Category: Sporting 4x4s 
Price Range: £23,345 to £26,120
Good to drive, smooth diesel engine, plenty of cabin space.
Rear seats only for occasional use, limited off-road, bland styling, lacks prestige badge.
Smart, capable and practical 4x4.
The C-Crosser is built by Mitsubishi - known for making tough, durable 4x4s - and has Citroen's own diesel engine, which should also prove reliable. However, this is an all-new unit with complex electronic systems and that's not generally a Citroen strong point.
Inside, the cabin shares architecture with the Outlander. The design lacks flair although it's well screwed together. The plastics are better than the original Mitsubishi's, but there's still a little too much cheap-looking mock silver trim for our liking.
