INDIA: Citroen has officially launched the C3 Aircross in the Indian market, bringing a fresh wave of innovation and style to the compact SUV segment. With prices starting at an enticing Rs. 9.99 lakh (ex-showroom), the C3 Aircross is set to carve a niche for itself among discerning Indian car enthusiasts.
The C3 Aircross lineup in India consists of three variants, each offering a distinct combination of features to cater to a wide range of preferences. Let’s delve into the details of each variant and explore which one might be your ideal pick.
This entry-level variant is tailored for those seeking the basics and is available exclusively in the five-seat layout. While it may forgo some comfort features and design elements, it doesn’t compromise on safety.
Dual front airbags, ABS with EBD, TPMS, reverse parking sensors, and a hill hold function come standard across the range, ensuring peace of mind on every journey.
Stepping up to the mid-level Plus variant, you unlock a host of additional features. Boasting a 10.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, four speakers, a connected car app, shark fin antenna, rear wiper, and front fog lamps, this variant delivers a heightened driving experience.
For those seeking the pinnacle of luxury and convenience, the top-spec variant is the crown jewel of the C3 Aircross lineup. With enhancements like an armrest for the second row (five-seat version only), alloy wheels, tweeters, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, a rearview camera, and a leatherette door armrest, this variant caters to the most discerning tastes.
Additional options, such as a seven-seat layout, a dual-tone paint scheme, and the vibe accessory pack, offer further customization possibilities. Powering the C3 Aircross is Citroen’s robust 1.2-litre turbo-petrol engine, generating an impressive 108 bhp/190 Nm.
While currently available with a six-speed manual transmission, an automatic variant is slated to hit the Indian market in 2024, adding an extra layer of versatility to this remarkable compact SUV.
