Citroen C4 electric lease deals

Leasing a Citroen e-C4 in the UK

One of the amazing facets about electric cars, and vans, is that so many different manufacturers are now launching amazing products, and this is providing them with an opportunity to re-invent the branding / image with our UK customers.

Forming part of the Stellantis group, the French brand – Citroen – are now moving away from a reputation for cheap and basic automobiles, into a manufacturer which can be considered as structurally integral as a Volkswagen or Volvo.

The introduction of the electrified C4 a “C-segment” crossover SUV, was a true testament to Citroen’s ambitions. From mid-2020, our e-car lease customers have been able to order a brand new purely electric SUV (which is the most competitive segments within the zero-emission market).

The e-C4 is not without specification choice for personal or business customers transitioning to a BEV, with the following options below:

• Sense – from £29,995 this car has air conditioning, smart pad support, 10” touchscreen with Bluetooth and Connect Play, 18” alloys, keyless entry and start, lane departure and lane keep assist and forward collision assist;
• Shine Plus – from £34,995 this adds the HiFi system, wireless smartphone charging, Connect Nav, the safety plus pack, 18” alloys, 5.5” backlit instrument cluster, leather steering wheel and HUD for the driver; and
• Shine Edition – from £31,995 this car has Connect Nav, Connect Box emergency assistance, side windows with chrome details, dark tinted rear windows, leather steering wheel, HUD for the driver and 18” alloys.

There’s a whole host of great additional options to add to your electric C4 with the 11 kW AC upgrade for £300 and the safety plus pack (video and radar assistant) for £1300. So, as Citroen suggest on their website, “you’re gonna love the electric life” with the e-C4.

But does the 100% electric Citroen C4 deliver on the battery?  With any EV, much of what you pay for is the battery technology and capability. While we all want comfort, distinctive design and ease of drive, it’s utterly key that the EV is actually suitable for your lifestyle. The car’s usable battery of 45 kWh delivers 100 kW (or 134hp) for 0 - 62 times of 9.7 seconds and 93mph top speeds.

In terms of charging times, the C4 will take just over 7 hours from 0 – 100% on the 7.4 kW AC max and 25 minutes for 10 - 80% on the 101 kW DC max. Upgrade to the 11 kW AC max for £300 and this shortens the charging times to just 5 hours. Combined cold weather ranges on the e-C4 are 140 miles on a full charge and a much more reasonable 190 miles in warmer weather.

But the electrified version of the C4 will face stiff competition from a number of great alternative brands – the Skoda Enyaq, VW Id.5 and Volvo C40 are all equally robust machines to consider as your next new car.
