Having sold more than 180,000 examples worldwide, Citroën is continuing to evolve the DS line with the unveiling of a new concept at the 2012 Geneva Auto Show – Citroën DS4 Racing.
As with DS3 Racing, Citroën Racing’s engineers have taken their multi-WRC winning expertise and put their stamp on Citroën DS4 to create this hot new concept.
The DS4 Racing concept features new carbon fiber components including an air diffuser, front splitter and wheel arch extensions. The 1.6-liter turbo engine, developed by Citroën Racing, provides up to 256 bhp, which is a record for a Citroën production car. This is accompanied by CO2 emissions of just 155 g/km.
Citroën Racing’s engineers have modified the chassis and running gear, lowering the chassis by 35 mm and widening the tracks by 55 mm at the front and 75 mm at the rear. The braking system now boasts fixed four-piston callipers at the front together with special 15 inch discs. The concept is also fitted with larger diameter 19-inch wheels and 235/40 tires.
Another stand out feature of the DS4 Racing concept is the textured-effect matt grey paint. Further exterior refinements include a two-tone roof and two-tone wheels with a special DS4 Racing design.
