Citroen secures 4 victories at BICSA Awards

Citroen picked up more awards than any other manufacturer at this year’s British Insurance Car Security Awards at Thatcham’s Motor Insurance Repair Research Centre. The Company won the vehicle security awards with four different models.

Citroen’s stylish C6 picked up the top spot in the Executive class for the second year in a row, as did the C4 Picasso Exclusive, clinching the Compact MPV accolade. The recently launched C5 Exclusive and popular C4 Exclusive dominated the family vehicle categories, taking both the Family and Small Family titles respectively.

Keeping occupants safe and secure, as well as thwarting smash and grab opportunists, the Company uses laminated glass on more models than any other manufacturer, further contributing to its BICSA wins. The glass and plastic sandwich construction enables windows to maintain their integrity, even after numerous blows.

Citroen’s success at this year’s event means the Company has now received an unprecedented fourteen security accolades since the British Insurance Car Security Awards were launched just five years ago.

Xavier Duchemin, managing director of Citroen UK Ltd, commented: “Our continuing success at these prestigious awards reaffirms that Citroen is a provider of some of the safest and most secure vehicles on the market today. We are dedicated to developing security technology so that our customers not only benefit from owning an award-winning, reassuringly secure vehicle, but also save money with ultra-low insurance ratings. We’re delighted with the performance of our newly launched C5, which is recognised as one of the most secure executive vehicles on the road.”
