| Ground clearance: | 142 mm (5.6 inches) | 156 mm (6.1 inches) | |
| Because of the higher ground clearance, Citroen C4 can perform better on bad roads - it can go over higher obstacles and bumps. At the same time, the higher ground clearance can reduce stability and handling on paved roads, especially at higher speeds. Note, however, that this Citroen C4 version does not have 4x4 drive, which is very important in poor road conditions. | |||
