I like it very much, particularly the interior's futuristic minimalist style.
The real thing is due in about a year's time.

looks like the flaps on the front and rear wing were an after thought, as they have cut then into the wheel arch trims,

so does it run on cactus juice :o :lol: :wink:

It's got an Austin Allegro steering wheel. Yep,too much like a Range Rover . I quite like the R R Evoke, but a Citroen needs to be different. Is that a bench seat?

This is the blurb from my local Citroen dealer.

Here it is then folks, the fully-revealed Citroen Cactus Concept. With an unrivalled fuel economy (more than 94mpg!) a fully digital dashboard, an emphasis on comfort and air bumps to fend off minor scrapes and scratches that often occur down the sides of vehicles, this is looking pretty special to us. With the C4 Cactus the name of the version that will be released next year, are you excited for this new breed of vehicle?

I quite fancy the 94mpg bit! The profile is alarmingly like a cross between the RR Evoke and the new Mini Countryman. The "Air Bumps" seem to be designed for supermarket trolley morons. They need to put some on the four corners for "parallel parking experts" :roll:
