The best French EV? - 2023 Citroen e-C4 X UK review

  • Sometimes your bum just needs some pampering - and with most other cars wanting to be as 'sporty' (uncomfortable) as possible, the Citroen e-C4 X promises huge levels of comfort from an EV costing a smidge over £30,000. But does it fulfil its magic carpet brief? How far can it really travel on a charge? Have I fallen for its weird saloon boot bum? Find out whether you should be sticking the e-C4 X on your EV shopping list, or whether you should be leaving it on le showroom floor.

    I saw this video and thought 'you're way more interesting than the FA cup semi final.' a good choice. And I'm not even remotely bothered by this object! Bravo

    Top quality review as always 👍🏼 Always appreciate how frank and unapologetic you are - You're like a nicer and less offensive to look at version Jeremy Clarkson. Take that how you like but it's meant well.

      Thank you for the kind comment - taken in the spirit in which it was intended!

    Personally I prefer the better practicality of the hatch. The only drawback on this saloon & the hatch version (apart from a lowish range & power) is the lack of a rear wiper. So it's nil points from me.
    Citroen should have made this as an Estate rather than a saloon.

    It won't do 200 miles. I test drove a hatch version and it did about 160 miles at 20 degrees Celsius.

      You did know to use the Eco mode when you want maximum range? The air con is still effective even if that warm outside.

    My dear Mr Rodie, I find this review to be excellent. The boot is the perfect size for my basket of baguettes.

    Please do an Audio test and give your opinion. I find that speakers in new cars are so weak unless you go for top spec.

      Just got back from a drive in it and with CarPlay they're not actually all that bad. Some decent bass with the EQ zeroed out. Not rattle-your-eyes, but it's clear and loud enough.

    To be honest Tim, it looks a bit odd but then again so does President Macron most of the time :)
