BOLD PACKAGING FOR VERSATILITY
Key to the success of Citroën’s C-Cubed programme is the collaborative effort between regional Citroën teams and the company’s designers and engineers. Specifically for New C3 Aircross SUV, this involved thorough research into the physical conditions of the intended markets, and extensive conversations with customers to ensure it fully meets their wants and needs. The New C3 Aircross SUV manufactured in India was developed for warm climates and harsh roads and was tested extensively in South Africa to ensure it meets local driving conditions.
The result is a unique package families will appreciate, combining distinctive signature Citroën brand design markers with pure SUV attributes in a muscular and eye-catching vehicle that represents great value. It fully embraces comfort and well-being for everyone through outstanding spaciousness, modular versatility and space to carry up to five or seven people in serenity. It comes with high levels of equipment and technology, including seamless connectivity on the move.
SAFE AND FUN TO DRIVE
Citroën’s passion to ensure drivers and occupants enjoy unrivalled safety and on-board comfort is evident in every detail of the New C3 Aircross SUV; the spacious cabin benefits from tuned suspension that maximises comfort and minimises body roll in over varying road surfaces. The Citroën-tuned steering and turning circle provide enhanced agility and easy manoeuvring in urban traffic conditions. Even the underbody structure and approach angles have been engineered to ensure that New C3 Aircross SUV can tackle rough and uneven road surfaces with ease. Standard safety specification includes front airbags, ABS, EBD, Electronic Stability Program (ESP) on the turbocharged versions, tyre pressure monitoring system, hill-hold assist, rearview camera and PDC.
SPACIOUS, COMFORTABLE, AND VERSATILE WITH LOADS OF FEATURES
New C3 Aircross SUV is particularly roomy. The five-seat version offers generous kneeroom for rear seat passengers and a 444-litre boot makes sure nothing gets left behind. The seven-seater version adds intelligent modularity for multiple uses, including a third row of two individual seats. These can be folded down or removed individually when the family needs to balance room for passengers with up to 511 litres of boot capacity.
Supremely comfortable seats combined with a powerful air-conditioner makes long journeys a breeze. In the seven-seat version, a unique ventilation module mounted into the roof panel ensures all passengers are comfortable on those hot South African summer days. Thoughtful storage solutions throughout include cup holders that double as smartphone holders and USB ports.
Up front, the eye-catching instrument panel features a unique soft-touch grain across the middle. The New C3 Aircross SUV comes with a seven-inch TFT (colour thin-film transistor) cluster and a 10-inch touchscreen – among the largest in this class – sits centrally and provides access to key infotainment and connected services, including mirroring capability for access to apps using Apple CarPlay™ or Android Auto.
Whether navigating city streets or exploring the great outdoors, this compact SUV combines style and comfort like no other. Embrace the journey ahead and make every drive an experience to remember!
