The new Citroën C3 Aircross promises to be one of the smallest and most affordable seven-seaters available. Based on Stellantis's new Smart Car architecture, it will be offered with petrol, mild-hybrid, and fully electric powertrains. The petrol option uses a 1.2-litre turbocharged engine, while the mild-hybrid adds a 48V system and a dual-clutch automatic gearbox. The electric variant boasts a 44kWh battery and a claimed range of 186 miles. The C3 Aircross features a spacious interior with comfort prioritized, a head-up display, and a 10.25-inch infotainment touchscreen.
The new Citroën C3 Aircross is set to be one of the smallest and cheapest seven-seaters when it lands later this year. At 4.39m long, it is significantly shorter than the Dacia Jogger , Citroën ë-Berlingo XL and Land Rover Discovery Sport . The new model makes the switch from the PFA1 platform, which dates back to the Peugeot 206, to Stellantis’s new affordability-focused Smart Car architecture.
Both the petrol and the mild hybrid are available with five or seven seats, whereas the range-topping EV is available only with five. It uses the same electric powertrain as the smaller ë-C3, with a 111bhp motor on the front wheels and a 44kWh lithium-iron-phosphate battery pack. It is claimed to allow 186 miles of driving between recharges, down 17 miles compared with the ë-C3. A larger battery will become available next year, boosting range to more than 250 miles.
