function on-board trip computer
provides you with information at your ngertips. At the
touch of a button you can view a range of data like fuel
consumption, average speed and mileage possible at your
current fuel level.
