After months of speculation and testing, Citroen has finally confirmed the launch of its second product for India in the form of the C3 hatchback. The French marque believes that this new mass-market model will help enhance its presence in the market. It is worth noting that the C3 is the first product under the brand’s C-Cubed Programme, which will also underpin a couple of its upcoming products.

Citroen C3: Launch Date

The Citroen C3 was revealed globally in September 2021 and now we have concrete information about the hatchback’s specifications and launch date. The four-wheeler will be introduced to the world on the 20th of July 2022 with bookings commencing from the 1st of July 2022. The vehicle will be manufactured at Citroen’s CK Birla facility in Thiruvallur near Chennai.

Citroen C3: Powertrain

A new set of information coming out from the company has confirmed that the hatchback will be available with a 1.2-litre turbo petrol engine producing a power output of 110 bhp and peak torque of 190 Nm and a 1.2 litre naturally aspirated petrol motor sufficient for 82 bhp and 115 Nm of torque. The former will be offered only on the higher trim levels mated to a 6-speed manual gearbox, while the latter will have to settle with a 5-speed unit. Trying to keep cost in check, the brand has decided to skip offering an automatic transmission with the vehicle. According to Citroen, both powertrains will offer similar mileage figures of 19.8 kmpl and 19.4 kmpl.
