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  
a

nd   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  
i

f   the   driver   does   not   react   or   does   not   react  
s

ufficiently.

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.
