REVIEW: A new entry-level Citroen C3 gets eye-catching looks to match its price. We find out if this £13,805 supermini is up to scratch
The interior feels a bit cheaper and more plain than that exterior might lead you to expect. Citroen’s usual flair with colour and trim would evidently have been too pricey for the car; so you get dark mouldings only, as well as a cheap-feeling plastic steering wheel, and a small, antiquated-looking monochrome infotainment system without any navigation or smartphone connectivity .
There are brighter touches about the car’s seat upholstery, but the seats themselves offer only average passenger space for a small car ; and while the front ones are soft and quite large, they lack the shape and back support for comfortable long-distance running. The car is offered with Citroen’s normally aspirated, 82bhp, 1.2-litre Puretech petrol engine only, and only with a five-speed manual gearbox. On the road, it has Citroen-typical light steering, permissive body control, and that longish-travel lope about its primary ride.
While neither the car’s clutch action nor its gearshift feel particularly well defined, its engine is a willing revver and can put on speed keenly enough when you need it to; but it can also be fairly refined and economical.
