Citroen has taken a bold step in the compact SUV market with the introduction of the new C3 Aircross. This redesigned model shares the Smart Car platform with the recent C3, allowing for an attractive price point. The new C3 Aircross features a modern design inside and out, offering a sense of safety and robustness while maintaining a sleek and stylish appearance.
The 5-seater version of the C3 Aircross boasts the best interior space in its segment in row 2, while Citroen is also introducing a 7-seater option for the first time in this segment. This new model offers flexibility and maneuverability without sacrificing space and comfort.
Comfort and practicality are key priorities for Citroen, and the all-new C3 Aircross delivers on both fronts. With features like the C-Zen-Lounge® concept, Head-Up Display, and Citroen Advanced Comfort seats, drivers can expect a smooth and enjoyable driving experience. The adoption of Citroen Advanced Comfort® suspension further enhances ride comfort, making long drives a breeze.
In a groundbreaking move, Citroen is offering an electric version of the C3 Aircross in the family B-SUV segment. This electric model is powered by an 83 kW/113 bhp engine paired with a 44 kWh LFP battery, providing a range of over 300km. The electric version offers linear acceleration, immediate torque, and a top speed of 145 km/h, making it suitable for everyday driving.
Recharging the all-electric C3 Aircross is convenient and efficient, thanks to the Mode 3 cable included as standard. Standard AC charging from 20% to 80% takes around 4 hours 10 minutes with 7 kW of power, or 2 hours 50 minutes with 11 kW of power. Fast charging with DC 100 kW chargers only takes 26 minutes to reach 80% charge. Additionally, a version with an extended range battery will be available in 2025, offering over 400km of driving range.
To address concerns about transitioning to electric vehicles, Citroen has developed the e-ROUTES application for its electric vehicles. This app helps users plan their journeys, monitor battery levels, and find the best recharging stops along the way. By staying connected to the vehicle’s data and traffic information, the app optimizes route management for a seamless driving experience.
The new Citroen C3 Aircross Electric is set to revolutionize the compact SUV market with its cutting-edge design, electric powertrain, and advanced technology. With a focus on comfort, flexibility, and sustainability, this model is poised to make a lasting impact on the automotive industry.
