Latest Information on Citroen C1
The C1 city car was built with some assistance from Toyota and is based on the same underpinnings as the Aygo and Peugeot 108. It has very distinctive styling and an extensive range of contrasting colour along with three trim options. It is available with 3-cylinder engines of either 1.0-litre or 1.2-litre and with a choice of three or five doors. There’s also a model with a fabric sunroof that’s called the Airscape. It’s a cost-effective little car as well as having low CO2 emissions of less than 100 g/km. Also more refined than before but the engine can be a bit noisy and is not the most spacious of cars.

Deepal S07 L (2026) Quick ReviewThe Deepal S07 L is Changan’s opening gambit in the South African Electric Vehicle (EV) space. Priced at a hair under R1-million, it bypasses the traditional 'entry-level' EV tropes and offers a mid-size option with all the bells and whistles. With a large 80 kWh battery and the promise of near-silent operation, I approached my time with the newcomer with enthusiasm.
