Citroen India raises the curtains to reveal for the first time a special version of the very popular C3 hatchback in the form of the C3 Dark Edition which comes bearing a very minimalist price of ₹8.38 lakh (ex-showroom).
The new trim talks big in terms of fresh aesthetics, with fuel adaptability incorporated for the first time and proving the modern design ethos for Citroen’s future technology. In arsenals, the C3 Dark Edition gets ready for E20 combustibles while embracing the dark-themed esthetics making the very base of the Indian market a bit more striking in its appeal.
Striking New Look with Dark-Themed Enhancements
Just as the name implies, the Citroen C3 Dark Edition essentially deals with a dark theme that expresses the most premium and aggressive look characteristics. Some highlights of these exterior updates comprise gloss black strips accentuating the grille, alloy wheels, ORVMs, and roof. The trademark Citroen logo just gets a dark theme treatment. The dash is all in black, matching the upholstery, with grey stitching and chrome touches here and there to create an exclusive sophisticated ambiance.
Now Compatible With E20 Fuel
One of the key features in this head-turning model has been Citroen’s promotion of the fact that it will allow this version of the C3 will be completely capable of running on E20 fuel, a blend consisting of 20% ethanol and 80% petrol with other improvements like reduced petrol consumption, guiding the country away towards its push to fuel comparability based on ethanol commitment to sustainability.
While maintaining a similar balance of performance and efficiency even with this fuel comparability change, it proves how well the engine setting with respect to drivingability has been executed that also takes account of fuel consumption.
Feature Upgrades and Practical Tech
The Dark Edition of the C3 offers an upgradation of all the features present in the top-spec model, such as a 10.2-inch infotainment touch screen compatible with Android and Apple CarPlay, steering wheel-mounted controls, power-adjustable mirrors, and dual front airbags. While not a great driver, it is still cost-effective for what one gets. It conspicuously lacks elements like climate controls or a sweet sunroof.
A Stylish, Practical Choice for Urban Buyers
The Citroen C3 Dark Edition finds favour with class lovers as it merges style, contemporary fuel structuring, and abundant practicality, all priced ultra-competitively at ₹8.38 lakh. This could be a great option for city car buyers on a budget due to its in-yer-face styling, future-oriented technology, and remarkable design.
