Citroen C4 Aircross 2014 Video Review

The Citroen C4 Aircross is the French brand’s first small SUV, and has leapfrogged any first-effort gremlins by using Mitsubishi’s popular ASX crossover for its basis. It’s by no means a copyright-cheating facsimile though, as the C4 Aircross shares all mechanicals, and much of its construction with the ASX, as part of an agreement with Mitsubishi.

Therefore, the C4 Aircross shares little more than badging and half its name with the Citroen C4 hatch range. The C4 Aircross is not alone in following this formula to create a semi-instant small SUV, with fellow PSA brand Peugeot’s 4008 sharing an equal relationship with the ASX.

This sort of model propagation is nothing new in the automotive world, and on closer inspection, the C4 Aircross is a particularly successful cross-breed.
