Citroen announces post-budget price freeze

Citroen has announced they will cover the cost of the recently announced 2 per cent VAT increase on behalf of their customers. This is available on all post-budget orders until 31st December, and registered by the 31st March in participating Citroen dealerships nationwide.

They say the price freeze will give certainty to customers ordering a new car for delivery in the New Year.

The 2 per cent VAT increase announced in the Budget will have an impact of up to €550 on the recommended retail price of Citroen C5 and C4 Picasso models. In addition, a total of 19 passenger models qualify for Tax B and A road tax.

Customers can also reduce their spending at the pumps with a range of HDi and e-HDi diesel engines from the brand, delivering up to 83mpg for the C3 e-HDi 70 Airdream EGS. This new version of the C3 supermini, emitting just 87g/km, is now Citroen's most fuel and C02 efficient diesel car.
