THE 2001 CITROËN XSARA FIVE DOOR

• New exterior styling provides strong visual impact and added night visibility
• Two new engines with more performance, better fuel economy and lower emissions
• New fuzzy logic adaptive automatic gearbox
• New equipment levels and equipment features.

Citroën’s acclaimed five door hatch the Xsara, has gained a new look for 2001, with an all new exterior ahead of the ‘a’ pillar, a new rear hatch and changed side panels that combine to produce a look that is both dynamic and attractive.

But the changes to the Citroën Xsara are not all superficial, with the Xsara also boasting two new engines with above class average out puts of 83 and 102 kW and a new automatic gearbox that uses the latest fuzzy logic adaptive technology. Conventional electrics have been ousted by the computer based multiplex system that both simplifies and speeds servicing and maintenance and enables the Xsara to offer a wider range of standard and optional electrical equipment and features.

Already a by-word for ride, handling and road holding, the 2001 Xsara’s on road abilities have been further enhanced with a wider track front and rear and the adoption of the latest ABS brake system with electronic brake force distribution as standard on the Coupe VTS and an option on other versions.

Even the stylish new teardrop headlights boast a practical advance for the Xsara. On both low and high beam they offer 20 per cent more light than their predecessors.

The 2001 Citroën Xsara five-door range consists of three versions, all with five doors and with a choice of both a five-speed manual and four-speed automatic gearbox mated to the new 1.6 litre 83 kW engine or the 2.0 litre 102 kW unit with the automatic gearbox as standard.

“The Citroën Xsara was already a benchmark car in its class,” says Miles Williams, General Manager for Citroën in Australia. “These host of changes enable the Xsara to match its competitors not just in looks, but also feature for feature and to further extend its enviable magic carpet ride quality reputation. We expect it to gain many new converts to Citroën in Australia.”
