City cars: here are the star models of 2024!

This is the best-selling category in France, the favorite of the French: that of city dwellers! For years, these small accessible models are systematically among the best in the general ranking. In 2022, the Peugeot 208, Dacia Sandero and Renault Clio thus had the honors, followed by the Citroën C3, the Peugeot 2008 (derived from the 208) and the Renault Captur (derived from the Clio). The year 2024 will be marked by a number of new featuresand they will not only be French…

Dacia Sandero

Sales star with us, to the towns of Dacia will give birth next year to a brand new model. Its look will be more daring and more “adventurer” than the current generation of Sandero. She might be offered with hybrid enginelike its technical cousin Renault Clio.

Citroën C3

The new Citroën C3 will hit hard. Already on the stylistic level, since it will display the new gimmick of the Citroën models, underlined by a new logo. Above all, its electric version called ë-C3 should be accessible under €25,000, quite a challenge. It will keep its gasoline engines in parallel.

Renaullt 5 E-Tech

Long awaited, the Renault 5 E-Tech must replace the Zoé very soon, which has already been in the Renault catalog for eleven years! This neo-retro version of the historic R5 will be assembled in Douai in the North (59) and could also be accessible for under €25,000…

Mini Coopers

We already know it in an electric version, it will soon be available with a gasoline engine. La Minithe third of the name since its return in a neo-retro version in 2001, will have a facelift in 2024. Its thermal engines will include petrol and hybrid versions.

Jeep Avenger 4X4

It looks more like a crossover than a pure city car, but is also a model with very small dimensions. The Avenger, the first 100% electric Jeepwill be offered from next year in all-wheel drive version. Equipped with two motors (one per axle), it could offer up to 240 horsepower !

Nissan Micra

We still don’t know if the next generation of Micra will display a city car style like today, or more of a crossover type… It will be launched primarily with an electric engine, but perhaps also with gasoline, nothing having yet been confirmed for France. She should suggest the same batteries and engines as the next Renault 4 E-Tech electric.

Suzuki Swift

The little Swift from Suzuki will also be entitled to a new generation very soon. It should change everything stylistically, while retaining this clever mix of refinement and sportiness. Mechanically, it will retain its current gasoline units, and could introduce a full hybrid block borrowed from the Vitara and S-Cross, and developing 115 horsepower.
