Expected to make its debut in mid-2024, Citroen India is in the process of developing the C3X, a crossover based on the C3 Aircross platform. Recent spy shots have revealed the interior design of the upcoming C3X showcasing a cabin reminiscent of the C3-Aircross model.
In terms of aesthetics, the C3X draws inspiration from its sibling, the C3 Aircross SUV. The front end is expected to feature a recognizable split LED headlamp configuration, fog lamps integrated into the bumper, and a broad grille. Notable exterior elements include flip-style door handles, externally mounted ORVMs (Outside Rear View Mirrors), and stylish wraparound LED taillights.
Turning attention to the interior, the C3X crossover is set to adopt the dashboard layout from the C3 Aircross, providing a sense of continuity in design. The cabin will be well-appointed with features such as a prominent floating infotainment system, a digital instrument cluster, automatic climate control for enhanced comfort, steering-mounted controls for convenience, cruise control, a manual interior rearview mirror (IRVM), and white seat upholstery for a touch of sophistication.
As of now, specific details regarding the powertrain of the forthcoming C3X remain undisclosed. Industry forecasts, however, indicate that a six-speed manual transmission and a 1.2-liter turbo-petrol engine will be used. There are also rumors that an automatic torque converter unit with a combination of functionality and user-friendliness will be made available.
Anticipated to make its debut in the Indian market in the middle of 2024, the Citroen C3X aims to carve a niche for itself in the crossover segment and this vehicle aims to provide consumers with a compelling option in the competitive automotive market drawing inspiration from the well-liked C3 Aircross for its design language and well-equipped interior. As the development progresses more details about the C3X including its powertrain specifications are likely to emerge, creating heightened anticipation among potential buyers and automotive enthusiasts alike.
