In terms of styling, the Citroen C4 and the e-C4 are quite similar and employ a coupe SUV kind of a design with a sloping roofline at the rear. The front end is typically sharp, with a slim grille, angular headlamps and the distinct double line DRLs. The hatchbacks also get differently coloured bumpers and cladding at the sides for that sense of ruggedness. The rear is stylishly done too, with a muscular boot and good-looking tail lamps. The design language is completely new and we believe this new design sense could make its way to all new small cars from Citroen, particularly those which have a chance of being launched in India.
