The Citroën C6 reinforces one of Citroën's key
values: innovation.
The
innovative driving position incorporates an easy-to-read
driver's
instrument panel, a large central screen and a head-up
display. This
display unit projects essential information – on speed
and navigation
for example – onto the windscreen, thus contributing to
active safety.
A first in the Citroën range, the C6 is equipped with an
electric
parking brake. This new feature is offered alongside
numerous
intelligent driving aids pioneered by Citroën and
already present on
the C4 and C5, such as the lane departure warning
system, front and
rear parking assistance, Xenon directional headlamps,
cruise control
and a speed limiter.
Top-of-the-range positioning of the Citroën C6 is
reflected by its
engine line-up: two V6 engines, one diesel and one
petrol, placing the
emphasis on driving pleasure and refinement. A new HDi
2.7 litre engine
develops 208 bhp DIN (150 kW) and is equipped with a
particulate
filter, while the 3-litre petrol engine develops 215 bhp
DIN (155 kW).
Both engines are mated to 6-speed automatic gearboxes.
The running gear uses multi-link suspension at front and
rear, while
the suspension system features electronically controlled
springing and
damping. As a result, the C6 sets new standards in
comfort,
road-holding and driving pleasure.
Thanks to its exceptional driving qualities and its
exclusive approach
to the art of life on-board, the C6 is perfectly placed
to continue in
the footsteps of other great Citroëns.

Each
feature of the cabin contributes to the overall comfort:
multi-adjustable seats, soundproofing, thermal comfort
and a specially
designed driving position.
The original design of the driving
position and ergonomic dashboard allows drivers to keep
their eyes on
the road at all times. The laminated side windows of the
C6 filter out
external noise, helping to create a relaxed atmosphere
on-board whilst
also enhancing driver concentration.
Occupants enjoy generous amounts of space in the
user-friendly
interior. Passengers in the back can adjust the
electrically-controlled
sliding rear seats to obtain the ideal relaxed seating
position.
The stowage compartments in the doors are inspired by
the latest trends
in home furniture design, thus reinforcing the concept
of the car as a
'lounge on wheels'.
Citroën is continuously working to improve passenger
well-being, and
the air-conditioning on the C6 includes a soft diffusion
system,
designed to create a uniform blanket of air around the
passengers, and
to enhance thermal comfort.
The C6 also sets out to be a class leader in safety, in
terms of both vehicle control and passenger protection.
High-level active and passive safety are provided by a
range of
features, including ESP, a stiff body structure, a knee
airbag and
active headrests.
Classic and yet thoroughly original, the Citroën C6 sets
itself apart
from the models that currently set the standard in the
sector, while
meeting all the requirements of an executive car:
elegance, refinement
and presence.
On top of all this, the C6 adds Citroën’s own unique
stamp, combining
strong emotional appeal with the application of
cutting-edge
technology. Once more, Citroën is showing itself to be a
front runner
in design, safety and comfort.
