Midrand, 29 November 2024 – Citroën South Africa is proud to unveil the new C3, now featuring advanced safety and comfort upgrades, along with a newly available high-performance six-speed automatic transmission.

The new C3 brings a host of upgrades that elevate both driving comfort and safety. Select trims now feature automatic air conditioning, auto-folding rear-view mirrors, and foldable roof grab handles for passengers. Addition, LED Vision projector headlamps and indicators integrated into the mirrors further enhance the vehicle's design and functionality.

Safety has also been a major focus in this update. The new C3 comes equipped with six airbags, three-point seatbelts, ISOFIX seat anchors, ABS and EBD across the range.  In addition, the new 6-speed automatic also features Electronic Stability Programme (ESP).

For the first time, the C3 will now be available with a six-speed automatic transmission mated to Citroën's proven 1,2-litre Turbocharged PureTech engine delivering 81kW and 205Nm of torque from only 1750 rpm. This combination ensures a confident and smooth driving experience, perfect for both city commutes and longer journeys.

The Citroën C3 retains its key attributes that make it a standout in its segment. It continues to offer a spacious interior with a 2,540mm wheelbase and Citroën's renowned Advanced Comfort suspension system that provides the brand's signature "Flying Carpet Effect" for an exceptionally smooth ride.

The 10-inch infotainment system with wireless Android Auto^TM and Apple CarPlay® connectivity remains a highlight, providing drivers and passenger with seamless digital integration. Other features such as dual-split LED DRLs, a compact 360mm steering wheel for improved manoeuvrability, along with intelligent storage all add to the car's practicality and style.

The new C3 offers a wide range of customisation options, allowing customers to personalise their vehicle to suit their individual tastes. Metallic paint and a stylish dual-tone roof come at no extra charge.

To further enhance its value and offer, the C3 comes with a 2-year/30,000 km service plan and a 5-years/100,000km warranty providing customers with long-term peace of mind.

The Citroën C3 was recently recognised as the Biggest Achiever of the Year in passenger car sales by naamsa’s Accelerator Awards. The C3 has enjoyed a fantastic market reception with one of the country’s fastest sales growth rates. One of the reasons for Citroën’s success with the model has been its incredible value proposition in the segment.

Look out for the new Citroën C3 at your dealership of choice.
