Description
The Citroen E-c4 Electric Hatchback 100kW Shine 50kWh 5dr Auto stands out in the electric vehicle market by prioritizing supreme comfort and a distinctive crossover-inspired design. While many manufacturers focus on firm, sporty handling, Citroen has leaned into its heritage of ride quality, making this car one of the most relaxing ways to navigate potholed city streets or undulating country lanes. It offers a refreshing alternative for those who want the environmental benefits of an electric powertrain without the harsh ride often associated with heavy battery packs.
The driving experience is defined by the 100kW electric motor, which produces 136 horsepower and 260Nm of instant torque. This allows the E-c4 to glide away from traffic lights with a silent, linear surge, reaching 62 mph in a respectable 9.4 seconds. The 50kWh battery provides a range of up to 217 miles on a full charge, which is well-suited for the average UK daily commute. For longer trips, the car supports 100kW rapid charging, which can replenish the battery to 80% in approximately 30 minutes, ensuring that motorway stops are kept to a minimum. Practicality is another area where the E-c4 excels. The hatchback body style offers a 380-litre boot, which is identical to the petrol and diesel versions of the C4, meaning there is no compromise on luggage space for choosing the electric model. Passengers in the rear benefit from ample legroom and a flat floor, while the front passenger can take advantage of a unique integrated tablet holder built directly into the dashboard. For the driver who values a quiet, soft-riding, and technologically advanced vehicle that feels different from the standard hatchback crowd, the E-c4 Shine is a highly persuasive choice.
