Citroen India has teased the upcoming eC3X, hinting at the arrival of a new electric crossover-coupe for the Indian market.
The eC3X could offer a 29.2kWh battery pack and a claimed driving range of up to 320km.
Citroen India has officially teased the upcoming eC3X, providing the first glimpse of its next electric offering for the Indian market. The teaser indicates that Citroen is preparing to expand its electric vehicle portfolio, with the eC3X expected to arrive in the Indian market in the coming months.
The eC3X is expected to be the all-electric counterpart of the Basalt-based crossover-coupe and could play an important role in Citroen's strategy to strengthen its presence in India's rapidly expanding electric vehicle segment.
What does the teaser reveal?
While the teaser image reveals only limited details, it showcases the silhouette of a crossover-inspired vehicle with a sloping roofline. The design appears to follow the coupe-SUV styling trend that has become increasingly popular among buyers.
Expected design highlights include:
LED DRLs and split headlamp setup
Coupe-style sloping roofline
Raised ground clearance
Signature Citroen front fascia
Keyless Entry
The overall design is likely to closely mirror the standard C3X/Basalt, with EV-specific styling updates helping differentiate it from its petrol-powered sibling.
Expected Powertrain and Battery Details
Citroen has not yet revealed official specifications for the eC3X. However, the model is expected to borrow its electric powertrain from the existing eC3 hatchback.
| Specification | Expected Details |
|---|---|
| Battery Pack | 29.2 kWh |
| Power Output | 56 bhp |
| Torque | 143 Nm |
| Charging Support | DC Fast Charging |
| Drivetrain | Front-Wheel Drive |
Citroen expected price and rivals
The Citroen eC3X is expected to be priced between ₹11.99 lakh and ₹13.26 lakh (ex-showroom). The electric crossover is likely to appeal to buyers seeking SUV-inspired styling, a practical cabin, and an accessible entry point into electric mobility.
Once launched, the eC3X will compete with several affordable electric vehicles in India, including the Tata Punch EV, Tata Nexon EV and the MG Windsor EV in certain price brackets.
Citroen's electric portfolio in India currently remains relatively small compared to several rivals. The introduction of the eC3X would allow the brand to enter a growing segment where buyers are increasingly seeking practical electric crossovers with SUV-inspired styling.
With the teaser campaign now underway, Citroen appears to be preparing for the eC3X's market debut. If priced competitively, the new electric crossover could strengthen the brand's EV lineup and provide buyers with another practical alternative in India's growing electric vehicle segment.
