The Citroen C-Metisse Concept
Citroen Press Release
6 September 2006
Citroen is unveiling C-Metisse at the 2006 Paris Motor Show. Through this concept car, inspired by passion and reason, the Marque is exploring new paths dedicated to automotive pleasure. C-Metisse is a coupe of character, boasting a high level of on-board comfort and performance, while also respecting the environment.
With its elegant proportions, flamboyant bodywork, spectacular door design and extensive chrome, this elegant 4-seater 4-door coupe revives a passion for the most prestigious Grand Touring vehicles.
C-Metisse is not only a car to stir the soul of the onlooker. It also boasts real driving sensations with a driving position featuring the latest technologies, and a specially designed high-performance diesel hybrid drivetrain.
C-Metisse is based on the same future-oriented solution as the C4 HDi hybrid demonstration vehicle presented by Citroen at the start of the year apart from one key difference: the electric motors are installed in the rear wheels. This configuration is coherent with vehicle performance and optimises traction. Perfectly suited to the character of C-Metisse, the design reflects Citroen’s expertise in the various hybrid architectures, as well as demonstrating its commitment to cutting fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
