Citroen Xsara Picasso HDi
Citroens contribution to the MPV market takes the form of the Xsara Picassa, available with the superb 2.0 HDi turbo diesel engine for drivers wanting bags of torque, or the slight more fuel efficient 1.6 HDi which also proves sufficiently powerful for virtually every situation. Citroens ability to design affordable, well engineered cars is evident with the success of the Xsara Picasso. Solid long lasting engines and reliable mechanical components are backed up by a 12 year corrosion warranty.
Diesel Engine Options
The Citroen Xsara Picasso has a distinctly rounded body silhouette which provides interior space and back seat head room. The Citroens flexible boot is also spacious, with removable or folding rear seats to enable a wide range of seating and loading combinations. Passenger and driver seats in the Picasso HDi are less supportive than the VW Touran, which incidentally also performs marginally better when driven hard around tight corners.
