About the Citroën C-Crosser
Launched in 2007, the C-Crosser was Citroën's first foray into the SUV market, developed as part of a joint venture with Mitsubishi and Peugeot. While it shares its chassis and interior with the Mitsubishi Outlander, the C-Crosser is distinguished by its unique front-end styling and the fitment of PSA's refined 2.2-litre HDi diesel engine. It offers a practical seven-seat layout with a clever split-opening tailgate and a third row that folds flat into the floor. On the road, it prioritises comfort and stability over off-road prowess, featuring a switchable four-wheel-drive system with a lock mode for slippery conditions.
