The Citroen C6 2017 model has a concave-shaped rear window, which frees itself from rain drops and dirt particles due to its curving inwards and the resultant higher pressure of the traveling vehicle on the glass surface.

The tire pressures are monitored by means of tire pressure sensors. The exterior mirrors flip open when the doors are locked and signalize that the doors are securely locked.
