Exterior
Customising kits
These expressive stickers form part   of   a   range   of   kits,   very  
d
ifferent   one   from   another,   which  
a
llow you to create a unique 
and
  attractive   exterior   for   your  
v
ehicle.
Guide-me-home lighting
After switching off the ignition, under low lighting conditions the headlamps remain   on   for   a   few   seconds   to   help   you   leave   the   vehicle.
Active City Brake
The purpose of this system is to avoid a frontal collision   or   reduce   the   speed   of   impact   if   the  
d
river   does   not   take   action   or   does   not   take  
s
ufficient   action.

Stop & Start
This system puts the engine t
emporarily   on   standby   during  
s
tops   in   the   traffic   (red   lights,   traffic  
j
ams,   etc...).   The   engine   restarts  
a
utomatically   as   soon   as   you   want   to  
m
ove   off.   Stop   &   Start reduces   fuel  
c
onsumption,   exhaust   emissions   and  
n
oise   levels   when   stationary.
