After revealing the exterior two months ago, Citroen Europe debuted the C3 Aircross in Euro specification. The India-spec vehicle and the European Citroen C3 Aircross have similar mechanical components, but their design languages are very dissimilar. As anticipated, the European version of the cabin has a drastically different layout from the India-spec model and many more features. It also has an electric drivetrain with a 300 km range promised.
Citroen C3 Aircross EV: Features
In terms of charging durations, a 7 kW AC charger can charge an electric SUV from 20 to 80 percent in 4 hours and 10 minutes. When using an 11 kW charger, this comes down to 2 hours and 50 minutes. The device may be fully charged for 20–80% of its capacity in about 26 minutes when using a 100 kW DC fast charger. Along with the 48-volt mild hybrid technology, the C3 Aircross is also equipped with a 1.2-liter three-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine and an electrified double-clutch automatic gearbox. The same 1.2-liter turbo-petrol engine is also available in a normal turbo-petrol version. Additionally, Citroen unveiled the first glimpse of the SUV’s minimalistic interior.
Additionally, Citroen unveiled the first glimpse of the SUV’s minimalistic interior. A 10.25-inch touchscreen entertainment system and a compact digital instrument console hidden below the steering wheel have replaced the uncluttered dashboard’s large, traditional instrument console. Like its Indian counterpart, the Citroen C3 Aircross for Europe will be offered in five- and seven-seater versions. With the rear seats folded, the SUV’s 460-liter boot becomes even larger. This is the variant of the SUV with five seats. The C3 family, which is new to the Indian market, is built on the highly localised CMP platform, which enables the brand to share many parts, powertrains, and other features among models.
