Citroen C3 Features

The Citroen hatchback is not exactly a feature-packed offering, but it covers many basic requirements. While it does not get comforts like auto AC, rear wiper and defogger or power-adjustable ORVMs, it does come with a class-leading 10-inch touchscreen infotainment system, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, digitised instrument cluster, height adjustable driver seat and fast chargers for the rear.

The C3’s appeal lies in its youthful and colourful design and it is offered with a host of customisation options and accessories. The Vibe pack is the most basic of these and it adds the distinctive orange surrounds to the exterior. In all, the car is available in a total of 10 exterior colour options, six of which are dual-tone options.

Citroen C3 Rivals

Despite its SUV-like styling, the C3 is more of a rugged hatchback without premium comforts. In terms of dimensions and engines, it seems like a rival to the likes of the Renault Kiger, Nissan Magnite, Maruti Baleno and Tata Altroz. However, in terms of the features and prices, the Citroen C3 is a larger alternative to the likes of the Tata Tiago, Maruti Wagon R and Celerio.

Citroen has already started deliveries for the C3 from its showrooms in 19 cities. It can also be bought directly from the factory by ordering it online.
