As it’s based on Citroen’s range-topping ‘Shine’ trim level, the C1 Urban Ride also comes with a reversing camera, electrically adjustable and heated door mirrors, a four-speaker stereo and a seven-inch infotainment system with support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

The only engine available for the C1 Urban Ride is Citroen’s 1.0-litre three-cylinder petrol unit, with 70bhp and 93Nm of torque. It feeds its power to the front wheels via a five-speed manual gearbox, offering a 0-62mph time of 12.6 seconds, claimed economy figures of 53.2mpg and CO2 emissions of 93g/km.
