CITROËN AUSTRALIA

Citroën enjoys an unrivalled reputation for suspension design, both in high technology systems, such as the Citroën C5's third generation Hydractive suspension and, as in the case of the Xsara, taking a seemingly basic system and refining and honing to point where its performance defies its basic specification.

It is the combination of the magic carpet ride that is so ideally suited to Australian conditions with a level of steering and chassis responsiveness that puts the Xsara firmly in a sports hatch category.

With the 2001 Xsara, its position as the benchmark has been further enhanced by increasing the track by 10 mm at the front and 12 mm at the rear and fitting 15 inch wheels to all models. This has enabled the MacPherson Strut/Torsion beam with passive rear steer system employed by the Xsara to offer higher levels of stability and an even more fluid ride.
