The Grand C4 Picasso differs from its "younger brother" by having two additional passenger seats. Moreover, these two seats were not simply "squeezed" into the cabin of the base C4 Picasso; for the seven-seat modification, Citroen specifically lengthened the wheelbase. There are also differences in the exterior appearance.
But in general, these two minivans are produced on the same modular platform developed by PSA Peugeot-Citroen - EMP2. On this platform, by the way, the concern plans to produce half of its models. About EMP2, it can also be said that it is equipped with McPherson struts on the front suspension and a torsion beam on the "rear" of the car.
As for the exterior, the body of the new model has become larger, the equipment is more technological, and the design reminded of "cars of the future" that can be seen in science fiction films. The selector for choosing "automatic" modes is located behind the steering wheel, and the instrument panel is replaced by a color monitor.
The Ukrainian configuration will have two engines to choose from: a gasoline engine with a volume of 1.6 liters and a power of 120 hp, or a "diesel" with a power of 115 horsepower, which can be equipped with a "Start-Stop" system and braking energy recuperation. Both engines come with a manual transmission, but a "robot" can be installed on cars with a diesel engine.
The basic configuration of the Citroen C4 Picasso with a gasoline engine costs 301,300 UAH. The diesel "base" will cost 331,200 UAH, and for the top version you will have to pay 378,400 UAH.
