IRELAND - Citroen announces the latest special edition to hit the streets, the Rip Curl C4 Cactus.

Citroën’s New C4 Cactus Rip Curl Special Edition has arrived in Irish showrooms and is available to order now with pricing starting at €23,995. The new Special Edition introduces Grip Control to the C4 Cactus range for the very first time and features RipCurl inspired styling elements to emphasise the adventurous character of the multi-award-winning model.

Citroën and the world famous surf brand, Rip Curl, have joined forces to create the C4 Cactus Rip Curl Special Edition, which will arrive in Ireland this October and is available to order now.

Featuring unique interior and exterior styling elements to complement the adventurous nature of  the model, the new C4 Cactus Special Edition boasts Rip Curl graphics on the wings and rear quarter-lights; white roof rails and door mirrors; orange seatbelts; orange detailing on the audio speakers; and orange-trimmed carpet mats.

Embodying both brands’ values of innovation, creativity and spirit of adventure, the Special Edition also introduces Grip Control to the C4 Cactus range for the first time.
