You missed the trick Mat, you can store the boot cover when the three rows of seats are up in the recess at either side of the car behind the seats fits great, take another look! the seats are easy to fold out, you do not need to take the covers all the way off as you did, just fold them back grab both straps and pull the seats come up together and fit the space perfectly. If you are going to review a car do it properly.
I’ve had my Citroen c4 picasso 5 door diesel flair 120 bhp from 3000 miles it’s been a great car averaging 47 mpg mainly local useage, it’s vast inside with loads of extras as standard, I’ve had the car maintained by my local service Citroen agent, it hasn’t missed a beat,even moved two single beds in it, so if your looking for a roomy economical family car this must be on your list
Got one recently as a work/utility car (as opposed to my weekend toys) for just € 14.000, 4 years / 58.000km. 2.0 bluehdi exclusive automatic, pumped up the engine to 190+hp with a tune... it's quite the good car for the money, lot of space to load stuff and people and it's not a slouch either.
Apart from having a possible seven seats - it's not as practical as the Xsara Picasso, which was beautifully simple and uncluttered, with more open space, especially the oh, so useful, lack of centre console enabling access to the rear without getting out of the car. I spent many hours driving,working and sleeping in my 2.0hdi. With the rear centre seat removed and an infill used, it provided a perfectly flat bed with extra length between the front seats. PLUS - it was free of so many unnecessary electronic gimmicks so prone to go wrong. Other people may have made fun of them - but I've never met anyone who owned one who didn't love it! Sorry, I know the comments should really apply to the C4!
I went to look at a 2017 one today as I am in the market for an MPV for micro camping/every day family car. I was absolutely impressed with the car and can I just say, putting the seats into any of its multi configuration was so easy, not complicated or a faff. I would love to know or hear a bit more about the engines and reliability. Thank you for doing this review.
No bigger, but the boot cover does stow being the 3rd row seats. You do one ever have to 'mount' it before raising the 3rd row seats and does make what is left of the boot even smaller. Sometimes it helps to read the owners manual :)
We have the Spanish top of the range one and it is very good, all the bells and whistles, auto 6 speed tiptronics etc, lovely car, leather seats, self parking, you name it has it, bought a 1 year old demo and saved 9k... very happy with it. goes like a rocket considering its diesel but its the 150 version, also has 360 cameras...
I drive this car with 131-PS SHINE with petrol engine since August 2017. After my Mazda 6 is this the best car that I ever had. I`m happy und proud, that I have done this lucky find.
@@t_bbb2546 Yes, ja. The citroen have THREE seats in the background for the kids. Not 2 1/2 or other. THREE full-fledged seats! And this for the price in Germany for a french car. When you get an german van, for example VW Touran, you must pay 5.000,-- € or more for the same configuration. It`s a great deal. And we have buy in Nov. 2019 one`s more french car : Renault GS IV with 159 PS engine. Got luck for buying a car for all the people, that read my writing.
Good review. But you should say that the "refresh" model is now available with a significantly improved technologie package (especially the navigation system). And you have a place to store the luggage cover. See owner manual for that.
The C4 is a great car. Practical, comfortable,spacious and economical not a boring mpv. Look at other reviews of the car auto express has a nice one. There is now a facelift version
I've got a c4 picasso... I hate to love it, especially seeing as i traded an m135i for it. Super practical (i have aquired twins and a toddler). Touch screen is a pain in the ass - give me buttons for air con any day!
carwow I won't. It's design reminds me of a Citroen concept for a large people carrier that came out of the 90's, yet it's still so awesome and very much timeless. The good thing about it is that it's a family car yet still fun and with a cool style!
I own both a Touran and a Grand Picasso. Honestly the Picasso is much better in space, comfort, cost, equipment and looks. My next one is a Grand Picasso again (in spite of the now mandatory CD player).
touran is only a golf ,dull and not something u go wow with.citroen is different ,own a third citroen now and have no complaint,grand picasso is great car in every way
These seat conversions are brilliant, why are people complaining about them? Normally you would need to remove them and carry them to the garage, if you even manage to get them out…
Owner Review: 1.6d. Pros: Great fuel economy. Road tax is negligible, and free on some models. Beautiful looking- stands out from the crowd. Great seating space in the back and in the front, but rearmost seats are really only suitable for children. Fantastic driving position, and a smooth ride. Handles corners well. Great boot space. Arm rests in the front. Visibility is really good. Cons: The user interface- buttons for air con and music, are not user friendly. Very fiddly. Your eyes are taken off the road for too much of an extended period while trying to find the right button to press. The touch screen is a bit ‘laggy’ and not very responsive. People over a certain age are best staying away from this car. The front windshield is way too high, and the sun visors don’t do a good job. In fact, they actually block out the rear view mirror at times. No space for the parcel shelf when the rear seats are in place. Accessing the space saver wheel is best done with someone who has a degree in physics. It’s the worst design I have ever seen. It is accessed via the boot, and is attached to a wire. Once you access the wheel, you then have to open a box that is also attached to the wheel/wire to access the jack. All of which would be totally rusted and rendered useless in a couple of years of driving.
You have a point accessing the spare tyre.I did it twice just to try it out it is very fiddly but can be done.On the previous model you didn't have the spare wheel box contraption set up.I have driven the 1.6 d for nearly three years now I have always struggled a bit with the 6 box gear change.Easy to go from one to four it is a notchy change. Everything els is excellent 52mpg Very comfy seats and the big boot for my wife's' wheelchair.I might go for the same model this year the 1.5 diesel and if possible the automatic,It is a lovely car to live with.Iam nearly seventy my wife wants the CD player back we have many CDs don't like the stick.
7:15 however by saying that, you have to imagine how much better that extra HP and torque will be when lugging 5 people about with their luggage or 7 people. It'll make a world of difference.
Had one from its launch in 2014. I had the 115 bhp 1.6 HDI. Amazing car. Things i didnt like was the bixenon headlights. Driving at night was not good. High beam was amazing. Near beam was like turning your lights off. Rear 3D lights crack up and start to take in water. Would i buy one again? Oh yes defenately.
We've just bought one of these cars and it does have a place for the boot cover just behind the additional seats ,obviously he didn't read the hand book which also has a compartment under the steering wheel to store the hand book we love the car ours is 14 reg .
Just beware that the floor storage is a safety issue if you have a rearwardfacing childseat where the support leg rests on the lid. Citroen does not offer a filler like VW and Ford to make it safe. I had to go to the hardware store to buy a block of EPS to fill it. (Recommended by BeSafe)
If you ever review a Flair one of these, if the keys are near enough to the boot, you can just move your foot under the boot and it will automatically open. You don’t even have to use the key button or the main button
Looks pretty good. I never think that a car of this size should be expected to carry 7 people plus 7 suitcases. The smallest vehicle that can do that convincingly is a VW Transporter. 5 plus loads of luggage or 7 adults comfortably with a bit of luggage should be fine. Folk think van based people movers are cheap. They are not. This would be much cheaper.
Looks amazing. Good fuel economy, tons of space for cargo, passengers and to go camping. And nice window in front to enjoy the scenery. Perhaps a tad boring, but super useful.
I love it. If it had RWD or AWD the engine could've been swapped for a something more powerful to make it a front engined modern day Renault Espace F1. Sleeper cars are the coolest.
Not sure what the complaints are from Matt about the seats. My Brother In Law has 2 kids and he has this car, bottom line is unless your kids are old enough to NOT need car seats or booster seats then you'll likely never use the back 2 seats because you will need to undo the iso fixings for the car seat in order to fold one of the seats to use the back 2. He's never used the back 2 seats EVEN when his parents come to visit because as i said you can't put the child seats in the back row, and you can't stuff grandparents into the back 2 seats - so it's a 2 car journey. Storage is MORE of an issue!, not enough for a car of this size. However you have to make compromises when you are a parent and most of these cars spend most of their lives doing 5-10 mile journeys to and from School and the work then off to the shops and kids clubs & activities.
it is so much glass. I'm driving in Luxembourg, I close my panoramic sun roof in my car, because it is too much sun goes into the car. but with this one, wont be that nice summer time. of course winter would be great :)
Really great car in many areas, style, practicality, space, consumption etc, but Citroen should make safety cage more stronger and fit curtain airbags that extend much further, now curtain airbag is so small it probably wont be enough on smaller overlap collisions.
So it's got front parking sensors, rear parking sensors, rear parking camera, electronic tailgate, Awesome looking DRLs, sunroof, and about as much boot space as any other MPV here in India. Just started watching the video. I guess it's gonna be a pricey MPV. With all the safety features which can only be found in super expensive luxury cars in india, I guess the car will cost anywhere from £100,000 to £150,000. The most expensive MPV we have in India is a Toyota for £50,000 with two rear parking sensors, manual tailgate, manual seat adjustments, Steering with rake but no reach function, and umm.. Oh yeah, they finally added more than 2 airbags in cars costing over £50,000.
kaihtheloner Toyota is fcking overpriced in Southern Asia and India. They keep offering us garbage cars while reserving the better lineup for European & American market. Ugh!
Lovely car but big issue is the door column is too far forward thus making entry to an non average-sized person difficult. :( Not sure if it is the same on the smaller version (the 5-seater). Unfortunately, nobody gives you these details (or notices them.) So fed up of hearing about 'cheap plastics' - we need to get over the plastic issue, alright? And Mat, to me, your reviews would be even more brilliant if you added two more people in them - one a short person (to see how they would reach pedals and see over dashboard) and a fat person (to see how easy or hard it would be for them to enter/exit the car and fit behind the steering wheel.) After watching many reviews and test driving several cars, I am beginning to wonder how the NCAP safety stars apply to non-standard sized drivers. For example, would the airbags deploy in the case of a fat driver whose stomach touches the steering wheel? (I am allowed to say the F-word since I am one myself.)
HANSE658 When i think about avant-garde i think about Mercedes, not Citroen. And this weird thingy has zero to do with a DS, SM or anything else that used to be 'cool'.
has date setting in software but does not display date on instrument panel. For 30 Grand I find this a poor show. Citroen say they will look at it for the future. Don't hold your breath. Local dealer Taw Citroen couldn't even bother to address my complaint
I have the previous model 2009 with the ECG gearbox I wonder if they have improved the drive? mine shudders like hell when pulling away then on cross roads or roundabouts push accelerator pedal down nothing happens by the time it does there's a car looming up on you and the thing surges forward I find it rather tricky to drive plus the fact there's a lot more to go wrong, if I bought one of these I would play safe and go for a manual gearbox because I don't think there's any improvement on this new model.
WHILST LOOKING FOR A CAR THT HAS ROOM I FIND IT HARD TO SEE WHAT THE PPL ARE SHOWING IN THE BACK SEEMS TO ME THEY NEED A TORCH TO PUT LIGHT IN THERE SO WE CAN SEE ALL WHATS THERE THATS MY ONLY COMPLAINT ABOUT LOOKING FOR A NEW CAR THANK YOU
I have a c4 hdi blue flair mk2 hatchback love the car but they say fuel economy is 70 mpg around about. I travel on a Monday from Rushden to Coventry then on Friday back again. In the week my car does not move until Friday. And what iam getting on a 1.6 ltr diesel 100 bhp is 47 is this normal then as I have noticed you saying it on the video?
What if you are driving at night, you have to pull over and get some stuff out of the back? When you open the tail gate, you are raising the tail lights as well and you are practicly invisible...
I hated the outside look of my 2009 Citroen Picasso and the interior was odd as well. All things said I'm definitely not a fan of the Citroen Picasso however it is a good family car with lots of space.
Matt said the Touran/Sharan are both dull compared to this, and only better slightly in practicality and driving, but then again in germany and other countries outside of the UK this citroen is better, because the french cars don't change their fusebox onto the steering wheel side for the UK, so the glovebox is huge in other countries.
Been using the C4 Grand Picasso for work for around 7 months now, and I really don't get why they are liked so much. Personally it is quite a bland car outside and in. It is not a car you go 'Wow' at, it is quite boring especially in the white we have. Inside I find it cramped for the larger driver, I am 6'3" and 18 stone, anything over an hour behind the wheel and my legs and back aches and so uncomfortable in the seating area, the rear seats are even worse with the seat belt mounts sticking in your thighs. The electronics are quite frustrating, I found my Mondeo and Octavia so much easier to use, and the Sat Nav is unreliable so I use a stand alone Tom Tom or Garmin, dependent on what is available. We have four C4's and so far one has had a failed battery, another the wing mirrors have stopped folding in and out, and another has major electronic issues with the dashboard one day being like a Christmas Tree and another shows a single blue light. I read about possible poor electrics before we started using them, and it seems in that respect previous reviews are accurate. So how does it perform. On average about 53mpg over the 15,000 miles done in each vehicle so far, not too bad. Power is adequate but can seem a bit leaden with four on board, but it is the handling that lets it down. It does not handle like either of the above two cars mentioned, I know it sits higher but it is vague on bends wanting to understeer and throw you out in to the middle of the road, slow ponderous execution of turns are the order of the day, especially when four or five on board. I would hate to be a small child and having to sit in seats six and seven. And it fishtails like a, well fish in high winds or any cross wind, and I am not talking the strong winds we can experience. I don't hate this car, but I certainly do not love it, for me it is a boring car that I would not wish to own up to having one sat on the drive. There are far better cars out there for the money, but hey ho, each to their own.
The vehicles are company cars, we use 6 out of 7 days for journeys throughout the UK. So far we are averaging about 25,000 miles a year on Motorways, A Roads and B Roads. I stand by my review, these cars are not fit for our purpose, and my colleagues irrespective of sex, height and weight have all suffered from back and leg pains. There are far better cars out there for similar or less money.
ni9eofse7en well the problem is your 18 stone and the seat won’t go back that far so obviously it’s uncomfortable if your stomachs hitting the steering wheel, much love Citroen

You missed the trick Mat, you can store the boot cover when the three rows of seats are up in the recess at either side of the car behind the seats fits great, take another look! the seats are easy to fold out, you do not need to take the covers all the way off as you did, just fold them back grab both straps and pull the seats come up together and fit the space perfectly.

I’ve had my Citroen c4 picasso 5 door diesel flair 120 bhp from 3000 miles it’s been a great car averaging 47 mpg mainly local useage, it’s vast inside with loads of extras as standard, I’ve had the car maintained by my local service Citroen agent, it hasn’t missed a beat,even moved two single beds in it, so if your looking for a roomy economical family car this must be on your list
Got one recently as a work/utility car (as opposed to my weekend toys) for just € 14.000, 4 years / 58.000km. 2.0 bluehdi exclusive automatic, pumped up the engine to 190+hp with a tune... it's quite the good car for the money, lot of space to load stuff and people and it's not a slouch either.
Apart from having a possible seven seats - it's not as practical as the Xsara Picasso, which was beautifully simple and uncluttered, with more open space, especially the oh, so useful, lack of centre console enabling access to the rear without getting out of the car. I spent many hours driving,working and sleeping in my 2.0hdi.
With the rear centre seat removed and an infill used, it provided a perfectly flat bed with extra length between the front seats. PLUS - it was free of so many unnecessary electronic gimmicks so prone to go wrong. Other people may have made fun of them - but I've never met anyone who owned one who didn't love it!
Sorry, I know the comments should really apply to the C4!
A great looking car!
So much better than all the boring tasteless boxes on the road.
I went to look at a 2017 one today as I am in the market for an MPV for micro camping/every day family car. I was absolutely impressed with the car and can I just say, putting the seats into any of its multi configuration was so easy, not complicated or a faff. I would love to know or hear a bit more about the engines and reliability. Thank you for doing this review.
I've been reading that reliability is pretty good (I know!) Especially the 2.0l HDi

Owner Review: 1.6d.

You can also change what the screen layout/colour over the screen there is also sun blinds that pull out from the windows !
It's sad that Citroën ditched the iconic “Picasso” name for “Spacetourer”. :(
And it's even sadder they abandoned Hydroactive suspension. This car would be an instant buy with H3+ :|

The diesel versions use Adblue and are well known for a fault warning on the dash. The Adblue sensor in the tank can cause issues.

2018 on a 55 plate that's a pre face lift(2016) model. 2018 would probably be a Grand Space tourer! What are you playing at? Get it right!
What was that that went flying through the shot 3:05 ?? Was a piece off the seat system or just a random fly hahaa
Typical french quality
could you do the BMW 6 series gran coupe?
question. i wish to carry luggage and not ppl. Can any of the seats be removed totally, like unbolted . Mainly the middle row , to save weight? thanks
What if they make a grand cacti
They really should to be honest.
Your taste in cars is as bad as your taste in women.
+Firemarioflower it's not about being good looking, it's supposed to be cool, avant-garde and frankly citroen
HANSE658 When i think about avant-garde i think about Mercedes, not Citroen. And this weird thingy has zero to do with a DS, SM or anything else that used to be 'cool'.
Firemarioflowerll
has date setting in software but does not display date on instrument panel. For 30 Grand I find this a poor show. Citroen say they will look at it for the future. Don't hold your breath. Local dealer Taw Citroen couldn't even bother to address my complaint
I have the previous model 2009 with the ECG gearbox I wonder if they have improved the drive? mine shudders like hell when pulling away then on cross roads or roundabouts push accelerator pedal down nothing happens by the time it does there's a car looming up on you and the thing surges forward I find it rather tricky to drive plus the fact there's a lot more to go wrong, if I bought one of these I would play safe and go for a manual gearbox because I don't think there's any improvement on this new model.
The only car with comfier front seats is an s class merc - I'm not kidding astonishingly comfy in the front

Carwow pls make Nissan x trail 2017 vs citroen c4 grand spacetourer 2023
Pretty sure this isn't the latest facelift model. Why is it labeled 2017?
Why all the rush folding the chairs just one mad panic.It is a good sensible car with plenty of boot space I have one.Good to drive also.
5:40 ~ look at mats head 🤣🤣🤣
53 thousand subscribers... now we see.. well done mat!
Citroen drives smoothly
Yes I can see how 7 Seats can be confusing, it is 2 more than 5 after all.
Am looking for one of these to replace my ageing Espace (deffo best of the MPV's) but as they newest of those now 8 years old....
Wow the quality looks amazing especially on my LG G4, my new favourite car reviewer!
For 2 years. 587K subscribers. Keep it up Carwow
I just hear pou music halfway through the review lol
I have a c4 hdi blue flair mk2 hatchback love the car but they say fuel economy is 70 mpg around about. I travel on a Monday from Rushden to Coventry then on Friday back again. In the week my car does not move until Friday.
And what iam getting on a 1.6 ltr diesel 100 bhp is 47 is this normal then as I have noticed you saying it on the video?
I love the Kia Carens!!!
I sat in one today in a Peugeot dealership and I was blown away.
Matthew M it's a Citroen
Got mine from a Peugeot dealership lol
Why is this billed as a 2017 review when the car clearly has 2015 plates.
What if you are driving at night, you have to pull over and get some stuff out of the back?
When you open the tail gate, you are raising the tail lights as well and you are practicly invisible...
I from Egypt my father get this car the car is very beautiful and options are good
I hated the outside look of my 2009 Citroen Picasso and the interior was odd as well. All things said I'm definitely not a fan of the Citroen Picasso however it is a good family car with lots of space.
James Garton my family have had citreon c4s for 9 years and they are terrible abd are so lupmy if they were any more lumpy theyed be a soild
Matt, still feel the dashboard deserves a place in the Tate Modern?
What does C4 actually stand for?
yeah all three guy showed thumbs up
Prefer a knob
I would have waited for the restyled one!
The 2017 versions that are out now offer much better in the way of technology that's been added.
Could you guys do the new espace???
we don't have the espace in the UK
+Billy Johnson Rest In Pepperonis. Too bad because I would really like to see Mat's view on that car in comparison to this vehicle
do a review of a new reanault scenic cuz tha scenic video wasnt that good review
Waiting for ur review for Renault Grand Scenic
If you know how much better the 2.0 is over the 1.6, you would stick to the 2.0.
Could you do the new Ford S-Max review please?
This actually looks like a pretty fun, practical car ^-^
Was that an engine warning light next to the AC icon at 0:58?
Engine wasn't on...
But french quality = unreliable in future
+ZAMIN! No not really. We have a 9 year old Citroen Xsaroa Picasso and there has only ever been one major problem.
Our 12 year old Renault Laguna II with 250,000 km's on it feels more tight and solid than a 2 year old Passat with 40,000 km's on it.
Pls review the new Toyota Vellfire. Thx
The new Touran hasn't had a chance against this Citroen in other tests (even German), so Matt, you are alone (or paid?).
Matt said the Touran/Sharan are both dull compared to this, and only better slightly in practicality and driving, but then again in germany and other countries outside of the UK this citroen is better, because the french cars don't change their fusebox onto the steering wheel side for the UK, so the glovebox is huge in other countries.
Howling at the eyebrow picture
I do like the look of it but unfortunately I just always wonder about build quality of French cars.
We have one, it's reliable
I have a C4 Picasso which is shorter than the grand but build quality is still very good.
its published june 2016 and this a 2017 review ??????
I laughed way too hard at his picture😂
Carbuyer Make a Review of the Peugeot 306
Been using the C4 Grand Picasso for work for around 7 months now, and I really don't get why they are liked so much. Personally it is quite a bland car outside and in. It is not a car you go 'Wow' at, it is quite boring especially in the white we have. Inside I find it cramped for the larger driver, I am 6'3" and 18 stone, anything over an hour behind the wheel and my legs and back aches and so uncomfortable in the seating area, the rear seats are even worse with the seat belt mounts sticking in your thighs. The electronics are quite frustrating, I found my Mondeo and Octavia so much easier to use, and the Sat Nav is unreliable so I use a stand alone Tom Tom or Garmin, dependent on what is available.
We have four C4's and so far one has had a failed battery, another the wing mirrors have stopped folding in and out, and another has major electronic issues with the dashboard one day being like a Christmas Tree and another shows a single blue light. I read about possible poor electrics before we started using them, and it seems in that respect previous reviews are accurate.
So how does it perform. On average about 53mpg over the 15,000 miles done in each vehicle so far, not too bad. Power is adequate but can seem a bit leaden with four on board, but it is the handling that lets it down. It does not handle like either of the above two cars mentioned, I know it sits higher but it is vague on bends wanting to understeer and throw you out in to the middle of the road, slow ponderous execution of turns are the order of the day, especially when four or five on board. I would hate to be a small child and having to sit in seats six and seven. And it fishtails like a, well fish in high winds or any cross wind, and I am not talking the strong winds we can experience.
I don't hate this car, but I certainly do not love it, for me it is a boring car that I would not wish to own up to having one sat on the drive. There are far better cars out there for the money, but hey ho, each to their own.
So you didn't look at it or sit in it before you bought it?
ni9eofse7en clearly it's a company car this person uses occasionally!
The vehicles are company cars, we use 6 out of 7 days for journeys throughout the UK. So far we are averaging about 25,000 miles a year on Motorways, A Roads and B Roads. I stand by my review, these cars are not fit for our purpose, and my colleagues irrespective of sex, height and weight have all suffered from back and leg pains. There are far better cars out there for similar or less money.
ni9eofse7en well the problem is your 18 stone and the seat won’t go back that far so obviously it’s uncomfortable if your stomachs hitting the steering wheel, much love Citroen
I had one of these it lasted 2 weeks before the turbo blew up.
Does it make a good Minicab?
