ABS + EBD + EBA
Standard ABS electronically regulates braking
to avoid locking wheels, so the driver can still
safely steer in an emergency. Connected to
the ABS, Electronic Brakeforce Distribution
(EBD) ensures that braking pressure is evenly
applied to all wheels so that should the
need arise, all braking power can effectively
be used. In an emergency there is also
Emergency Braking Assistance (EBA). This
technology automatically maximises braking
effort when it detects strong input. This
compensates for the fact that many people
don’t brake enough under pressure and it
reduces stopping distances.
ALWAYS ON COURSE
Citroën’s cutting edge Lane Departure Warning
System (LDWS) as part of the optional
Detection Pack on Exclusive models works
at speeds above 50mph. By using infra-red
sensors, this ingenious system detects any
crossing of white lines. If the car drifts out
of lane without the indicators being used,
vibration is felt through the left or right side of
the driver’s seat, depending on the direction of
drift. It’s a simple, inspired way of letting you
know that corrective action is needed.
FRONT & REAR
PARKING SENSORS
Parking your new Citroën C4 Picasso or
Grand C4 Picasso Exclusive shouldn’t add
to the burden of a busy day. Optional front
and standard rear parking sensors enable
you to manoeuvre safely and quickly into
the tightest spots, fully aware of hidden
obstacles. Rear parking sensors are also
optional on VTR+ models.
SOME ASSISTANCE
Citroën C4 Picasso and Grand C4 Picasso
are tted with a Hill Start Assist function that
helps the driver to set off or manoeuvre on
gradients. When the brake pedal is released,
the ESP automatically maintains a stationary
position for up to two seconds, offering the
driver the time to move their foot from the
brake to the accelerator without the vehicle
moving forwards or backwards on a slope.
INTELLIGENT TRACTION
CONTROL SYSTEM
Citroën’s unique new Intelligent Traction
Control System, standard on all Citroën
C4 Picasso and Grand C4 Picasso manual
and EGS models, helps you get safely where
you need to go. It means even more dynamic
road handling, active safety on sliding
surfaces and impeccable steering. The
Intelligent Traction Control System regulates
each driving wheel independently in snow,
ice, and rain giving the Citroën C4 Picasso
and Grand C4 Picasso improved traction in
difcult conditions.
