Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

PROS
Unmistakeable looks,
great comfort,
agreeable electric version

CONS
You can't get a quick one.
But it wouldn't work anyway

By: 
topgear.com

The Citroën C4 is very temptingly priced for a coupé SUV, while comfort and refinement also impress. You do pay for its cushiness with roly-poly handling, though, and there are more practical options.

PROS
Comfortable ride
Little wind or road noise
Well priced

CONS
Body lean in bends
Boot is on the small side
No alarm on entry-level model

By: 
whatcar.com

PROS
Ride comfort and general quietness
Eager and efficient engines
Spacious, minimalist interior

CONS
Go elsewhere if you want sportiness
No hybrid models available
Divisive styling won't universally appeal

By:

The DS 3 Crossback E-Tense is a seriously stylish electric car with comfy suspension and a stunning interior but it’s let down by cramped back seats and limited electric range.

Pros
Fabulous interior
Very comfortable to drive
Plenty of personalisation options

Cons
Cramped back seats
Alternatives are cheaper…
… and have greater ranges

By: 
carwow.co.uk

Not the EV we’d recommend, but if you like the way it looks and battery-power suits your lifestyle then by all means.

Pros
Bit different to look at and sit in,
as practical as ICE car

Cons
Ride comfort,
inconsistent brake pedal,
awkward infotainment

By: 
topgear.com

The DS 3 Crossback E-Tense offers enough range for most people, but it's far from the best electric car on sale.

Pros
Choice of trim levels
Characterful design
Fast-charging capability

Cons
Shorter range than rivals
Not a huge boot
Feels heavy
