@lalos you could turn off the whole multimedia system and so less electricity is used...
@ufhero ofc you use less fuel if you dont drive a car :D That's a showcase here
***** Not sure how to converse with you on new topics. www.leftlanenews.com/facelifted-2016-volkswagen-passat-coming-this-fall-89298.html
It appears VW America is updating out Passat. I agree with all of the updates except for the engine choices. At this time, the American Passat has three engines (1.8 turbo, 2.0 diesel, 3.6 V6). I understand VW is trying to meet new CAFE standards by putting the new 1.4 turbo in place of the 1.8 turbo. But, this is a HUGE car and it needs more displacement. And Thomas, I agree with your statements that a smaller engine will lead to worse fuel economy in real world testing.
Very good tips for low consumption! Some of them are really not spoiling fun in driving. Car is also great looking, especially in red and very frugal. Less than four ltrs is really incredible for me.
g00dfeeling thanks buddy!
Enjoyable road trip ! A very spunky little car and I can picture myself doing the highlands of Scotland and maybe NC500 tour.
Economy driving is also a form of performance driving. I like to do it too. Yeah, I am Dutch.
the purple colour looks amazing! *-*
Thanks for the upload , keep up the great reviews, which i enjoy very much. Looking forward to the next one.
Robgti180 appreciated!
100 MPG is quite Impressive Well done for the Winner team
respect Thomas! Who was the lady in Your car? I made many yeares ago a "Spritsparkurs" with ADAC and after I reduced my fuel consumption around 20%. Even with my newest car, the Qashqai 1.2 Xtonic, I am close to NEFC. One important thing to reduce fuel is to check every time the tire pressure .
+MrNordlandfahrer thanks! Katharina was accompanying me :)
Great, great video guys. You made me buy a Cactus in the near future !
thanks and glad we could help !
Your video's are awesome.
fetullah ydz thanks!
I gonna buy one here in Portugal imported from Germany (+cheapper) from 2016 is 16,500€ in germany (same car) its 11,000 max.
I would be interested in the coefficient of Drag this vehicle has ,some modern vehicles have around 0.24 or better,,would be interesting to see how the aero bumps really work.
Thanks
Joe
TechExplorer Hey Joe, thanks! We more talk about the air bumps in our review videos of that car! It seems cw value is 0.32 here, not too good, even more interesting that the low consumption could be scored
this video was exactly what I was looking for thanks
Great video :) Congratz on 2nd place!
edoo153 Hehe actually in the tie for 2nd we were put to 3rd, but thats fine with us =)
Ciao Thomas! Fun video.
I'd rather die I think than have to drive that way every day 😫
It looked like you were standing still on the motorway. Reminds me when my run flat tire caused me to drive 80kph max one time...
The Citroen is growing on me. I once owned a pair of disco shoes that purple colour wayyyy back.
Say hello to your lovely co-pilot.
Btw nice hair cut!
Mario Dalla Riva hehe thanks Mario! Yeah it was really a loooong trip :) Thanks for greeting Katharina and the hair cut - getting ready for summer ;-)
strange - those wheels are for mid-spec feel on UK cars. flair has 17" - look better but lower-profile tyres hurt the ride a little. by the way - thanks for doing this in English - appreciated!
Thanks for the great review :)
Well actually the fuel consumption shouldn't really surprise that much due to the low weight of the car. If I'm not mistaken the Cactus is based on the C3's platform which is basically a small car.
Nice video as always. Keep it up!
Kossak yeah indeed! Thanks!
Citroen c4 cactus was based on ds3?
@@sejautie C3, not DS3
@@kossak007 I have the citeron C4 cactus rip curl grip control edition it was based on citeron ds3 ?
Overall I liked the vehicle, could have some improvements for everyday comfort ,such as shade screen for panoramic roof. The contrast colors i agree dark on dark looks good ,but i did like the red on Black .I was was impressed with fuel consumption over all.To me the interior reminded me of the BMW i3 with MMI setup, clean modern design. Roof rails not sure if needed might help also with fuel consumption at speed.
Enjoyed the details and overall impression .
Thanks
Joe
TechExplorer yeap that sunshade has to be in there. I also thought about the roof rails, good point. I think they mainly serve a design purpose!
With low speeds of up to 100km/h even my Toyota Auris Hybrid is getting those numbers easily. Numbers of around 3.4-3.6L/100km.
You got style my man.
thanks keep following us!
Hello Autogefühl, am afraid i have a stupid question. Why do you recommend the Diesel Engine over the Petrol Engine? Considering that the top Petrol engine has 10 more horsepowers on the cactus. Thank you
+crx CK usually I prefer the petrol engines. But here the petrol one is too weak. If petrol and diesel have same hp, the Diesel always has more torque
+Autogefühl Thank you! :) Going for the Diesel then
Thanks Thomas for the consumption review. It's not a bad car at all, hopefully the few birth defects will be fixed by citroën. (quality of fixtures, assembly, the unfractionnable back seats). plastics will remain cheap looking I'm afraid.
Roman Jeremy thanks!
Question:::::::: as motoring experts, would you recommend the 1.2 puretech for motorway driving ? On a daily basis, would it harm the engine over time? As it only a 12?
maybe the reason you didnt get an answer here because we only answer when we are 100 % sure and refrain from speculations. The dense information you will find in the reviews, best for you is to check out more of our Citroen C4 Cactus reviews:

Autogefühl ok all is forgiven
I've just ordered a Cactus for deliver in January 2016. Where can I get a red duck? :)
+Colm O Cinnseala hehe =) I ll have a Citroen event tomorrow, I ll ask about it! Maybe I can even get some for autogefuehl viewers, lets see.
I think that u make the best cars in debth reviews on u tube, u r really talented, respect from Jerusalem \ Palestine...
Fadi Lafi really appreciated, best regards to Jerusalem!
Jerusalem 3,500 years the capital city of the of Israel.
if that was a zero to 5 metre race you easily beat that Lamborghini :)
... on a side note, several months ago i asked if Katharina would consider doing more reviews (ReiseWorld excluded) .. is the answer still no but to remain behind the camera ?
altern8ive thanks! :) hehe at least she had a camo appearance in the video, i ll talk to her again ;)
if you drive down the hill, you can even get down to 2lt/100km.
use gps on your phone... oh wait you have iphone, thas not a phone :D and i dont understand how gps use more fuel
Golf 1.6 tdi makes 3.3 lt/km
can you please give us review of citroen c4 grand Picasso. please
+ankur chauhan C4 Facelift review is available, not the Picasso though
+Autogefühl I m after C4 Grand Picasso. & no one explains the car as good as u buddy.
where can I buy the rubber ducky?? I want it!!
+iamlucky1973 that should be available at your next citroen dealer!
looks cool, why not sell in USA?
Alex Pana Citroen does not sell cars in the US in general ... thats why ... they sell in South America though
***** I know they don't but why? USA is second biggest auto market in the world. Seems like they are missing out on free money.
+Alex Pana try to buy it in Mexico :) but America protect its own market with special specification on cars !
it s really a low consumption 3.5 l
stephen10 3.4 even in the end!
Thomas, be honest, do you have a Superman suit underneath your clothes? :))
***** LOL wut? ;-)
***** I keep watching your reviews hoping to see you ripping your clothes off reveiling your Superman suit and take off into the clear blue sky. hahaaa! God bless you, Clark Kent, you've saved the car fans from all the cynical, dramatic, annoying and disrespectful car reviewers that took over the youtube.
***** amen to that brother!
***** haha thanks man =)
your german accent is easy to understand for a french guy , it s + or - the same pronunciation for us . speak slowly with simple words please .
stephen10 Always trying to put out the best for all of us :)
Hauptsache in englisch. Dann ändert auch den Namen des Kanals
Hallo!
Unsere Website für ausführliche Hintergrundinformationen machen wir auf Deutsch.Die Videos laufen über RUclips und erreichen ein internationales Publikum, sehr viele Zuschauer aus USA, Deutschland, Großbritannien, Japan, Russland und weitere aus über 100 Ländern der Welt. Darum sind die meisten unserer Videos auf Englisch, das ist der kleinste gemeinsame Nenner.
Die meisten deutschen Videozuschauer verstehen auch Englisch, aber fast alle anderen verstehen kein Deutsch. Insofern ist es nur logisch, die Videos auf Englisch anzubieten, was auch sehr gut ankommt.Wir würden uns freuen, wenn du auf Deutsch unsere Text-Berichterstattung verfolgst und auch hier unsere englischen Videos.
Herzliche Grüße
Thomas
Citroen is kind of weird desigend.
Peugeot ftw :D
