Citroën C6

The Citroën C6 is a saloon of 4.91 m in length. One of the best cars of its size to travel with convenience: the suspension filters bumps well and is generally very quiet. It is also one of the best places to travel in the rear because there is plenty of space in width (not both longitudinally and in height) and can take seats with electrical regulations (optional version "Exclusive"). Is for sale from 56,890 € (all prices).

It has some elements of new equipment at Citroën, the virtual screen in the windshield or the electric parking brake. Has a series of pedestrian protection system in cases of abuse.

The Citroën C6 is available with two engines: one petrol and one Diesel. Both are available only in combination with automatic switching (CAS) and six-speed with the level of equipment 'Exclusive'.

The gasoline engine is a six-cylinder 'V' indirect injection yields 211 HP. It's the same engine that is available in the range C5 (Saloon and Tourer).

The V6 HDi Diesel engine of 241 HP is back in the Citroën range and is also available on the C5. It is the most powerful diesel engine that has never marketed the brand. Has direct fuel injection through common (common-rail) and a dual variable-geometry turbocharger (one for each three cylinders). It has a torque of 450 Nm at 1600 rpm that delivers. The C6 with this engine achieves an acceleration of 0 to 100 km / h in 8.5 seconds (7.9 s in C5). Have an average fuel consumption of 7.4 l/100 km (as in C5).

Citroën C6 previously marketed with three different types of finishes (C6, C6 'Palas' and C6 "Exclusive") and three engines, two diesel (HDi 170 and HDi 204 hp hp) and petrol (3.0i V6 211 hp).

Has xenon headlights for short and long electronically controlled suspension, power seats, information projected on the windshield, two-zone climate control and electric parking brake. Also, the equipment series: the warning system of involuntary change lanes, browser, laminated side windows, leather upholstery, heated front and rear seats, voice control for certain functions, parking aid front and rear, alarm volumetric and hydropneumatic suspension. No other saloon of its features may have rear seats with electrical regulations (with which it reaches a high level of comfort).

Therefore, an Audi A6 or a BMW 5 Series with a similar price for something lower than the Citroën C6, but as the equipment is more expensive. Similar models are less expensive (like the Skoda Superb) but can not get certain items of equipment which the C6 itself.

Your equipment can compensate for its price range, at least for those who want everything you have and like the C6 as it is. The options list is very short and it is unlikely to set the taste of each. At C6 lacks some elements of equipment available on other models in its price, such as ventilated seats or climate more than two zones. There is a choice between different types of seating, lots of leather upholstery and other interior decorating possibilities for each client at ease.
