			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>From all <a href="http://www.vbmotorsport.com/cat/concept-cars/">concepts </a>presented at <a href="http://www.vbmotorsport.com/cat/auto-show/">2007 Frankfurt Motor Show</a>, <a href="http://www.vbmotorsport.com/cat/citroen/">Citroen </a>was one of the most interesting, with <strong>C-Cactus</strong>.<br />
The car has a special form and it situates somewhere between small and mono-volume cars, but its ecological performance are outstanding.</p>
<p><a href='http://www.vbmotorsport.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/c-cactus_9.jpg' title='c-cactus_9.jpg'><img src='http://www.vbmotorsport.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/c-cactus_9.jpg' alt='c-cactus_9.jpg' /></a><br />

<p><strong>C-Cactus </strong>sets high standards of on-board comfort with a roomy interior that is worthy of a family car. It is 4.2 meters long and 1.8 meters wide with a <strong>wide range of equipment </strong>including air conditioning with automatic temperature control, a high-quality audio system, a panoramic glass sunroof, cruise control and a speed limiter.<br />
With its <strong>diesel hybrid drive train</strong> combining a 70 bhp DIN HDi <a href="http://www.vbmotorsport.com/cat/engines/">diesel engine</a> with a particulate filter and an <a href="http://www.vbmotorsport.com/cat/electric-cars/">electric motor </a>providing additional power of 30 bhp DIN, <a href="http://www.vbmotorsport.com/cat/concept-cars/">C-Cactus</a> consumes just 3.4l/100 km with CO2 emission levels of 78 g/km over a combined cycle. </p>

<p>In urban use, <strong>ZEV </strong>(Zero Emission Vehicle) mode provides silent, all-electric operation. On journeys involving successive acceleration and deceleration, the <strong>hybrid system</strong> limits fuel consumption by using both types of energy.<br />
The solutions adopted for the design of <strong>C-Cactus</strong> also contribute to bringing down fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. Using fewer parts makes the vehicle 15% lighter than a <a href="http://www.vbmotorsport.com/cat/car-hybrids/">C4 Hybride HDi</a> for a total weight of 1,306 kg.</p>

<p>The tyre width has also been kept down (205/45 R21) on <a href="http://www.vbmotorsport.com/cat/concept-cars/">C-Cactus</a>, which adds to environmental performance.</p>
