Citroen C3 Picasso MPV 2013 review - CarBuyer

[@jakehafter-smith9609]

we have one of these cars, while I completely agree about the lack of cubbies in the front and the TINY glovebox, she forgot to mention that you have underfloor cubbies behind the front seats that we often use. It is also a great car for carrying people in the back considering its size and its pointless complaining about legroom if you've pushed the seats forwards, the whole point is that you can put them forward if you don't need the legroom but need the bootspace.

I drive a 1.6 vti and i am very happy with it. 12 years and it drives very good

[@morgan02010]

I've owned a c3 picasso for 7 months and I agree with most of the points she raises; yes it's no sports car and the suspension is soft but so what, a car like this is better for it. I'm 6'3 and have no trouble fitting in it, the 110 diesel engine is a gem and easily achieves 54 mpg overall. Never found cross wind a problem. I needed 1 car that can do it all and this is it; fold the seats down to make it a van, large boot for the dog to get in, all, in the wheelbase of a super mini.

I sometimes wonder why I watch these reviews of cars that I will never buy or probably ever see being in the States, and yet, they are just so informative and honestly entertaining. Keep it up.

[@gibb253]

Had the 1.6 petrol, now the 115hp diesel 6 speed. Both excellent. We regularly drive from Italy to Britain and it's a great long distance cruiser.

[@johngray9434]

Agree brilliant cat. My only gripe is the limited leg room in the front where anyone 6 feet or taller will struggle even with the seats pulled as far back as they go. But at 70mpg it’s a compromise worth having!

[@GrotrianSeiler]

Citroen should be commended for making such a unique-looking car in this segment. Interesting.

[@BidefordCarnival]

Spot-on review; every positive and negative point is completely accurate.
And no pretentious delivery, no false bonhomie, no over-practised witticisms - just professional, personable & very watchable.
Very very very watchable... cough.

[@morgan02010]

Just to point out some negatives: glove box space is taken up by fuse box (not the case on left hand drive models), fairly tight for your left foot by the clutch, no storage between the front seats. But it has excellent visibility, good economy, I find it has no problem keeping up with traffic on the motorway (perhaps the lower powered models struggle more?). By the way, I'm in my mid 40's so not a pensioner just yet!

[@vitorgarrido3014]

I bought a Picasso in 2010 ... c3 1.6 HDI 92 hp Airdramon Exclusive ... cost € 21,200 ... I still have today, it was the best decision I made... the car is suberbo, but consumption a little high in the city (Oporto-Portugal) 6.5l/100km...A construction of the car, the handling and comfort are gorgeous. It is the ideal car for young couples and two sons. No doubt of it, if you think an MPV, Citroen is this the best option ... a smart choice.

[@wernerkosters6859]

Rebecca is sooo sweet. And i love this wonderful original oxford english😊
And it a real interesting car

[@Nombredeusuario1030]

I kinda like this car. It looks funky and it's cheaper than its rivals.

[@tb6539]

Having owned 3 xara picassos previously which were brilliant and never missed a beat, i wanted to downsize but try and still keep some of the practicality so i opted for the c3 picasso and it is like a tardis in the xara i could just get my fishing barrow in, However in the c3 i wheel it sraight in with at least just over half a foot spare ?? It never ceases to amaze me how much this car swallows!! On the outside looks quite diddy and narrow and yet when inside seems rather cavenous.Its very comfortable to drive i have the 1.6 hdi diesal 90 bhp and it pulls like a steam train its very quick and i push mine quite a bit on road through bends i think it holds the road very well for the type of vehicle it is, also if you know how to drive its not much difference to a car.Overall its quite fast, its very good on fuel, comfortable and very reliable this is my second c3 picasso to give a fare review on a car you need to have owned one for a while. In reviews they have to give pros and cons etc all cars have these, and its down to budget, personal choice, and needs of the individual.Ive owned all types of cars in my life, i think citreon have a very good range of models some colorful and quirky which i like far better than the plain dull boring offerings from ford like the mondeo.The citreon DS4 in black is just gorgeous lol perhaps ill have one of those next ???

[@tb6539]

stay away from the picasso auto as its not a normal automatic it lurches as it changes and ive read quite some horror stories ive now changed to a peugot 3008 2.0 hdi 6 speed normal automatic its so comfortable and smoothe to drive totally different class than a c3 but you can only get the normal automatic on the 2.0 diesalnamic it also has stability control and dynamic ride control so you dont get any body roll through corners you can put the 3008 into bends at real speed and it just goes round as though on rolls i have the 163 BHP engine top speed 130 mph so doesnt hang around very smoothe and quiet best car ive ever driven for comfort and road holding hope this helps ???

[@johnholmes9837]

I managed to fit a complete bathroom suite , bath, panels, sink, pedestal & toilet inside the Xsara Picasso in one go, wouldnt even try for half of that in the C3 pic

[@Wollaston123]

We have had ours 10 years. Great car. Loads of room.

[@svaffe]

Which engine variant and has it been reliable?

[@drawwithdan5821]

I think she was a bit mean about the space in the car. You can't get another car of this size with more passenger space. I'm 6ft 2 and I can sit behind myself with LOADS of head and legroom, it's huge in there considering it's not actually a particularly big car at all. Grown quite fond of our family bus...its useful and very practical.

[@JD_gonboz]

I love Citroen with my heart!

[@derbigpr500]

Its a Citroen. They all have a bunch of character, style and uniqueness, more than virtually any other brand regardless of price. Plus, they're very technologically advanced and lately really hitting the premium segment hard with their quality, especially the DS4 and DS5 models, which have interiors that feel like they belong in some Aston Martin or Bentley, not a small hatchback.

[@user-kl3kn4do8o]

Купил такую машинку, очень довольны. Для семьи самое оно.

[@morgan02010]

SHOCK!!! The aluminium trims are actually REAL METAL!! Stick that where the sun don't shine.

[@Kayshots]

Luxury edition! Leather seats.

[@jbmop]

Carbuyer has great insightful videos. I really do enjoyed their detailed car presentations. I sometimes fantasize that Rebecca and I are exploring the compartments of various vehicles alone, and I ask her to find my banana.

[@mauriceghareb5983]

wtf

[@larax015]

Looks beautiful. I really like it.
And the car looks good as well.

[@BestCarSound]

The last, negative point is non-sense, I believe. It wouldn't be surprise to get less leg- for more boot space and other way around. But OK, great car & great review :)

[@ElCorunio]

It is very interesting to know the C3 Picasso made in Brazil, that has an old C3/Peugeot 206 expanded plattform, a different dashboard and a few more differences with a higher quality levels. It is configured as something that we could call DS3 Picasso. Beside its competitors is enormous inside and so good lookin'. It has a SUV look-like brother called C3 Aircross, not so nice, but very apreciated in this part of the world

[@concordeaviation3051]

Drove this when visiting France, really fast, comfortable, but since I live in the US it feels weird looking at it for the first time

[@SirBioSnake]

The people who buy them are most of the time in their 60s and 70s because they are easy to get in and out of, so although it is quite an interesting little car it isn't viewed as cool. Here in Scotland however these are pretty rare cars.

[@kenmeade9924]

I just bought a second hand one, from scotland ;)

[@Stere0guy]

The only reason I watched this video is because of Rebecca. You are very firmly in the positive. :)

[@morgan02010]

Yes, my c3 has the nickname "Fugly" but it's still one of the most versatile small cars around. I guess most of you just don't 'get' Citroen, most are badge snobs or completely closed minded to anything off the wall and quirky.

[@kirbyswarp]

This car has WAY more character than the sea of Corollas, Camries and priuses here in California.

[@keetar]

BEAUTYFUL!

[@keetar]

YES~ C3P the BEST!

[@yelp1000]

Do these sell well in Europe? ... it seems like a quirky/cool ride.

[@apalsenberg]

A great smallpeople carrier!

[@maxandsyd14]

my 2nd favorite citreon. my fav is the ds3.

[@MrOpirus]

I liked this car so much but it didn't make any sales in my country 😔

[@CF21LDB]

I've Just Ordered One In The Exact Same Colour Pearl White and 17 inch wheels, Mine Is The 1.6i VTi Exclusive EGS6

[@MrAndreCoutinho]

South America had a slightly different version, most notably the rear door with off-center license plate spot and more conservative bumpers. The dash is completely different and it looks worse than this, there’s no digital dashboard or infotainment display.
There was as well an AirCross version, with a faux off-road-esque styling and a hanging spare tire on the rear door
Overall is a decent vehicle, I like the style, it resembles those cute Japanese kei vans.

[@wparo]

I like this review from Reb & Ecca.

[@eliasexplog6263]

Ótimo vídeo, bastante objetivo. Parabéns!

[@SumoGambit]

So wonderful this woman. I can watch her driving 24/7.
Non the less, didnt get her point about leg room in back, sems to be the biggest amount of leg room I have ever seen, you could fit 15 africans in there.(no racism intented).
Even after she moved the seat forward there was plenty of space.

[@marcel911]

+SumoGambit She is a bit of a cutie isn't she. A racing driver too I read. She ticks all the boxes.

[@dotevans2389]

I want that car

[@Charlzey1998]

One of the negative things about the boot is sometimes when you open it everything comes falling out

[@dennislane100]

You should drop the floor down to the low setting.Effectively stops this issue,as it creates a lip at the rear of the boot space.Added bonus,it also gives you another 3 to 4 inches of height in the area!

[@rubini46]

The great thing about the C3 Picasso is that there's so much room for improvement, I Love mine thus far. It's A Classic practical design. 😀

[@einarolavberg99]

a very good car

[@jjrdias]

Indeed. Usually i see it happen over that Mat guy.

[@wernerkosters6859]

Soo cute ❤

[@lffit]

Saw a report recently from a French auto magazine what you can expect problem wise from its big brother, the C4 Picasso, it was horrendous.

[@mandeepv7541]

all 62 plate cars onwards will have DRLs by law apparently

[@69turrun]

Muy bonito el C3 Picasso, también tengo que decir q la chica esta me vende hasta un 127 si quiere, menudos ojazos!

Why can't we have Citroens in the US like we used to? The new ones seem much better and this looks like a great competitor to the Kia Soul.

[@janrdoh]

I don't get why some car makers think it's a good idea to put the speedo and rev counter etc in the middle of the dash dirtectly out of your line of sight.Citroen,Mini,Toyota in that Etios thing and previous gen Yaris.

[@dennislane100]

Speedo read-out is in digital numerals,about 50mm high!If you can't see that,even slightly offset,then you need an eye test!Because it's off toward centre of the dash,it gives the driver excellent forward vision,and,let's face it,that's more important than watching your bloody instrument panel!

[@newmabreu96]

You should have mentioned the panoramic roof :( and maybe the camera man on the midle of the citroen showing the panoramic front stuning view, :(

[@JD_gonboz]

citroen c4 picasso please

[@Charlzey1998]

If you dont hav the satnav theres a storage compartment

[@elukok]

Should have mentioned the panoramic roof...

[@volt8684]

Biased review as usual. French innovation for spacious family transport not racing round bends in. Its a mini mov not a gti.functio over form something that the French are leaders in back as farcas 2cv and berlingos. Copied mpv and mini mpv buy most manufacturers. Renault espace was years ahead. Give credit where its due as a mum with kids this is fab vehicle

[@1958plymouth440V8]

Looks great, pity it doesn't drive so well...

[@flossie4536]

I have another version of this car, (it doesn't have the compartment on the middle chair on the back, and it doesn't have the satnav) but it is one of the best cars I've ever had.

[@calaiscruiser]

I'll admit I haven't watched any reviews that the guy has done..

[@brightivan]

Long test drive before deciding

[@stianjarnass]

how is it to drive With the speedometer in the middle? And is there great Space for a Bicycle in the back? Looks good though

[@jeffreyprice773]

Is there a spare wheel?

Possible you will get either a space saver or a can of foam

No its a near the top of range blu diesel, but I came down from a superb c4 Picasso which unfortunately destroyed its gearbox

It has a distinctive & interesting look, yes...But its the hideous kind of distinctive look. This is mostly who families. What kid would get in a car that looks like something from Monsters Inc ?
