Citroen have revealed the Basalt Vision ahead of its launch, which is slated for the end of 2024. The Basalt Vision coupe SUV is a C-segment offering that will rival the upcoming Tata Curvv petrol and diesel. The Citroen Basalt Vision is the brand’s final model under the Citroen C-Cubed program and shares many styling bits with the C3 range of SUVs that are currently on sale in India.
Citroen Basalt Vision Exterior Design
The latest Citroen Basalt Vision coupe SUV features a front fascia inspired by Citroen models like the C3 and C3 Aircross. Hence, it shares design elements like the split headlamp housing and split chrome grille as the other Citroen models. However, the standout element of the Basalt Vision is its sloping roofline and stubby tail section with a high boot lid that give it the coupe SUV tag.
A high ground clearance, squared wheel arches and side body cladding give the Basalt Vision a rugged design and these elements are complemented by dual-tone alloy wheels that look 16-inches in size.
Citroen Basalt Vision Interior And Features.
While Citroen haven’t revealed the interior of the Basalt Vision, we expect it to share design elements with the C3 Aircross C-segment SUV. So expect it to offer features like a 10.2-inch touchscreen infotainment system and a 7-inch digital driver’s display. Citroen are likely to position the Basalt Vision coupe SUV above the C3 Aircross. Hence, we could expect some additional premium features like cruise control, push button start-stop system, keyless entry and more.
In terms of safety, the Citroen coupe SUV is likely to offer 6 airbags, tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), and electronic stability control (ESC) as standard.

Expected Powertrain Options
Citroen are yet to reveal the powertrain options for the Basalt Vision coupe SUV. That said, it is likely to use the same 1.2-litre turbo petrol engine as the C3 Aircross and C3 SUVs. The 1.2-litre turbo petrol engine produces 110PS of power and 205Nm of torque and is offered with either a 6-speed manual transmission or a 6-speed torque converter automatic transmission in the C3 Aircross.
Launch And Rivals
The Citroen Basalt Vision is expected to go on sale in India in the second half of 2024. When launched, the Citroen coupe SUV will rival the likes of the Tata Curvv as well as conventional C-segment SUVs like the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara, Volkswagen Taigun, and Skoda Kushaq, among others.
