Yes, Citroen, the company, is totally going to blow up the market with the launch of the much-awaited C3 Dark Edition in India. The C3 has a bold new visual identity, which is inspired by the recently launched Basalt and Aircross Dark Editions across the C range. The edition is made bold to appeal to style-minded urban consumers.
The French carmaker teased the special edition a while back, and more recently, juicy information has been revealed regarding design features that hint at a new launch.
What Will Be New About the C3 Dark Edition?
On the outside, the Citroen C3 Dark Edition will sport a new black colorway, complemented with blacked-out elements to give the hatchback a stealthy yet rather premium-looking profile. Some other additions include dual-tone alloy wheels and silver faux skid plates, adding a touch of rugged elegance to the appearance.
Step inside, and the all-black theme continues. The dashboard, seats, and armrests are embellished with red contrast stitching, adding a sporty flair to the otherwise minimalist cabin. There's even special 'Dark Edition' embroidery on the front seats and gray inserts for added detailing. Customers will also receive special accessories like themed seat belts and cushions, raising the bar for the feel-good factor inside the car.
No Mechanical Changes Under the Hood
Citroen now continues to keep all powertrains from the previous model for this version. The C3 Dark Edition comes with a 1.2-liter petrol engine that comes in two types: a naturally aspirated and a turbocharged engine. Manual as well as torque converter automatic gearbox attachments would be available for further discretion.
More Than Just an Aesthetic Refresh
Of course, this Dark Edition does not add performance enhancements to the hatch because it does, however, refresh Citroen's compact hatch in terms of design. This C3 Dark Edition offers added premium realism at a fairly accessible price point to entice new customers considering Citroen with the increasing trend of all-black variants across all segments.
Await the launch to capture details about the official price and variant-wise feature list, expected soon.
