Next year will probably see the new Citroen C4 Picasso revealed, most likely at the 2012 Paris Motor Show, and which should be market ready by the end of the year. The model won’t be any bigger than the current Picasso at 4.5 metres long, but it will be based on the new Citroen C4, and will have a longer wheelbase to create more interior space.

The reports from Autobild refer to the Picasso model with no information on the larger, seven-seat Grand Picasso. It saw a restyling in 2010 but could follow after the C4 Picasso gets its debut. The new style is apparently inspired by the DS range with some extra sports style and a rear look that’s closer to the DS5 and not a classic MPV.

The new Picasso engine range will be the same as that of the standard C4 and will have the new 1.6-litre petrol engines developed by the PSA group and BMW, and a two-litre diesel, along with e-HDI models with start&stop.

The Citroen C4 Picasso and C4 Grand Picasso models have been officially revealed. Likely to go on display at the 2010 Paris Motor Show, the MPV Citroens have been updated to take on more of the recent design style and new logo of the company. The logo has been retouched to give it a softer look, and both Picasso models get LED day lights.

On the technical front, Citroen’s impressive e-HDi engines with start&stop technology are now available with the 1.6 HDi engine with 110 hp. This drops fuel consumption to an average of just 4.8 l/100 km and emissions measure 125 g/km. The C4 Picasso and Grand Picasso join the updated range with the new Citroen C4 and recently announced DS4 models.
