Citroen BX Engines and Transmissions

The Citroen BX engine lineup spans petrol and diesel choices to match different needs. A 1.9 petrol with manual transmission can power an Estate with all-wheel drive, while a 1.8 diesel in an Estate and a 1.6 diesel in a Hatchback both use front-wheel drive for everyday efficiency.
