The all-electric New ë-C3 has been named ‘Car of the Year’ at the 2024 Company Car & Van Awards. The Company Car & Van judges praised New ë-C3 for its EV range and affordable pricing. Ë-C3 is an accessible option for UK drivers looking to make the switch to electrification and will be offered in line with the brand’s ‘Fair Pricing’ policy, with the entry-level ‘YOU!’ version starting from under £23,000.

New ë-C3 marks the next chapter for the brand. It delivers best-in-class comfort, an easy electric experience, an outstanding level of useful equipment, and value for money. New ë-C3 is the first European-designed and European-built all-electric B-hatchback designed for customers wanting the benefit of zero-emission mobility at an affordable price.

Andrew Walker, Editor & Publisher, Company Car & Van, said: “For the first time ever we've selected a car that we've not yet driven as our Car of the Year. How can that possibly be I hear you cry.  Simple. It will cost just under £23,000, will offer a 199-mile electric range and comes with 100kW charging. If we are to get more people into an electric car, then New Citroën ë-C3 is the most compelling argument for an electric car yet. Our Car of the Year.”

New ë-C3 features a 44kWh battery pack providing up to 199 miles of WLTP range. Capable of a rapid charge from 20-80% in just 26 minutes thanks to 100kW DC rapid charging capability, New ë-C3 will be available with  a streamlined trim line up of ‘YOU!’, ‘PLUS’, and ‘MAX’ variants with an impressive level of standard equipment from launch. New ë-C3 benefits from Citroën’s Advanced Comfort Programme® including Citroën Advanced Comfort® Suspension, and Advanced Comfort® seats for enhanced onboard well-being. New ë-C3 also features the latest infotainment and safety technologies from Citroën, including Active Safety Brake, a new Citroën Head Up Display, ‘My Citroen Play with Smartphone Station’ for infotainment and Rear Parking Sensors.

Greg Taylor, Managing Director, Citroën UK, said: “We are delighted the New ë-C3 has been named ‘Car of the Year’ at the 2024 Company Car & Van Awards. Offering affordable mobility has always been at the heart of Citroën, and we are determined to make the transition to electric vehicles accessible to as many people as possible. New ë-C3 is a testament to this. It will offer drivers a comfortable, and extremely affordable EV option. I’m thrilled by the reaction for New ë-C3 already, and am looking forward to seeing drivers enjoying it on UK roads in 2024.”

New ë-C3 will be available at Citroën retailers later this year, with on-the-road prices starting from under £23,000 in the UK. For more details on New ë-C3, visit https://www.citroen.co.uk.
