Citroen C3 Features List - Variant-Wise Distribution Revealed | V3Cars

Citroen have revealed the complete feature list of the C3 hatchback. With it, they have also revealed the variant-wise features distribution of the C3. Citroen will pitch the C3 as a hatchback with SUV-like styling. It is likely to focus more on performance and styling rather than a long feature list.

Citroen C3

For starters, the C3 will get 2 variants, namely Live and Feel. The Live will be the entry level variant while the Feel will be the top-spec variant. The Live variant will only get the option of a 1.2L normal petrol engine with 5-speed manual transmission. In addition to the former engine, the Feel variant will also get the option of a 1.2L turbo petrol engine with a 6-speed manual transmission. We will discuss more about the powertrain later.

We expect Citroen to add an automatic transmission at a later date.
