Prize-winning Cactus is not a prickly customer at all
THE Citroen C4 Cactus hasbeen awarded the top accoladeat the Carbuyer.co.uk BestCars of the Year awards.
The Cactus drove away withthe top prize after winningpraise from road testers andbeing revealed as the most fre-quently searched for motor onthe buyer-focused website.
In a successful awards hand-out for Citroen, the Cactusalso won its category (BestEconomical Car), while theGrand C4 Picasso won in theBest Seven-Seater field.
Stuart Milne, editor of Car-buyer.co.uk, said: “The quirkyCitroen C4 Cactus, with itsAirbump panels, has been setup with comfort in mind andit’sextremely economical witha return of more than 60mpgfor the petrol engine.”
Linda Jackson, Citroen’sCEO, said“The Citroen C4Cac-tus has already won more than
25 major awards and these lat-est accolades from Carbuyerare particularly pleasing – fortwo reasons.
“Firstly, it’s fantastic to winthe overall car of the yearprize as well as taking the winin the Best Economical Carcategory. Secondly, Carbuyeroffersadvice to customerswhoare actively in the process of looking for a new car, so theseawards are very important fora new entrant to the marketlike the C4 Cactus.”
