Citroen C3 launched in India, prices start from Rs 5.71 lakh

The Citroen C3 is finally launched in India and prices start from Rs 5.71 lakh for the Live variant and rise up all the way to Rs 8.05 lakh for the Vibe  Pack variant.

The Citroen C3 is available in 2 engine options. These include a 1.2-litre naturally-aspirated petrol motor expected to put out 82PS and 118 Nm. Higher variants will get a 1.2-litre turbo-petrol that makes 110PS and 205 Nm.

The engines are paired with either a 5-speed or a 6-speed manual transmission. Citroen claims that the 1.2-litre naturally aspirated engine will return 19.8 kmpl, while the turbocharged engine will return 19.4 kmpl.

The interiors of the Citroen C3 carries on with the brand's geometric design theme, with the tubular central panel in contrasting colour, a layered shelf below it and the C5 Aircross-inspired split AC vents. The squarish steering wheel with controls is seen here too but the highlight is the 10-inch widescreen touchscreen with Android Auto/Apple Carplay.

Practicality was focused on heavily with touches like the phone mount, numerous cubbies and class-leading elbow, knee and headroom. Boot space is 315L. Other features include LED DRLS, digital instrumentation and numerous customisation options.

The Citroen C3 does take plenty of its styling cues from its sibling, the Citroen C5 but in a smaller package. The divided DRLs and headlamps, the boxy silhouette and the up rear end speaks volumes of Citroen's design language.

Priced between Rs 5.70 lakh and Rs 8.05 lakh, the Citroen C3 faces fierce competition from the likes of the Tata Punch, Renault Kiger and Nissan Magnite.
