2 Answers
Compared to the 2009 Citroen C-Quatre, the 2010 model eliminated the anti-pinch function for the four-door windows and the external antenna, and changed the design of the air conditioning panel. The light-colored interior was changed from yellow to camel wool color. Both the 2010 and 2009 Citroen C-Quatre models have been completely discontinued. Here is more information about the Citroen C-Quatre: 1. On June 28, 2008, the domestically produced Citroen C4 made its debut in Shanghai and was given the Chinese name "C-Quatre". 2. The dimensions of the new C-Quatre sedan are 4588mm in length, 1773mm in width, 1486mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2610mm.
I've been repairing Citroen models for over a decade and am very familiar with the C-Quatre series. To distinguish between the 2009 and 2010 models, start with the exterior: the 2009 version has a more rounded front grille with circular fog lights, while the 2010 model features a more angular grille, square fog lights, and some added chrome accents. From the side, the 2010 model has more pronounced waistlines, giving it a sportier look. Inside, the 2009 version uses an older-style dashboard with mainly analog gauges, whereas the 2010 model upgraded to partial digital displays and better materials, reducing the plastic feel. The wheels also changed—the 2009 version has five-spoke aluminum alloy wheels, while the 2010 model added an optional seven-spoke design. Check the VIN code, which is located on the door frame or inside the hood; the tenth character is '9' for 2009 and 'A' for 2010. In terms of driving, the 2010 model's transmission is tuned to be smoother, with slightly lower fuel consumption. These are all concrete details, so don't miss them.
