The French automaker, Citroen has taken the veils off its upcoming car, Citroen C3. This will be the first car from Citroen to be produced in India and South America and replace the current generation Citroen C3 crossover overseas. Since the Citroen C5 Aircross that was launched earlier this year has earned considerable popularity, let’s look into what the Citroen C3 is bringing.

Citroen C3 Exteriors

The CEO of Citroen, Vincent Cobee has referred to the model as “hatchback with a twist”. The front fascia looks like Citroen C5 Aircross in which a sleek double-slat grill that incorporates the Citroen logo links the split-headlamps and beautifully merges into LED DRLs.

Along with black pillars and roof rails,coloured roof and accents on the front bumper are giving the SUV a unique touch. The side profile reflects a sleek design accompanied by dual-tone diamond-cut alloy wheels.

As the car will be manufactured locally with more than 90% of localisation, it will be as affordable as it possibly can.

The cabin is delightfully unique. A bright coloured panel goes the length of the dashboard with some dimpled impressions and complex-looking AC vents. A 10-inch touchscreen infotainment system sporting Android Auto and Apple CarPlay takes the centre position with an integrated smartphone holder beside the screen. While a stumpy three-spoke steering and a digital instrument cluster are signalling the prominence, internally adjusted side mirrors, manual AC controls, and single-piece front seat with mounted headrest reflect how this magnificence is kept affordable. The buttons for the rear power window are positioned in the central console between the front seats. Two large headrests of the rear seat imply it’s been designed for two occupants.
