Citroen Cruise Crosser (2007) CAR review

By James Foxall

Verdict

The big surprise with the Cruise Crosser is that fact that it’s the first SUV-derived pick-up truck to come from a European manufacturer, given the booming popularity of the class. That aside it’s a sensible attempt at making one. Admittedly the third row of wheels is a bit over the top but that shows that Citroen are serious about making a diesel hybrid 4x4 in the near future. Of course there are issues to resolve with it and the third row of chairs would probably be lost in a finished version but it’s a novel take on the leisure pick-up concept and despite its rather wacky appearance, a serious statement of intent from Citroen. Oddjob concept car or a sneak peak at a future Citroen model? Click 'Add Comment' below and tell us what you think...
