Citroen C4

Citroën C4 wears its French eccentricity with confidence, pairing bold, sculpted styling with a supremely comfortable ride that turns mundane commutes into a gentler affair. If you value relaxed comfort, clever practicality and a car with personality rather than pretence, the C4 is a charming, sensible choice — and it won't make you miss the usual hot‑hatch theatrics.

A very comfortable car, but with a flaw I noticed: very high door sills, which you really feel when getting in.

Lack of soundproofing due to aerodynamics (wind noise, or noise from tire rolling — it would be helped a lot if it came from the factory with Continental tires)
Thank you.

Very good in terms of power. Less good on sound and getting in because of a protruding dashboard.
