Citroën’s stunning concept supercar, the C-Métisse, will also be on display, making its first ever appearance in the UK.
With its aviation-inspired cockpit, gull-wing doors and ‘fighter jet’ style roof controls, the C-Métisse. Capable of a top speed of 155mph, the exceptionally stylish and super-futuristic Citroën has the ability to cover 45 miles per gallon on the combined cycle and emits just 174g/km of CO2 thanks to its three drive trains – an economical 208bhp V6 HDi diesel engine, plus two separate electric motors on the rear wheels to develop an additional 400Nm of torque and allow the car to run in Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) Mode.
The car weight at 1400kg thanks to the specially designed carbon fibre body. It enabling the C-Métisse to hit 0-62mph in just 6.2 seconds. A ‘boost’ function activated under heavy acceleration, engages the electric motors to combine with the combustion engine, enhancing the power and performance without increasing the fuel consumption.
