This will be the brand\u2019s second product on Indian soil, with the first one being the Citro\u00ebn C5 Aircross.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 3.98 meter C3 is best classified as a cross-hatchback, with appealing exteriors that include high ground clearance, a lofty bonnet, and an elevated driving position. The 2022 Citro\u00ebn C3 has the signature double slat grille at the front along with a pair of split-LED headlamps. The logo is skillfully incorporated in the grille making it seamless as it melds with the LED Daytime Running Lamps in the headlamp cluster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228142011\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-94-4-1160x653.jpg\" alt=\"Citroen C3\" class=\"wp-image-452861\" srcset=\"https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228142011\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-94-4-1160x653.jpg 1160w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228142011\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-94-4-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228142011\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-94-4-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228142011\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-94-4-100x56.jpg 100w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228142011\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-94-4-834x469.jpg 834w, https:\/\/spn-sta.spinny.com\/blog\/20220228142011\/ezgif.com-gif-maker-94-4.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1160px) 100vw, 1160px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Citro\u00ebn C3 cabin space features are yet to be disclosed, however, it is anticipated that its interiors would feature a 3-spoke steering wheel with mounted controls and a large infotainment display.

Citro\u00ebn C3 is built on the CMP modular platform which is perfectly made for Indian roads. More than 90 percent of components are locally sourced from India, making it cost-efficient.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Citro\u00ebn plans on targeting a more affordable market segment for its second car in India. The Citro\u00ebn C3 is expected to be priced competitively against the Renault Kwid, Maruti Suzuki Celerio, Maruti Suzuki Ignis, and the Tata Punch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The French automaker is all set to expand its portfolio and has confirmed the launch of the Citro\u00ebn C3 in [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":51,"featured_media":452865,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"cos_headline_score":0,"cos_seo_score":0,"cos_headline_text":"Citro\u00ebn C3 to Hit the Indian Market by First Half of 2022","cos_headline_has_been_analyzed":false,"cos_last_analyzed_headline":[],"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"set","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"_mbp_gutenberg_autopost":false,"_pgmb_is_evergreen":false,"_pgmb_ap_template_id":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[1446,1053,914,385,5097],"class_list":["post-500131","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-citroen-c3","tag-compact-suv","tag-crossover","tag-hatchback","tag-new-car-launch"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.spinny.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/500131","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.spinny.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.spinny.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.spinny.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/51"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.spinny.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=500131"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.spinny.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/500131\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":521490,"href":"https:\/\/www.spinny.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/500131\/revisions\/521490"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.spinny.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/452865"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.spinny.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=500131"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.spinny.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=500131"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.spinny.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=500131"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
