Citroen C3 Aircross: Exterior
Talking about the exterior, the new SUV by Citroen will be similar to the C3 hatchback except for a few design improvements.

Additionally, the bumper now has additional body-colored accents in the centre. Right now, there is no official confirmation, but the carmaker could offer mono-tone and dual-tone paint schemes for the upcoming Citroen C3 Aircross. Alloy wheels, square-shaped taillights, and body cladding across the bottom panels are a few other exterior highlights.

Under the hood, the upcoming SUV could get a 1.2-litre three-cylinder, turbocharged PureTech petrol engine, similar to the standard C3. The unit is capable of putting out a maximum power of 108bhp and 190Nm of peak torque. For transmission, it uses a six-speed manual gearbox.
