CITROEN has released first details of the new C3, a completely redesigned successor to the popular supermini.
Arriving in the UK early in 2010, the new C3 gets a sportier edge, with a tauter profile that gives the car a more dynamic, yet robust appearance. As this early pic shows, the C3 is now cut much more aggressively.
Nowhere is the modern styling more apparent than in the design of the new C3’s Zenith windscreen, which flows up and over the heads of the front occupants. Citroen say the cabin materials are a big improvement on the current incumbent, and has more space.
From launch, an HDi 90 powered version will be available emitting just 99g/km CO2 – the first full production Citroën to emit less than 100g/km.
Second-generation Stop & Start technology, will see diesel versions emitting as little as 90g/km CO2, to be followed by new generation three-cylinder petrol engines with less than 100g/km CO2.
The new C3 can be well connected with USB, iPod and Bluetooth® functionality, as well as offering Citroën’s ‘MyWay’ satellite navigation and Hifi System®.
