Citroen has released all the information on the new C3 Aircross. The crossover is available with petrol, hybrid, and electric drives, and it's a lot of fun and reasonably priced. The base model's PureTech Turbo gasoline engine produces 101 horsepower.

It is paired with a six-speed manual gearbox, which meets Euro 7 specifications. For those concerned about the environment, there is a hybrid option with a 1.2-liter PureTech three-cylinder engine that produces 134 horsepower.

A 48V lithium-ion battery under the floor stores an integrated electric motor producing 28 horsepower (21 kW or 29 PS), paired with a dual-clutch gearbox. A 44-kWh lithium-ion-phosphate battery drives the electric variant's 111-horsepower engine. According to Citroen, this allows the crossover to reach a maximum speed of 90 mph and has a range of more than 186 miles.

A 100 kW DC fast charger can charge a battery with a low voltage of 20% to 80% in just 26 minutes. For the same outcome utilizing AC power at home, you may expect to spend anywhere from 2 hours and 50 minutes to 4 hours and 10 minutes. Some may find the electric vehicle unappealing, but Citroen has promised an additional version in 2025.

The carmaker only guaranteed a range of more than 249 miles. Featuring plastic body cladding and massive fenders, the crossover takes on a more aggressive appearance, which isn't just marketing jargon. The new model is much longer than the old one, measuring 172.8 inches in length with a wheelbase that is 105.1 inches wide. Finally, the Citroen C3 Aircross's ground clearance has increased to nearly 7.9 inches.

Citroen omitted some details, but owners can anticipate LED headlights and wheels with a diameter of either 16 or 17 inches. Also, customers have the option to customize the front and back clips and new, enormous logos. Meanwhile, the cabin is available in both five- and seven-seat configurations and has a simple appearance. In terms of the latter, Citroen Advanced Comfort seats with an additional 0.4 to 0.6 inches of cushion are now standard on the model.

Little digital gauges, a two-spoke steering wheel, and an infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay measuring 10.25 inches are among the other notable features. The vehicle also comes with a 15-watt wireless charger for smartphones. With features like Driver Alert, Active Lane Keeping Assist, and Active Safety Brake, safety is paramount.

They complement each other with a rearview camera, front and rear parking sensors, high beam assistance, blind spot detection, speed sign recognition, and more. In France, you can get the Citroen C3 Aircross  for as little as €19,400 for the petrol-powered version. Electric vehicles start at €27,400, and hybrids cost €25,500.
