If you haven't gotten the message, the old wagons and sedans are no longer in fashion.

With the demand for traditional design styles waning automakers are looking outside the box. This Citroen C4 X is a perfect illustration.

It's a bit difficult to identify the style of its body, however the double chevron proclaims it's an "unique option" to SUVs and hatchbacks.

In essence it's basically, C4 X is Citroen's version of the Peugeot 408 which was unveiled earlier in the month.

It's 4600 millimeters (181.1 inches) long, so it's placed within the range between the C4 and the C5 X, in terms of overall length.

It is the same 2,670 millimeter (105.1 inches) base wheel as C4 and is 1,800 millimeters (70.8 in) in width and 1,525 millimeters (60 millimeters) taller.

It is therefore somewhat smaller (and higher) than the model sporting the Lion badge.

The smaller footprint is evident in the less capacity for cargo, which is 515 cubic feet (18 cubic feet) instead of the Peugeot's 536 liters (nearly 19 cubic feet).

The swoopy, sloping shape of the car gives it a drag coefficient, which is 0.29 for greater efficiency.

In a few major European markets like Germany, France, Italy as well as Spain, Citroen will sell the fastback on stilts only using an electric powertrain.

The e-C4 X has an energy-efficient battery that can last for the equivalent of 224 miles (360 kilometers) within the WLTP cycle.

It is able to be charged up to an 80 percent capacity within a half-hour using AC power of 100kW.

The motivation is supplied by an electric motor that produces the equivalent of 136 horsepower (100 Kilowatts) and 262 Newton-meters (191 pounds) in torque.

When Sport Mode (yes, there's an option) turned on, the Citroen e-C4 X will need 9.7 seconds to sprint from zero to 62 mph before reaching 95 miles per hour.

On certain markets in the world it will be offered with gasoline and diesel engines. All models are to be made within Spain at Stellantis manufacturing plant in Madrid.
