Citroen C3 Prices Start at Rs 5.71 Lakh

The hatchback competes directly with the Wagon R and Celerio but is significantly larger. However, because to its size and engine configuration, it is also a viable option for Baleno and Magnate.

The fog lamp kit, body side Moulding, orange surrounds for the rear reflectors, and orange surrounds for the fog lamps are all included in the Vibe Pack. For an extra fee, you can combine this pack with the accessory packs for convenience and energy.
Mud flaps, a floor mat, a seat belt cover, a leather steering wheel cover, a boot mat, sun shades for every window (including the rear windshield), a seat cushion, and neck pillows are all included in the convenience pack. A rear roof spoiler, front and back skid plates, door visors, and wheel arch protection are all included in the Energy pack.

Citroen C3 Engine Specifications

You have a 1.2-litre naturally aspirated and turbo-petrol option. Citroen isn’t offering an automatic gearbox with the C3 just yet, which feels like a big miss. All the cars in this price range get the convenience of an automatic. 

Citroen C3 Dimensions

The C3 is 3.98 meters long and has a wheelbase of 2540mm. It’s sized similarly to the premium hatchbacks like the Maruti Baleno and subcompact SUVs like Nissan Magnate and Renault Kiger.

The Competition

There are numerous rivals for the Citroen C3. It competes directly with the Maruti Wagon R, Celerio, Swift, Tata Tiago, and Hyundai Grand i10 Nio’s in terms of pricing. It is a bigger alternative to these vehicles and, thanks to the turbo engine, it is also a more potent one.
But in terms of dimensions and engine specs, it competes with premium hatchbacks like the Maruti Baleno, Hyundai i20, Tata Altro, Honda Jazz, and Toyota Glaza as well as the Nissan Magnate, Renault Kiger, and Tata Punch. In essence, you may think of it as a less feature-rich but more economical alternative to high-end hatchbacks.

A typical vehicle warranty from Citroen lasts for two years or 40,000 miles, whichever comes first. Twenty La Maison Citroen dealerships spread over 19 cities will offer it for sale. The C3 can also be ordered by clients and supplied directly from the factory.
