Citroen press release :
Citroën’s multi award-winning supermini MPV, C3 Picasso, will receive some smart new updates from 1^st
November. The biggest small car on the road is now available with a
new Euro 5 HDi 110 engine and 6-speed transmission, plus there is the
addition of a Connecting Box (USB and Bluetooth® connectivity) as
standard specification on VTR+ and Exclusive trim levels.  Citroën has
also introduced a tasty new limited edition to the innovative MPV’s
line-up – the C3 Picasso BLACKCHERRY.
Stylish and distinctive, the C3 Picasso BLACKCHERRY is based on the
VTR+ model and is powered by a refined and efficient 1.6HDi 90hp engine.
 With smart cherry red and glossy black exterior and interior
detailing, the model also benefits from a premium black metallic body
colour, roof bars and dynamic 17” cherry red diamond-tipped alloy
wheels. A generous level of standard equipment includes air
conditioning, cruise control with speed limiter, Connecting Box (USB
socket & Bluetooth® system), electrically adjustable door mirrors
and front electric windows.
With the introduction of Citroën’s new Euro 5 1.6HDi 110hp engine,
the C3 Picasso reaffirms its place as one of the most
environmentally-conscious MPVs on the road today.  A refined and
efficient powerplant, fuel economy is just under 59mpg over a combined
cycle with CO₂ emissions down 5g/km on the Euro 4 unit to just 125g/km.
The Citroën C3 Picasso range now benefits from a full Euro 5
compliant engine line-up and all HDi models qualify for free VED in the
first year.  The petrol 1.4 VTi 95hp VT and the 1.6HDi 90hp VT have been
re-homologated and now offer improved fuel efficiency and lower CO₂ emissions.  Combined cycle fuel economy increases from 42.8mpg to 44.1mpg and 60.1mpg to 61.4mpg respectively.  CO₂
emissions are down 4g/km on both models, resulting in reduced BIK tax
rates (down 2 bands). The VED also reduces for both models, from band G
to F and band D to C respectively.  
Helping to reduce fuel consumption and maintain low CO₂
emissions, all C3 Picasso models are now fitted withMichelin Energy™
Saver tyres.  These efficient tyres mean specifying larger 17” optional
alloy wheels on Exclusive models will no longer have an impact on CO₂ output.  
Keeping occupants connected and entertained, Citroën’s Connecting Box
will be fitted as standard from the VTR+ trim level.  The smart system
offers a USB socket for connecting MP3 players to the audio system and a
Bluetooth® connection for hands-free calls and allowing users to stream
music wirelessly from Bluetooth® enabled devices.
