The very first spy shots of the new Citroen c-Elysee testing in China, it will be made by the Dongfeng-PSA joint venture and replace the current c-Elysee that is based on the very first generation Citroen ZX. The new c-Elysee is identical to the new Peugeot 301, which will be made in China as well.

Engines for the Chinese market: 1.6 and 1.8 patrol, maybe a 1.6 turbo. Size: 4430mm/1700mm/1470mm, wheelbase is 2650. Price will be very low, comparable to the current c-Elysee which starts at 73.800 yuan and ends at 88.800 yuan. Both the Peugeot 301 and Citroen c-Elysee are expected to hit the Chinese car market next year, to compete head on with the new Volkswagen Jetta.

Cheap cars for the masses, PSA and Volkswagen still can do it, GM got one too. Ford, as usual, is considering things.
