    Very good tips for low consumption! Some of them are really not spoiling fun in driving. Car is also great looking, especially in red and very frugal. Less than four ltrs is really incredible for me.

    Enjoyable road trip ! A very spunky little car and I can picture myself doing the highlands of Scotland and maybe NC500 tour.

      ***** Not sure how to converse with you on new topics. www.leftlanenews.com/facelifted-2016-volkswagen-passat-coming-this-fall-89298.html
      It appears VW America is updating out Passat. I agree with all of the updates except for the engine choices. At this time, the American Passat has three engines (1.8 turbo, 2.0 diesel, 3.6 V6). I understand VW is trying to meet new CAFE standards by putting the new 1.4 turbo in place of the 1.8 turbo. But, this is a HUGE car and it needs more displacement. And Thomas, I agree with your statements that a smaller engine will lead to worse fuel economy in real world testing.

    I would be interested in the coefficient of Drag this vehicle has ,some modern vehicles have around 0.24 or better,,would be interesting to see how the aero bumps really work.
    Thanks

      @autogefuehl  9 років тому

      TechExplorer Hey Joe, thanks! We more talk about the air bumps in our review videos of that car! It seems cw value is 0.32 here, not too good, even more interesting that the low consumption could be scored

    respect Thomas! Who was the lady in Your car? I made many yeares ago a "Spritsparkurs" with ADAC and after I reduced my fuel consumption around 20%. Even with my newest car, the Qashqai 1.2 Xtonic, I am close to NEFC. One important thing to reduce fuel is to check every time the tire pressure .

    Ciao Thomas! Fun video.
    I'd rather die I think than have to drive that way every day 😫
    It looked like you were standing still on the motorway. Reminds me when my run flat tire caused me to drive 80kph max one time...
    The Citroen is growing on me. I once owned a pair of disco shoes that purple colour wayyyy back.
    Say hello to your lovely co-pilot.
    Btw nice hair cut!

    strange - those wheels are for mid-spec feel on UK cars. flair has 17" - look better but lower-profile tyres hurt the ride a little. by the way - thanks for doing this in English - appreciated!

  • @kossak007
    @kossak007 9 років тому +1

    Well actually the fuel consumption shouldn't really surprise that much due to the low weight of the car. If I'm not mistaken the Cactus is based on the C3's platform which is basically a small car.
    Nice video as always. Keep it up!

    Question:::::::: as motoring experts, would you recommend the 1.2 puretech for motorway driving ? On a daily basis, would it harm the engine over time? As it only a 12?

    • @autogefuehl
      @autogefuehl  8 років тому

      maybe the reason you didnt get an answer here because we only answer when we are 100 % sure and refrain from speculations. The dense information you will find in the reviews, best for you is to check out more of our Citroen C4 Cactus reviews:

    Overall I liked the vehicle, could have some improvements for everyday comfort ,such as shade screen for panoramic roof. The contrast colors i agree dark on dark looks good ,but i did like the red on Black .I was was impressed with fuel consumption over all.To me the interior reminded me of the BMW i3 with MMI setup, clean modern design. Roof rails not sure if needed might help also with fuel consumption at speed.
    Enjoyed the details and overall impression .
    Thanks

    • @autogefuehl

      TechExplorer yeap that sunshade has to be in there. I also thought about the roof rails, good point. I think they mainly serve a design purpose!

    Hello Autogefühl, am afraid i have a stupid question. Why do you recommend the Diesel Engine over the Petrol Engine? Considering that the top Petrol engine has 10 more horsepowers on the cactus. Thank you

    • @autogefuehl
      @autogefuehl  9 років тому

      +crx CK usually I prefer the petrol engines. But here the petrol one is too weak. If petrol and diesel have same hp, the Diesel always has more torque

    Thanks Thomas for the consumption review. It's not a bad car at all, hopefully the few birth defects will be fixed by citroën. (quality of fixtures, assembly, the unfractionnable back seats). plastics will remain cheap looking I'm afraid.

      Hallo!
      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, das ist der kleinste gemeinsame Nenner.
      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 Grüße
      Thomas
