Citroën has announced the arrival of the 11Ohp C2 1.6HDi
VTS - an exciting new diesel hot hatch that, for less than GBP11,000,
offers an unbeatable combination of punchy performance, low emissions
and money-saving fuel economy of well over 60mpg.
Featuring the signature sporty exterior and interior
look that comes with wearing Citroën's renowned VTS badge, the
torque-laden C2 1.6HDi VTS is available for just GB10.995 including a
special introductory offer.
The sports styling emphasises the performance
qualifications of the new model, which is the first diesel supermini to
sport the VTS insignia. With its refined 11 Ohp 1.6HDi engine, and
5-speed manual gearbox, this new C2 boasts a 0-62mph time of 9.4
seconds and a top speed of 120mph. It also delivers 80% more torque
than its petrol stablemate, with 192 lb.ft available at just 2,00Orpm.
Importantly, the C2 1.6HDi VTS also has excellent green
credentials. Offering a frugal 64mpg on the combined cycle and with CO2
emissions of just 119g/km, the new VTS model presents an
environmentally conscious alternative in the hot hatch market. This
means that the model falls into one of the UK Government's lowest bands
for Vehicle Excise Duty - Band B.
Complementing its sporty image, environmental
credentials and fun-to-drive handling, the 1.6HDi VTS model has the
same impressive specification as the petrol version. Air conditioning,
ESP, four airbags, an alarm and ABS with EBD are all standard, while
smart 16" 'Cheetah' alloy wheels are also fitted.
