re: Citroen C3 budget crossover for India

This mini-SUV seems to be the size of KUV100. Is that their target market? With all the number the CSUV's are doing i was of the impression that Citroen would also like to take a bite of this pie

re: Citroen C3 budget crossover for India

Wow - this is a really small size car. I assume it’ll go head on in the Ecosport and not higher than that. From whatever little conjecture I’ve read on the C5 I wonder if they’ll try to punch a hint over the Sonet / Venue on price.

This seems to be a KWID rival in Argentina:

clear the strategy of turning the compact hatch into a compact SUV – or almost that. Exactly the same proposal adopted by Renault Kwid.

The similarities don't stop there. Just like Renault's entry car, the so-called CC21 project has been played in parallel with India

Citroen Sub-4 Metre SUV:

the sub-4 metre SUV could be underpinned by CMP -- Peugeot-Citroen’s smallest modular platform

for compact models. While this platform supports both 1.2-litre turbo-petrol and 1.5-litre diesel engines, the French carmaker has only gone with the former in the upcoming model. Also, while this test mule confirms a 5-speed manual, there should be an optional automatic as well.

Citroen CC21 crossover to be unveiled on May 20

Citroen kicked off its India operations with the launch of the C5 Aircross earlier this month. The French carmaker's second offering will be a crossover codenamed CC21. According to a media report, the new model will be unveiled on May 20, 2021.

The CC21 is part of Citroen's "C Cubed" program. The crossover will be manufactured at Citroen's manufacturing facility located at Thiruvallur, Tamil Nadu. It is expected to be launched in India around September this year. The car will also be introduced in emerging markets in North Africa and South America.

The CC21 will be based on Citroen's modular CMP platform. The SUV will feature a quirky exterior with headlamps positioned on the front bumper and slim LED daytime running lights on top.

Reports suggest that the car could be offered with a 1.2-litre, turbo-petrol engine. Transmission options might include a 5-speed manual and an automatic gearbox.

Citroen C3 final design leaked online via scale model images.

Quote:
While the new C3 will see an India launch later this year, the model is expected to have a global debut very soon. Also, as announced by Groupe PSA, the new C3, currently known as the C21 in India, will launch in our market this year. The C21 is the first model of a multi-model C-Cubed programme that was announced by the French brand earlier. This programme will cater to cars built for emerging markets like India and South America, to name a few.

Finally something different looking in the CSUV segment! Hope the French can get this CSUV perfect in terms of space, features and most importantly pricing! They can’t afford to make a ‘C5 Aircross’ blunder here!

re: Citroen C3 budget crossover for India

Looks like a cross between the upcoming Tata HBX and a Kwid, with some Citroen quirkiness thrown in on the front for good measure. The windowline somehow reminds me of the Magnite to an extent. Alloys look nice!

Overall, seems like a well balanced and cohesive design.

At the risk of going off topic, is this the first time ever that an upcoming model has been leaked through a scale model?

re: Citroen C3 budget crossover for India

So what is it that Citroen plans to offer to make this stand out amongst a dozen other choices in this segment?

re: Citroen C3 budget crossover for India

One thing to observe is that this is more like a low cost hatch than a premium hatch
- The Door Handles are Flap Types vs Pull Type
- Indicator on side fender despite it being the top model
- Pseudo alloys (similar strategy as offered on the Triber top trim)
- No shark fin antenna ( short antenna )
- No rear wiper

In my opinion this is more like a KWID Competitor vs an i20 or Baleno competitor (such close resemblance to the KWID - Front & Rear )

Features maybe just present in the scale model & not actual model - however just my observations

Is this French OEM just following the older French OEM in the market ?
