Citroen C3

The Citroen C3 Sport Edition incorporates bold 'Sport' decals along with a brand-new striking paint finish – Garnet Red, lending the model its sporty character.

The CNG kit is sold exclusively through Citroen’s authorised dealership network and includes a 3-year or 1 lakh km warranty, covering all associated components.

Citroën India has launched Dark Edition variants of the C3, Aircross, and the newly introduced Basalt SUV Coupe, with prices starting from ₹8.38 lakh (ex-showroom). But that’s not all — Citroën has also updated the standard variants of all three models with added features and design tweaks.

The Dark Edition range (Basalt, C3, Aircross) keeps the same powertrains as the standard models, offering a 1.2-litre NA engine (81bhp, 115Nm) or a 1.2-litre turbo unit (108bhp, 205Nm).

With the new Black Editions, Citroen hopes to strengthen its foothold in the Indian market by offering more distinctive and stylish options to customers.

Citroen sells four ICE-powered models in India: C3 (Rs 6.16 lakh), Aircross (Rs 8.49 lakh), C5 Aircross (Rs 39.99 lakh), and the recently launched Basalt (Rs 8.25 lakh). Prices are ex-showroom. 

Citroen has introduced automatic transmission variants of the C3 hatchback in India, starting at Rs 10 lakh (ex-showroom). In terms of market rivalry, the Citroen C3 AT competes directly with the automatic variants of the Hyundai Grand i10 Nios, Maruti Suzuki Swift, and the Tata Punch. 

As part of updates for 2024, the Citroen C3 now offers an option of a 6-speed automatic gearbox, which is paired with a 1.2-litre turbo-petrol engine.

The pricing of the updated Citroen C3 and C3 Aircross is yet to be announced. The former is currently from Rs 6.16 lakh to Rs 9 lakh, while the latter falls between Rs 9.99 lakh and Rs 14.11 lakh. The prices are ex-showroom.

The production-spec Citroen Basalt Coupe SUV is expected to employ the same 1.2-litre turbo-petrol motor that powers the C3 and C3 Aircross.
