A four-seater MPV sounds...
A four-seater MPV sounds like a contradiction in terms ò€“ but thatò€™s exactly what Citroen is planning with its C4 Picasso Lounge.
First seen at the Frankfurt Motor Show, the new range-topper will be the companyò€™s poshest-ever MPV and feature a host of gadgets. HowÒever, perhaps the biggest surprise is the four-seat layout.
Unlike the standard car ò€“ which has three compact seats in the rear ò€“ the Lounge gets two leather trimmed captainò€™s chairs, with lots of shoulder room on either side. A high-spec DVD entertainment system, sat-nav and piano-black glossy trim panels are all expected to appear on the spec list, along with Citroenò€™s clever ò€˜mood lightingò€™ system and a panoramic windscreen. The moves comes as the firm alters its European production to meet demand for its mid-sized MPV. The C4 Picasso is comfortably Citroenò€™s most popular car in the UK and is currently outselling Fordò€™s S-MAX. Although the company has yet to confirm a launch date or prices for the Lounge, itò€™s set to hit Britain in spring, costing around Ò£23,000.
