In terms of design, the Euro-spec C3 Aircross features a boxier design and comes with a bunch of features and tech. These include LED automatic headlights, rear parking sensors and camera, head-up display, 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment, wireless charging, larger alloy wheels and plenty more.

In Europe, the Citroen C3 Aircross will be offered with both petrol and EV powertrain options. The ICE version comes with either a 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol engine or a 3-cylinder mild-hybrid power unit. The turbo-petrol comes paired with a 5-speed manual, while the hybrid powertrain is mated to a 6-speed DCT.

The eC3 Aircross is said to be offered with a single-motor producing 136 BHP with the batteries offering a range of 400 km on a single charge.
