On a Swan Neck towbar, the towball is part of the neck of the towbar.

A swan neck towbar can look tidier on the vehicle because it is more compact and is less likely to set any reverse parking sensors off. We can not guarantee this as it is dependant on the bumper shape and location of the parking sensors. We would recommend the Detachable Swan Neck Towbar if your vehicle has parking sensors.



  • Tidy and compact
  • Compatible with ALKO Stabilisers
  • Fits most clamp-on Cycle Carriers
  • If your vehicle has parking sensors, it is likely the fixed swan neck Towbar will trigger the parking sensors. We would recommend a Detachable Towbar instead

More about Citroen C3 Picasso Towbars

Citroën C3 Picasso towbars are a smart upgrade for drivers who want to enhance the practicality of their compact MPV. The C3 Picasso is known for its spacious interior and efficient performance, and fitting a towbar adds even more everyday versatility. Whether you're towing a small trailer, hooking up a caravan, or fitting a bike rack for weekend adventures, a towbar makes your C3 Picasso ready for anything.

What’s the Towing Capacity for a Citroen C3 Picasso?

The Citroen C3 Picasso has an approximate towing capacity of 1,100kg. It is extremely important to be aware of the weight of what you are wanting to tow as overloading the towbar can result in damage to the vehicle or the towbar. The Vin Plate provides an accurate towing capacity for individual cars and can be found under the bonnet or on the passenger door sill.

Which Towbar is best for my Citroen C3 Picasso

The fixed flange towbar is an excellent option for those who do not wish to remove the Towbar after they have finished towing, although the chunkier design is known for causing some interference from the rear parking sensors. The fixed flange towbar is great for pairing with towing accessories such as bumper protector plates and bolt on cycle carriers. The accessories use the bolt on plate at the rear of the towbar meaning the driver is able to use the accessories at the same time as towing.

The fixed swan neck towbar has a thinner towbar neck to the fixed flange towbar and therefore is less likely to be detected by parking sensors; however, this is not guaranteed. This is a great option for those who prefer a sleeker-looking towbar but do not want to remove it after towing is completed. The fixed swan neck is compatible with all ALKO stabilisers and can be used with all cycle carriers that clamp on to the towball.

The detachable swan neck towbar is the perfect choice for those who want to protect their vehicle's aesthetic. Once towing is completed, the towbar neck can be removed, and the Towbar will appear practically invisible. The towbar neck is removed by unlocking the neck and using a twist and push action. The detachable towbar is also compatible with all ALKO stabilisers and all clamp on style cycle carriers.

Will my Citroen C3 Picasso need a bumper cut?

This car will need a bumper cut. The cut will be small and under the vehicle, so it will not be visible. The towbar engineer will remove the bumper, cut it to shape as per the fitting instructions.
