Citroen C4 1.6 VTi 120 FWD: what you need to know

Well-argued answers to the most asked questions about this model, based on Caralogy data and simulations.

Where does the C4 1.6 VTi 120 FWD rank in its segment?

Among the 12 compacts 2013–2017, the C4 1.6 VTi 120 FWD ranks 5th of 10 in Combined consumption (6.0 L/100, behind the Kia Ceed 1.6 CRDi 136 FWD), 10th of 12 in 0–100 km/h (10.5 s, behind the Volkswagen Golf 7 R).

How much does the C4 1.6 VTi 120 FWD cost to run?

Running costs depend on your profile (mileage, charging type, city/highway mix). Use the Caralogy consumption simulator for a personalised estimate.

Why not a Kia Ceed 1.6 CRDi 136 FWD instead?

The Kia Ceed 1.6 CRDi 136 FWD leads in Combined consumption (4.5 L/100 vs 6.0 L/100). The choice depends on your priorities: check the C4 1.6 VTi 120 FWD vs Kia Ceed 1.6 CRDi 136 FWD duel for a detailed comparison.

How does Caralogy calculate its figures?

Caralogy does not reproduce manufacturer figures: we recalculate every number through physics simulation, starting from SCx, mass and the power curve. This is why our figures at 130 km/h differ from WLTP. Full methodology on the dedicated page.
