The Citroën Cactus M combines Grip Control with
tall and narrow tyres, increasing agility and
enabling it to cope with
the toughest roads and gradients. Grip Control
adapts to all situations
to optimise traction in any circumstances. Using
a dashboard selector
to the left of the steering wheel, the driver
can choose between four
modes, normal, all-terrain, snow or sand.
The Cactus M concept was designed as an
open-air
vehicle, but is able to adapt to any type of
weather with its
innovative roof. Located in the double-floor
boot, this roof is
installed by hand and stretches around the
vehicle using an innovative
inflation system.Air inflates three tubes that
hold the top in the
correct position. Inflation is activated by a
compressor at the rear of
the vehicle.
With its modular interior and this innovative
roof
system, the Citroën Cactus M promotes
spontaneity and freedom. For
example, the Cactus M can be turned into a
bivouac for two people,
extending the outdoor experience. By means of an
ingenious tilting
mechanism, the rear seat can become an extension
of the boot, create a
‘couchette’. Users can either sleep in the open
or under cover, using
the inflation function to turn the roof into a
freestanding tent. This
tent folds out at the rear of the vehicle,
enabling two people
measuring 1.80m in height to stand
upright. No more limits stand
in the way of the quest for discovery.
For the roof and the tent, Citroën has worked
with
two companies who are well known in the sector.
For the structure and
safety of the tent, the brand called upon ATIC,
experts in inflatable
structures for extreme conditions. To make the
fabric, they worked with
Jonathan & Fletcher, who are experts in
technical textiles for
extreme sports.
Looking beyond its innovations, the Citroën
Cactus
M is also enjoyable to drive every day as it has
all the driving
comfort and technologies present on the
production C4 Cactus. One year
on from the launch of the production car, this
concept illustrates the
potential of the C4 Cactus as the basis for new
models, as well as the
extraordinary possibilities for deploying
Citroën’s brand positioning
through different body styles.
