British made Citro�n C4 Cactus named 'New Car of the Year'

Citro�n's C4 Cactus has been named 'New Car of the Year' at this year's Motor Trader Awards, which took place at the Grosvenor House Hotel in London yesterday evening.

A panel of leading automotive journalists made up the judging panel at the awards. Of the winning car they said: "Citro�n's C4 Cactus has provided dealers with a car they can make a noise about. With its delivery of fun, functionality and low running costs it is attracting new buyers to the brand making it a worthy winner of Motor Trader's Car of the Year award."

The C4 Cactus was created by British designer Mark Lloyd and launched in Amsterdam in September 2014. The multi-award winning model fought of stiff competition from across the automotive industry, which included the Audi TT and Volkswagen Passat.

Chris Cheetham, the UK marketing director for Citro�n commented; "By focusing on intelligent technologies and innovative design, we've been able to create a car that not only meets our customers' expectations, but also exceeds them. The C4 Cactus represents the future design direction of Citro�n, so it's an extremely exciting time for our dealer network and everyone working for the brand."

For Citro�n 2014 was a very successful year. Alongside launching the Cactus, they also sold almost 1.2 million vehicles. The brand has also won eight Manufacturers' titles in the WRC and a new Manufacturers' FIA world championship title from the 2014 WTCC season.

The new Citro�n C4 Cactus boasts the very latest 'useful' technologies and buyers have a choice from an efficient range of Euro 6 compliant engines. The small family car is available from just £12,990 on the road.
