Welcome

Presentation

The Citroën C6 has arrived. The latest addition to a historic line of great Citroëns, with a stunning look in keeping with the Marque's reputation for style, the C6 takes the grand tourer concept and incorporates the latest cutting-edge technology.

The C6 adds the crowning touch to a wider and more complete Citroën range, extending from the C1 to the C8. The presence, styling and executive features of the C6 clearly identify it as an executive model. It is a car inspired by great Citroëns of the past – the DS, CX and SM – whose design and innovative technologies have helped the Marque to establish a strong heritage in large cars.

The C6 takes the essential cues of executive saloons – elegance, sophistication and on-the-road presence – and combines them with the Marque's own key values. Derived from classic Citroëns and continuously updated, these values are expressed through avant-garde technology, based on styling and the pursuit of comfort, and through engines that place the emphasis on driveability rather than sheer power.

Through its fluid and dynamic styling, the C6 is a highly distinctive car. Depending on the angle from which it is viewed, its unique styling brings to mind an elegant coupé or an executive limousine.

The exceptional on-board comfort takes the driver and passengers into a world of opulence. The roomy, spacious passenger compartment uses premium materials.

Style

Symbolising Citroën's expertise, the C6 joins the select circle of French executive saloons. It has the emotional appeal to attract true connoisseurs of exceptional cars.

The C6 resembles a powerful coupé, through its design lines and general approach, and a prestige saloon, through its interior space and generous functions.

The C6 is a distinctive vehicle of majestic allure, with a front end embodying power and prestige, a flowing, aerodynamic profile, and an original rear end conveying an impression of confidence and stability.

From the front, the C6 conveys an impression of power with its low-slung stance and large bumper featuring an integrated air intake between the two round fog lamps and daytime running lights.

The attractive, imposing profile of the C6 is showcased by its generous dimensions: 1.86 m wide, 1.46 m high and 4.91 m long, with a 2.90 m wheelbase.

The C6 features a uniquely styled rear end that picks up the Marque's style cues.

Like all large Citroën cars, the C6 is fitted with a concave (reverse curve) rear window. Looking beyond its originality, the concave shape highlights the generous size of the boot and provides excellent visibility.

Comfort et technology

Thanks to its exceptional driving qualities and its exclusive approach to the art of life on-board, the C6 is perfectly placed to follow 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.

Citroën is continuously working to improve passenger well-being. 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.


The powertrain generally takes up considerable space in the engine compartment, leaving little room between the engine and the bonnet.

To remedy this, the C6 comes with an “active” bonnet system as standard that automatically raises the bonnet in the event of pedestrian impact. Thanks to an impact sensor and pyrotechnic mechanism, the bonnet rises 65 mm in 40 milliseconds. A second mechanism maintains the bonnet in its raised position despite the impact and thus absorbs the deformation energy.
