My Citroen C3 Turbo: Buying & 1,000 km ownership experience

As for the fuel efficiency, I get 16-18 km/l on highways and around 14+ km/l in the city with the AC always on.

BHPian skpprabhu recently shared this with other enthusiasts.

I am a proud owner of a C3 Turbo. I got my car delivered on 8th Sep and I have completed 1000 kms so far. If anyone is fine with the missing features, it is the best deal for this price.

Mechanically the car is perfect. Build quality is good, controls are light and easy to drive in city traffic too. Ride quality and suspension are way above the segment levels. In terms of mileage, I get 16-18 on highways and 14+ in city traffic with full-time AC on. The service center was approachable and responsive to service-related queries.

Negatives are missing features and a smaller fuel tank. Turbo supplies are limited, so there can be long waiting periods. In my case, the dealer was transparent and delivered the vehicle on promised timelines.

Customization has some issues where some of the accessories are still not available and dealers are also not clear about some areas. I had to take the delivery without the accessories and got everything installed 2 days later.

Prices have been increased but for the turbo, it is a minimal hike.

Here's what BHPian dipen had to say about the matter:

The effective price rise for the turbo from the introductory pricing is ~ 37,000. 9000 ex-showroom hike + the price of complementary alloys that were offered at the time of launch on the Turbo (~ 28000).

Congratulations on your new ride!

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I feel the same way about the controls and build quality. Yes, the Turbo price increase is relatively less.
