Citroen C3 has a price of Rs 6.16 lakh for the base variant whereas the price for the top variant starts at Rs 7.60 lakh and goes up to Rs 7.87 lakh (all prices ex-showroom).

Citroen C3 was launched in India back in 2022. However, the affordable car missed out on some features. To fill that gap, the French automaker has launched the Citroen C3 Shine, the top-variant of the hatchback with the new additional features at a starting price of Rs 7.60 lakh (ex-showroom) and goes up to Rs 7.87 lakh (ex-showroom). Some of these new features are a segment first. For instance, the car will now have features like 10-inch touchscreen display with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.

The list of features now also includes electrically adjustable ORVM, rear parking camera, day/night IRVM, 15-inch diamond cut alloys, front fog lamps, rear skid plates, rear wiper & washer, rear defogger. The Shine variant of this B-hatch will also come equipped with MY CITROEN CONNECT app with 35 Smart connectivity features as part of the Citroen’s Connectivity 1.0 plan.

Saurabh Vatsa, Brand Head, Citroën India added, "We are excited to launch the new Shine variant of the Citroen C3 with the latest features that customers in this segment are aspiring for. With the new Citroën Connectivity 1.0 now on board the C3, this hatch with a twist will truly be perfect all-round package for the young and progressive customer in this competitive segment."

Citroen C3 product range is now compliant with BS6 Phase II norms. The car gets a 1.2L 3-cylinder petrol engine available in normally aspirated and turbocharged configurations. The former produces 80 horsepower and 115 Nm working with a 5-speed MT, while the latter produces 109 horsepower and 190 Nm when connected to a 6-speed manual.
