Citroen has unveiled its new C3 Picasso MPV, set to debut at the Paris Motor Show in October ahead of its UK launch in mid 2009.

Like the bigger C4 Picasso, it features a three part windscreen, panoramic glass roof and wrap around windows for extra visibility.

Interior features include independently sliding split folding rear seats which fold away level with the boot floor, and a passenger seat which folds flat for extra load length or to be used as a table top.

Two diesel and two petrol engines will be offered at launch, and trim details will be announced in the coming months.
