French automaker Citroen has officially revealed the 2024 eC3 compact electric SUV for the European market. While it shares its name and the platform with the Indian eC3, it is a different model with unique styling and powertrain.

The eC3 front end features sharp headlights, twin horizontal slat grille, Citroen’s new logo, and a chunky and sculpted bumper with a faux skid plate. The side profile gets slightly flared wheel arches, character lines around the headlights and taillights, 17-inch alloy wheels, and new pull-handle doors. At the rear, the eC3 gets unique LED tail lights, sculpted bootlid, and a faux skid plate on the bumper.

Its two-layer dashboard features a 10.25-inch infotainment system, digital instrument cluster, flat-bottomed steering wheel, and a HUD. Other key features include wireless phone charging, heated and auto-folding ORVMs, and auto climate control.

While the Euro-spec eC3 is underpinned by the same CC21 platform as the Indian-spec model, it features more reinforcements for a stronger crash structure. The battery pack shape has been shaped as well, going from a T-shape to a square to improve capacity over the Indian model.

The eC3 for Europe will use a 44 kWh battery pack that powers a single, front-axle-mounted electric motor that makes 111 bhp of peak power. Citroen claims the electric hatchback has a range of 320 kms on a single charge. Meanwhile, an entry-level variant with a smaller battery pack will offer around 200 km of range.

Citroen eC3 Euro-Spec: Launch

Citroen is expected to introduce the eC3 in Europe by late 2023 to early-2024. It will become one of the continent’s most affordable pure electric hatchbacks upon launch.
