The Citroen Xsara Picasso was launched in the UK in June 2000 in 2 trim levels the LX and SX and a choice 0f 2 Petrol Engines a 1.6i 90BHP and a 1.8i 16v 117BHP or a 2.0HDi 90BHP Diesel Engine.
Early 2002 The Xsara Picasso got a new trim The Xsara Picasso Exclusive. Over the LX and SX the Exclusive has Alloy Wheels and a long Sunroof roof and Climate Control as standard. A Beige Velour Interior or a Leather Interior could be specified as a cost option. Also the added to the Exclusive Electric Folding Mirrors, Electric Rear Windows and Cruise Control and colour coded bumpers and mirrors. In 2003 the Xsara Picasso finally got a 4 Speed Automatic Gearbox powered by a 2.0i 16v 137BHP Engine which could be specified on SX or Exclusive. In 2004 The Xsara Picasso got a minor change to the exterior and a few new Engines and Trims. The SX became the Desire but with colour coded bumpers and mirrors. The 1.6i 90BHP was replaced with a 1.6i 16v 110BHP cutting co2 emissions from 178g/km to 172g/km and 2 new Diesel Engines were introduced a 1.6HDi 16v 92BHP or a 1.6HDi 16v 110BHP. The Exclusive was givin 2 new luxurys which were Automatic Headlamps and Automatic Wipers but loses the long sunroof. In 2005 the 1.8i 16v was discontinued. In 2006 the 2.0HDi 90BHP was discontinued. In 2007 the 2.0 16v Automatic was discontinued and also the LX and Exclusive Trim were discontined and replaced with the Current Desire and a new VTX Trim. The VTX looks identical to the Exclusive on the outside but specifications are abit different. The VTX loses the Climate Control and the Automatic Headlamps and Wipers but gained Rear Parking Sensors as Standard. After 9 years The Xsara Picasso is still selling strong and is one of the best selling MPVs in Europe. The C4 5 Seat Picasso is ment to be the Xsara Picasso's replacement but with its popularity Citroen decided to keep it on the market for a longer period. As of May 2010 Production of The Xsara Picasso has now come to an end. 2000 - 2010 |
