<< Prev Page 2 of 3 Next >> Citroën Cactus' styling marries the aesthetic with the practical, the designers having sought to find the right volumes and extend efficiency to the smallest details. The idea was to keep only the essential and this approach allowed the designers to break free from classic automotive cues and explore new solutions to bring customers useful equipment and features.
With a shape that is both original yet familiar, the body styling of Citroën Cactus is easy to identify, with:
Pure and smooth surfaces in pearlescent white
Flowing contours
'Floating' roof and rear quarter panels
Contrasting and functional detailing such as Lama grey 'Airbumps', textured black wheel arches and gloss black roof rack
A bright and airy cabin with a large panoramic sunroof
A stand out component of the Cactus is the 'Airbump', located on the sides and bumpers of the car. Combining style with function, the 'Airbump' strengthens the appearance and personality of the car with its originality and personalisation possibilities. The supple material features a soft treatment that resists scratches and includes air capsules that absorb impacts.
Combining aesthetics with practical driver needs, the Citroën Cactus places importance on space and efficiency down to the last detail. Only the essentials remain, as the designers worked to break new ground in the form and function.
The Citroën Cactus boasts proportions optimised for efficiency and comfort with:
The dimensions of a compact hatchback (4.21 m long & 1.75 m wide)
An ideal balance between one-third glazed area and two-thirds wing surface
High ground clearance (21 cm) but with an optimised height of just 1.53 m
Reduced overhangs, with the wheels directly located at each corner
The smooth, flowing styling of Citroën Cactus evokes technology and perceived quality.
At the front, the Cactus hints at the visual styling of future C-line models and is characterised by:
Smooth surfaces showcasing the chevrons
Flowing lines with a seamless progression from bonnet to wing
A high-tech light signature with LED daytime running lights and lamps built in to the 'Airbumps'
The same principle is adopted at the rear with Citroën's 3D-effect LEDs incorporated into the large 'Airbump', which protects the boot area.
The unique, radical design adds to the feel-good factor within the ergonomic and comfortable interior. The absence of side and rear windows and B-pillars invites you to discover a cabin that has been completely reworked in terms of architecture, design, colours and materials. << Prev Page 2 of 3 Next >>
