 Practicality 3.5/5
Citroen C8
Citroen C8
The Citroen C8 provides good equipment levels and decent fuel economy. The car should also enjoy high resale values. The car offers a good level of standard equipment and provides good value for money.

The C8 provides excellent cabin space. Front and middle row passengers should enjoy plenty of head, leg and elbow room, while the third row passengers will be more comfortable if they are children. Boot space varies according to the seating arrangement.

The C8’s switchgear isn’t the best quality available. The cabin’s materials definitely tip people off to the car’s cheap asking price. The controls and dials are large enough however, and all function well. Some of the controls feel cheap and flimsy and leave the cabin with a cheap look and feel.

The Citroen C8 cabin provides decent levels of comfort. Seats are large and supportive but give away a hint concerning the car’s bargain price. Cabin space is good, and road noise is effectively suppressed. Most passengers will find the cabin to be quite comfortable.

Thanks to the car’s sliding rear doors the car is extremely easy to access. The front doors open wide and provide good access to the car’s front seats, and access to the second row of seats is unhindered. Accessing the third row is a little more difficult and is easier for children or smaller passengers. The boot door opens up and provides a large aperture for easy access to the car’s boot area.

Parking the C8 is a breeze. The car is easy to steer and maneuver even into tight places, and the rear sliding doors make it easier to find a suitable spot to park since the rear doors don’t open out. Good visibility and large side mirrors help out a lot.
 
 
 Life Style 3.5/5
Citroen C8
Citroen C8
The Citroen C8 doesn’t bring anything new to driving an MPV; the car provides a controlled, comfortable ride and somewhat weighted and responsive steering. Cornering roll is successfully suppressed and the brakes feel good, as well.

This is an excellent family vehicle. The C8 provides comfortable seating for seven plus cargo space. It can easily accommodate a family and related items. The firm has focused on safety and high levels of safety are ideal for a family car.

This is not a great first car it is much too large and expensive. The C8 lacks all of the stylish features that most first time car buyers look for in a car. There are definitely better first cars on the market.

Most Citroens are seen as a value purchase rather than a stylish one. The C8 offers good value for money and provides a decent family vehicle. The car has incorporated some high-tech features with slightly lower quality cabin materials and is able to compete well in its class. However, the lower quality plastics in the cabin keep the car from competing with serious contenders.
