Design award for C4 Cactus

The design and styling of the Citroen C4 Cactus has won the model the 'Production Car of the Year' award from Car Design News, a trade publication for automotive design professionals, writes Brian Byrne.

The publication said the C4 Cactus manages to 'side-step the usual product replacement-driven development cycles and rigid marketing requirements'.

The C4 Cactus was launched last year.
