By far the best channel for car reviews. Im really put off by UK reviewers with their negative attitude against everything originating from France. Plus this channel goes much more thoroughly through the cars, 2-3 times longer videos. Great channel.
Hello Thomas! We had already paid a deposit on a renowned car when unexpectedly we came to know about the C4 Cactus. As soon as we saw it in the showroom, yes, I can say, we "fell in love" with it and we could not but cancel the deposit for the C4 Cactus! Nothing to regret and very happy. We agree with your comment in the sense of a hate or love relationship vis-a-vis the Cactus. You just hit the nail on its head! Ours is the Shine 16 diesel automatic with panoramic. That forward head movement during gear change is reduced to nil the more you drive and the way you drive the car. Of course it's not the perfect car...but, who or what is perfect? I enjoyed your review. Very clever, honest and objective. Thank you. Joe
I came here because I just got a Cactus which I love so far, anyway, love your review, your remarks are so funny which made it fun to watch till the end or else I would've just watched half way. Thank you.
thank you for a very good detailed review, that also accomodates the fact that we are all different"geometries" and so may feel differently about the car comfort.
Very good review, thank you. I own this car, ETG 6, Diesel, 100HP, Baltic Blue, mica blue chairs, panoramic sun roof. To be well understood, I have to highlight that I drive as a company car, a Skoda Superb, Laurin & Klement - 190HP, DSG, full options, in any meaning. Of course, there is no match between those two...but... On short...I drove many cars,of many kinds and sizes, so far...Citroen C4 Cactus is surprisingly the most liked car. Is comfortable, soft in suspensions. elastic in gearbox, it has enough power and torque, when needed. Every time I use it I have the feeling of leaving in holiday. The automated gearbox is superb...and you know what? It keeps you from making stupid things on the road. You know the car is not aggressive, so you have to adapt your driving style accordingly. The drive is smooth, soft, and relaxing The panoramic roof worth's every penny. I was afraid of having to much heat on sunny days , but we just left behind some days over 40 deg. Celsius and Cactus was cooler than Skoda Superb, both kept in the same parking lot, in direct sun. For me and my family Citroen C4 Cactus is the car that makes us smile . If you are looking for a nice, simple, smooth, silent and comfortable car, you can't be wrong with it. If you are looking for a powerful, more spacious, exquisite car, than you have to look somewhere else.
Hello Thomas! 11 months have passed since I bought the Cactus C4, as you can see from the comments section of Autogefuhl. I enjoy every meter I drive it. True in the beginning I was worried if I had made the right decision in buying the Cactus because of that forward head jerk when the semi automatic changes gear from first gear upwards (not downwards, funny enough). From experience, now, I learned that one has to "learn" how to drive a semi automatic car even if I have been driving cars since licence age (or before - sheeee). When I "feel" that the car is going to change gear, I lift my foot from the gas pedal - just as when changing gear on a manual car you have to press on the clutch and lift up the gas pedal. In doing so NO FORWARD HEAD JERKS! I have discussed this with our local dealer and in fact I was told that they are advising new clients how to drive the semi auto Cactus. Thomas you are very "hard" on your reviews. A perfectionist approach. But that makes your reviews more true, objective and interesting. Keep it up and be careful on the road! joe
Thank you for your complete and thorough review of this hate/love car. If I do become an owner of the cactus next week I will add my feedback. Until then, keep up the good work.
Really like the Honest review. I fully agree with your review, the good points and the bad points. I do think the car looks different. Please keep the reviews coiming Thomas I really enjoy them. KInd Regards,
Citron you need to change these elememts for your next update. 1. sliding rear window, equally cheap but let in much more air. 2. split back seats, make them fall flater as well 3. larger back opening so the boot floor can be accessed without intrusion. 4. a nob for the air con, touch screen is simply too complicated 5. a f1 like rev indicator on top of the speedometer, wont be expensive to implement. 6. a more rigid manual gear nob if possible but i wont expect much
you do realise Citroen never check youtube? you'll need to write them a formal lesson, a little tip, if you misspell their name, they may not listen to you
The automated manual is very good. If you accept that's it's not an automatic, but simply a robotised manual, lightweight, so a great addition to fuel mpg, you have to learn how to drive it, gentle pressure on the accelerator works perfectly, and it picks up speed quickly, kicking down heavily on the pedal simply causes the nodding head issue, the robotised manuals give better mpg than the 5 speed manual gear, and believe me, once you learn how to use it, it is as smooth as silk. Brilliant
Interesting to read that. I really like the front "bench" in the automatic version of the car and I don't like rowing gears but almost all reviewers talk about how bad the quality of the automated version is.
Aden Aden-Farah best to view as a robotised manual, it behaves like a manual, but once you get used to it, it changes very sweetly, the problem with some owners of robotised manuals is that they assume there a fully fledged automatic, and expect it to behave like an automatic, and press fully on acceleration creating that jerky effect, gentle acceleration provides smooth changeovers. The beauty of the robotised manual is that it provides similar mpg to the standard manual, so one has the best of both worlds, a car that can change smoothly like an automatic, and also provides one with excellent mpg like a standard manual, I have driven all over the country and it's a brilliant car.
I wish Citroen would bring cars like these to Brazil :( I would totally buy instead of having a normal looking Honda Fit, it seems to suit my age idk haha I really enjoyed the whole idea of the colors in the panel and the seats. Much much better than just have black leather or some random fabric. Great review, very conclusive! I really enjoyed watching.
Maybe if they specified seat size, so one could order a seat that fits there body frame? I think it's a very important issue that should be addressed with smaller vehicles
Sehr gute Review. Ich habe mir zwar jetzt den Mazda 3 gekauft aber den Cactus finde ich sehr interessant. Citroën ist nun keine Automarke, die ich mir kaufen würde, allerdings ist das Design einfach polarisierend, mutig und das ist klasse! Man muss es nicht mögen, allerdings bringt der Cactus und der neue C3 endlich visuelle Abwechslung in den Automobil Alltag. Citroën hat es in Deutschland nicht leicht aber ich denke, mit dem Design werden sie erfolgreicher sein als bisher.
Great review, I love that you get around every little detail :-) I am a bit torn regarding this car. I love the design (both inside and outside) and all of the different details, but I do not like the quality. I have not driven it, only touching and sitting. Everything feels so cheap and in Denmark it is not that cheap, at least not in the top line with the big diesel engine.
+Kennet Matthiesen i went for the diesel engine since the petrol was to light (in my opinion) if you want to have a better price buy a "directors" edition wich i did, its used by the car salesman for a short while and i got a 7000 euro discount and it only had 6500 km and 3 more options then its Original class price
Cool review but not sure you have driven the 110hp 3-cyl turbo engine which is a marvel on quite heavier cars such as the Peugeot 308 or the C4 I loaned the other day. HDI sounds so guttural I don't think I'd stand it for long other than city driving but at least this one is rated Euro6... Anyway, I think they have done a nice job reinterpreting the 2CV without having to resort to neo-retro stuff such as the MINI or the Beetle.
Ted McScorcher Thanks! I agree. Well that was that engine... but tbh I am convinced of either of the engines that are available. From an owner i heard now though that the petrol ones are quite petrol saving.
"Welcome to Autogefühl, your number 1 resource for in-depth reviews here on different cars". I like the new intro, you should use it every time! Anyway, it's a strange car the Cactus, as it fills 50% of an urban niche, with its rubber body parts, and trendy style, and 50% of a rural niche, with a raised ride height, and chunk diffusers. We all know that more city-dwellers will buy it than farmers, but what do you think it's suitable for? It might be the same in Germany, here in England, we have some cities, especially in the north, with very narrow streets, that you couldn't fit a Cactus through. For that, the VW Up! or Toyota Aygo is a good idea, so I don't really know where it fits. What do you think?
Anwar Afhim Hehe thank you, I'll think about using it in further reviews ;-) This car is a car for Paris, that's the idea. And I think it fits there very well. I have talked to a new owner of this car and she told me she bought the car as it looks different from others but wasnt too expensive and offered a huge trunk.
***** I see how it would make good sense in Paris. The price is an absolute bargain, and if you want people to look at you, it's a really good car for that. A very comprehensive review as usual. By the way, what's the music at the beginning?
does someone know what's the car that this journalist have please #Autogefühl ,it's just i think we have almost the same opinions and i would like to know , thank you and sorry for my bad english :p
The 1.2 puretech 82 is excellent on the motorway, I was shocked with its effortless ability to cruise at high speeds, and remain stable and smooth, plus it feels really agile......so am afraid Thomas was wrong when describing it as a good city car, but maybe not for motorways....
This is a really strange car. I readed in some magazin that this car has some good tech about eco mod and soem air suspension, does it really have maybe more or ??
Love the design of it and have been thinking about checking out a used one now. But what scares me above all is how you sit in it, I'm even taller than the test driver but despite that have mostly owned cars in that class or even smaller size, I mostly drive in town but sometimes it happens that I also drive 500 miles in a distance, so needs a car that is suitable for that as well. From what I can read, that diesel draws very little and that it is probably the biggest selling point with the car (strange that you didn't test if this was true?), for me this is important both from an economic point of view but also because you want to be kind to the environment . Two other things I would probably have had a bit of difficulty with is, as you point out, that there is no protection for the panoramic roof, but also that you cannot set the heating and cooling via buttons, this is also not possible with buttons from the steering wheel? So yes, I'm going to try one and really want to like it because I really love the look on the exterior, so nice that someone stands out a little, I could have easily had the yellow one, very practical if you have to find it in a large parking lot you can see it Immediately. However, I don't think it will end up with me buying a dull gray Mazda 3, I simply think that the minuses with the car, especially the driving position, will be a bit too big.
ok so I get that a lot of people like the design/shape of this car.... I GET IT!....BUT the back window system is completely not acceptable for 2016..... SERIOUSLY CITROËN? I know you automakers are trying to save money but at least include the old manual roll down window system....COME ON......!
Like the review :) But this car! is truly shocking Citroen try 2 sell you this on basis "Hey some 1 opens the door and hit you hey you are fine"Citroen style air bubbles/fence. French cars maker are detached from customer that i will not be surprised bankrot is coming.
the door sounds cheap....ha ha ha....what a blabber + petted cheeky brat ... ...you get a Diesel engine with 3 Liter / 100 km consumption + climatic inside. More is not necessary. I checked this car 400 km on German Autobahn and filled up 12 Liter Diesel = costs 12 € ... consumer-price: 12.500 € ( 1 year leasing-return, max. 18.000 km ) ...
LMSxReZzoRHD Hallo! Schau erstmal das Review komplett an, bevor du vorschnell urteilst. Zum weiteren: Unsere Website für ausführliche Hintergrundinformationen machen wir auf Deutsch.Die Videos laufen über UA-cam und erreichen ein internationales Publikum, sehr viele Zuschauer aus USA, Deutschland, Großbritannien, Japan, Russland und weitere aus über 100 Ländern der Welt. Darum sind die meisten unserer Videos auf Englisch.Die meisten deutschen Videozuschauer verstehen auch Englisch, aber fast alle anderen verstehen kein Deutsch. Insofern ist es nur logisch, die Videos auf Englisch anzubieten, was auch sehr gut ankommt.Wir würden uns freuen, wenn du auf Deutsch unsere Text-Berichterstattung verfolgst und auch hier unsere englischen Videos.Herzliche GrüßeThomas P.S.: Also nein, wir sind nicht total bescheuert (!!!!!!!!!)
LMSxReZzoRHD In der Videobeschreibung findest du übrigens einen Link zu einem deutschen Review von unserem anderen Thomas. Und bitte beim nächsten Mal etwas freundlicher!
***** Exactly. We have people from all over the world watching, and as most German video viewers unterstand English, its a way better service that everyone can understand us.
What an awful car! It's a big F for everything. Anyway French auto makers are well below the average in the car industry and this one sinks them to the bottom.
ChAbAr As I said, I think there are good and bad sides about the car - however I am glad that it is a very interesting one as this also is good for our discussion here :)
I like it! It's starting to grow on me. It's bold, different and it screams: "crazy"
By far the best channel for car reviews. Im really put off by UK reviewers with their negative attitude against everything originating from France. Plus this channel goes much more thoroughly through the cars, 2-3 times longer videos. Great channel.
SumoGambit Thank you so much, means a lot to us. Hope to see you at more of our videos!

Very good review! Amazing car! I have one like that, but with black pumps and 110 hp petrol! love it
Thank you for this second review of this car.
Thrifty Op Shopper thanks for watching!
Thank you for your complete and thorough review of this hate/love car. If I do become an owner of the cactus next week I will add my feedback. Until then, keep up the good work.
+Andrew Collins 👏
Same over here. Fell in love with it. Gonna be the first one :)
Andrew Collins thinking about buying this car. Did you end up buying it in the end? If so, how was/is it?
Really like the Honest review. I fully agree with your review, the good points and the bad points. I do think the car looks different. Please keep the reviews coiming Thomas I really enjoy them.
KInd Regards,
Saeed Anwar highly appreciated, Saeed!
very nice review good job!!! This car is pretty amazing regarding its money and i think citroen has constructed a really successful car
thanks !
Citron you need to change these elememts for your next update.
1. sliding rear window, equally cheap but let in much more air.
2. split back seats, make them fall flater as well
3. larger back opening so the boot floor can be accessed without intrusion.
4. a nob for the air con, touch screen is simply too complicated
5. a f1 like rev indicator on top of the speedometer, wont be expensive to implement.
6. a more rigid manual gear nob if possible but i wont expect much
+darknight92414 good feedback,thanks!
+Autogefühl The split back seats have been added this automn I think. I have seen them in October in a show room.
+darknight92414 "Citron" can't hear you but try Citroën and you might get through.
you do realise Citroen never check youtube? you'll need to write them a formal lesson, a little tip, if you misspell their name, they may not listen to you
What other car can i hold it up against pricewise vs quality?
Great review,you helpd me buy the car and go for the blue hdi 100hp diesel.
thank you.
+SNIPEROF you re welcome have fun with it ! :)
I really respect Cactus and Multipla drivers as they bring so much coolness on the roads.Great review though!
cijev2020 thanks!
Looking forward to getting it soon! Love it! :)
I want a car which is fully covered by those airbumps.
😂😂😂😂

Where is the review of the newer C4 C Cross?
I test drove one of thease the comfort was superb
I have bought one but I'm sure Rover had these soft pads on one of their cars once, called "street" or something.
Maybe if they specified seat size, so one could order a seat that fits there body frame? I think it's a very important issue that should be addressed with smaller vehicles
C4 CACTUS is very cute!
I love it and I want it now(6 speed AT model)
nice review! Thank u :-)

+Bruce Manning just on camera - different frame rates of lights and camera. Wont be seen by your eyes
Cool review but not sure you have driven the 110hp 3-cyl turbo engine which is a marvel on quite heavier cars such as the Peugeot 308 or the C4 I loaned the other day.

When closing the door the first time i had the same impression that you had...
It isn't just money saving, it's all about weight saving to improve mpg..

Citroen could use rimless steering wheel and move quite many functions much closer to driver by adding a screen on center of steer.

Well, finally a car stranger than the Nissan Juke...
But I have to say I liked it, but the brown outside parts should be in black as you said...

the car is in higher level quality than any of the wv group
Great review!! interesting car. Not a car for me.
+Richard Beckford thanks richard!
Typical german reviewer, i would never go for a yellow car for daily use, ha ha ha.
No matter what colour a cactus has, it looks extremely beautiful.

How bad is the automatic gearbox? Is it undrivable?
+David van der Zande It is really bad. Dont go for it
+David van der Zande i tryed the automatic one also, wasnt good ( i prefer it manual anyway in any car)
Is it available in the USA?
+Ristrella Conti Citroen does not deliver to the US atm, maybe some unofficial importers?
I were actualy looking at this car, i have a Skoda Fabia greenline but i am lookinh for a car with low fuel consumption, diesel and automatic gearbox.
+Jesper Knudsen seen our new fabia review?
The 1.2 puretech 82 is excellent on the motorway, I was shocked with its effortless ability to cruise at high speeds, and remain stable and smooth, plus it feels really agile......so am afraid Thomas was wrong when describing it as a good city car, but maybe not for motorways....
thanks for the feedback !
This is a really strange car. I readed in some magazin that this car has some good tech about eco mod and soem air suspension, does it really have maybe more or ??
Nineq 96 Hm didnt hear anything about air suspension yet, but it feels kinda like it because the suspension is rather soft :)
Love the design of it and have been thinking about checking out a used one now. But what scares me above all is how you sit in it, I'm even taller than the test driver but despite that have mostly owned cars in that class or even smaller size, I mostly drive in town but sometimes it happens that I also drive 500 miles in a distance, so needs a car that is suitable for that as well.

However, I don't think it will end up with me buying a dull gray Mazda 3, I simply think that the minuses with the car, especially the driving position, will be a bit too big.

the door sounds cheap....ha ha ha....what a blabber + petted cheeky brat

...you get a Diesel engine with 3 Liter / 100 km consumption + climatic inside.
More is not necessary.
I checked this car 400 km on German Autobahn and filled up 12 Liter Diesel =
costs 12 €
... consumer-price: 12.500 € ( 1 year leasing-return, max. 18.000 km )

korifeo
Well is cheap ... is much cheap plastic ... but still i will buy one
+TheSteelGamer i doubted it for a while to, got one and really happy with it
Seid ihr denn total bescheuert? Wieso macht ihr den Test auf Englisch wenn das ein deutscher Kanal ist!?!?!?!?
LMSxReZzoRHD Hallo! Schau erstmal das Review komplett an, bevor du vorschnell urteilst. Zum weiteren: Unsere Website für ausführliche Hintergrundinformationen machen wir auf Deutsch.Die Videos laufen über UA-cam und erreichen ein internationales Publikum, sehr viele Zuschauer aus USA, Deutschland, Großbritannien, Japan, Russland und weitere aus über 100 Ländern der Welt. Darum sind die meisten unserer Videos auf Englisch.Die meisten deutschen Videozuschauer verstehen auch Englisch, aber fast alle anderen verstehen kein Deutsch. Insofern ist es nur logisch, die Videos auf Englisch anzubieten, was auch sehr gut ankommt.Wir würden uns freuen, wenn du auf Deutsch unsere Text-Berichterstattung verfolgst und auch hier unsere englischen Videos.Herzliche GrüßeThomas P.S.: Also nein, wir sind nicht total bescheuert (!!!!!!!!!)
LMSxReZzoRHD In der Videobeschreibung findest du übrigens einen Link zu einem deutschen Review von unserem anderen Thomas. Und bitte beim nächsten Mal etwas freundlicher!
Because they want to reach out to a wider audience.
***** Exactly. We have people from all over the world watching, and as most German video viewers unterstand English, its a way better service that everyone can understand us.
***** Yeah. I think you do amazing with English reviews. There's nothing I'd change about it!
les fracais ne savent pas fabrique qq ch de convenable
russian akcent :D
AlexfromBerlin Niet.
BUt I get more horsepower on my bicycle, lol
What?? The 1.6 blue hdi is very very fast and powerfull
What an awful car! It's a big F for everything. Anyway French auto makers are well below the average in the car industry and this one sinks them to the bottom.
ChAbAr As I said, I think there are good and bad sides about the car - however I am glad that it is a very interesting one as this also is good for our discussion here :)
Thomas, I can feel your excitement about the car during the review (sarcasm). Good review BTW
worst citroen ever !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+χαρης τσουτουριδιδης nope it isnt
ugliest citroen ever
No. Just no
I don't think so!
This car is so unique and pretty!
I have bought one but I'm sure Rover had these soft pads on one of their cars once, called "street" or something.
I remember the Rover Streetwise based on the 25.
What other car can i hold it up against pricewise vs quality?
+Jesper Knudsen what are u searching? Small suv?
