The very first car in the world to be awarded a 4-star Euro NCAP pedestrian safety rating, as well as '5 stars' for occupant protection, the new Citroën C6 could arguably be the safest executive saloon today.
This pedestrian safety rating is possible with the C6's 'Active Bonnet System'. The bonnet raises automatically by 65mm - in about 0.04 seconds - for more impact absorbing space during an accident to reduce the likelihood of head injuries for pedestrians. The C6 also offers nine airbags, active head restraints and ESP with traction control as standard. Other features include a 'Head-Up Display', a 'Lane Departure Warning System' and Xenon directional headlamps.
