Advanced ecological features

 

Zoom

To achieve real environmental impact, Citroën's objective has always been to market technologies and vehicles that are affordable to the greatest number.

 The objective with C-Cactus is to go one step further, by bringing out a car whose hybrid HDi drivetrain makes it truly ecological car, but that can be sold at the same price as an entry-level family car.

With its diesel hybrid drivetrain combining a 70 bhp DIN HDi diesel engine with a particulate filter and an electric motor providing additional power of 30 bhp DIN, C Cactus consumes just 2.9  l/100 km with CO2 emission levels of 78 g/km over a combined cycle.

In urban use, ZEV (Zero Emission Vehicle) mode provides silent, all-electric operation. On journeys involving successive acceleration and deceleration, the hybrid system limits fuel consumption by using both types of energy.
