"El taxi Citroën C4 - UN TAXI A LA CARTA

El Citroën C4 se utilizó como taxi a finales de los años veinte en numerosos países europeos. Su notable potencia, su habitáculo amplio, su larga distancia entre ejes y la posibilidad de elegir diferentes tipos de carrocería lo convirtieron en un vehículo muy adecuado para el servicio público."

C SERIES (1928-1932)

 

"The new Citroën range was unveiled at the Paris Motor Show in October 1928. This was an important date in the history of the brand since Citroën was presenting not only the new C4 (replacing the B14), but also a new luxury model equipped with a six-cylinder engine: the C6.

Featuring all the innovations of their predecessor, including the all-steel bodywork, these two models enjoyed a successful career up to 1932. In 1931,the range included no fewer than 47 different versions.

On 1 April 1932, the C4 and C6 gained a floating-power engine: a revolution in automotive comfort. The C4 gained an enduring reputation for strength, and was still a frequent sight on the road in the 1950s."
