If Citroen bring this C3 in India then it would be the no 1 player by year end. But they never do, and hence Citroen will be exiting India inside 3 years.😅
well... you can check in one of the C4 III models.... they have the same seats, and they've been driving around since 2020....I bet you can find a bunch of them with that mileage on the odo. or, even easier, with facelifted C4 Cactus, which was the first model fitted with this kind of seats
@@pillazamindar8107 Yes. It would be too costly for Indian audience but design could be matched. Design is also one of the reasons that Indian buy cars, apart from mileage.
This would be too expensive for the Market and it’s class, for Example Dacia Duster (Renault in India) in most European countries it’s considered to be cheap alternative of a crossover, in India it’s an average car
Hey! This review starts with with petrol-powered C3, not the e-C3. So our comparison to the Puma refers to that. Feedback's always appreciated, so can we ask why you don't you think this crossover is comparable to the similarly-sized Puma?
@@cinch Because the Puma is 20cm longer, 5cm wider and has 146 liters of extra boot space. The C3 is tall because of the batteries that have to fit at the bottom of the electric version. That doesn't mean it has more space inside than before. It's just lifted. Its height doesn't mean anything. It's only slightly longer than before, but LESS wide. It has the same footprint as the previous C3.
It's quite a large surface area and presents all of the relevant information and controls well even if it means having a square Android Auto/Apple CarPlay screen in the middle. It's what a lot of infotainment systems lack especially when they've included heater controls into the display /Jamil
The exterior is giving Jeep Renegade but in a good way. Big thumbs up for the pillowy ride!
I agree, Ben! Good on Citroen for rediscovering what it’s good at.

I wonder why they don't sell it in India? It's sad to see Citroen exiting Australia too

For what price?
@@ksisneh come on.. There is nothing special in this too.. Suzuki is giving cars with much better features
The car looks beautiful from the outside 😊
It certainly looks unique

Agree the hybrid might be the pick of the range. Question…. What would the padding on those seats be like after 60k miles?
Good question! All we can say is the cushions felt nice and springy, rather than weak. More memory foam than cheap mattress. Which bodes well!

From outside, similiar design to VW t-cross..
Toyota Yaris cross is better choice..
Is it true it has a 160km/h integrated electronic speed limiter?
We weren't able to test this out in rural Austria but I'm sure 160km/h is plenty for this car and its intended customers
/Jamil
@@cinch And one last question
Does it have an indication for RPMs in the digital cockpit? I see only a speedometer..
With bigger wheels it would look even better
It really has the CAC hydraulic suspension? I thought only the c3 aircross 2024 has it, but also the normal c3 2024 ?!
Yep! They’ve really focused on comfort and beating the rivals
The back reminds me of ecosport? Ford am I wrong or the side.
Why no center armrest?? lol
No armrest and no grip handles. Weird choice and a deal braker for me
Why do we have a completely different C3 in India?
Indian Taxation

The room in boot looks the same C4 cactus
You lost me in the first 30 seconds because you somehow think that the Ford Puma is a competitor to this Citroën ë-C3.

The c3 they sell in India is a joke
If I can have it without the white interior and door bins sign me up
It looks like a chinese copy...

this car is very blah looking. No interest for me whatsoever.
