Citroën has announced plans to offer WiFi internet connectivity on the C3, C3 Picasso, C4, C4 Picasso, C5, C6 and DS3.

Priced from £545 (including installation and a VAT of 17.5%), the 'WiFi On Board' system creates a wireless network in the vehicle. To do this, users install a 3G or 3G+ SIM card (which is available from all major internet / cell phone providers) and turn the device on.

While everything seems simple enough, Citroën decided to make the system unique by adding a roaming override function. When traveling, the device can deactivate itself - when roaming - to prevent users from racking up excessive data charges.
