The C4 Cactus has a 7-inch multimedia display with pairing for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. 

However, the lack of physical buttons can make some operations more complex, requiring more interactions on the touch screen. 

The instrument panel is digital, but simple, showing only basic information. Despite this, the car offers features such as Eco mode, which helps with more economical driving.

Performance of the Citroën C4 Cactus

The C4 Cactus offers different engine options, highlighting the top-of-the-range version, equipped with a 1.6 Turbo engine. 

The other versions have a 118 horsepower engine. Although the Turbo version is considerably more agile, the entry-level version still offers satisfactory performance for urban use and travel. 

However, in comparison with some smaller competitors, the C4 Cactus may lose a little in terms of performance.

Conclusion:

The Citroën C4 Cactus stands out in the Brazilian market as a compact SUV with an attractive design and exclusive features. 

Despite not being the sales leader, it has found its space among consumers, offering an interesting option in the segment. With different engine options and a well-executed interior finish, the C4 Cactus can be a valid choice for anyone looking for a SUV compact with style. 

However, it is important to consider the alternatives available in the market before making a purchasing decision.
