Citroen C4 You: Still available, new cars under 20,000 euros

A good foundation. You, dear readers, demand that we use cheap cars in the tests. More entry-level types. It is not easy to convince the press offices of car manufacturers to give us an accountant’s version – they want to shine with their products. But more and more manufacturers are now realizing that in times of inflation and cost pressure, an entry-level version with a lower price is more attractive than a fully equipped version.

Citroën understood that and delivered C4 in the basic You version for less than 20,000 euros. And then you quickly realize how spoiled we (car testers) are: I searched for the start button for a minute. But there is none! Ignition is classic and key. Turn, remove and move the gear by hand.

Fabric seat adjustment is also a guide. But no matter what sitting position I choose, the shape of the seats always puts a little pressure on the back of my head. However, the problem cannot be blamed on the low price, because my colleagues and I just recently BMW 7 Series desperately looking for a place to stay.

Overall, the C4 cuts good stats. And it seems to be coming Citroën among customers, which is what the statistics of French importers suggest. According to the Federal Motor Transport Authority, the brand recorded a 65.3 percent increase in new vehicle registrations in the first quarter of the year compared to the same period last year.

According to its own information, this increase places Citroën as one of the fastest growing car brands in Germany. March in particular stands out, where Citroën managed to increase new registrations by 91.8 percent compared to the same month last year and gain a passenger car market share of 2.9 percent – the best value in 15 years.

And Citroën continues to focus on price-performance ratio for growth. The announcement of the small electric car ë-C3, which will come to the market in the summer initially for 23,300 euros and then even in the basic version for less than 20,000 euros, caused a stir.

A pricing strategy can work, as can brand checking Dacia shows that for a long time it remains below the limit of 25,000 euros, even for an electric car. The result: Dacia arrives and is the overall price/performance winner in our “Best Business” survey.
