IMPECCABLE ROAD MANNERS
Efficient running gear
The running gear of the C4 offers precise handling,
while also effectively contributing to active
safety. The front suspension features a McPherson
type strut with lower wishbones and an anti-roll
bar. The rear suspension features a flexible
transverse beam associated with an anti-roll
bar.
Damping control is adapted to optimise the balance
between comfort and handling.
Depending on the level of trim and the engine, the
C4 is available with 15-inch wheels and 195/65R15
tyres, 16-inch wheels with 205/55R16 tyres, or
17-inch wheels with 205/50R17 tyres.
Variable-assistance power steering is standard, and
controlled by an electric pump unit. The level of
assistance is linked to vehicle speed and the angle
of the steering wheel.
High-performance brakes
The C4’s braking system features ventilated discs
at the front and discs at the rear, combined with
EBS and electronic brakeforce distribution
(EBD).
To further improve braking safety, the C4 is fitted
as standard with emergency braking assistance (EBA)
and automatic hazard warning lights.
ESP (electronic stability programme) is also
available with all engines. It is coupled with
traction control to prevent skidding. This systems
can be disconnected with the 180 bhp 2.0i 16V
engine.
Braking performance is among the best in the
segment, with precise ABS and ESP control.
