The Basalt X features a complete black exterior theme, giving it a bold and sporty appearance. These changes make it look different and more premium compared to the standard Basalt.

Here are some key elements of the exteriors in an all-black theme:

  • Dual-tone 16-inch alloy wheels

  • A coupe-style sloping roofline

  • Wraparound LED tail lamps

Updated Look Of The Cabin

Inside, the Basalt X gets a black-and-tan interior theme, replacing the lighter shades of the regular model. A rear center armrest with cup holders has been added for improved passenger comfort. Citroen might also have ambient lighting, which will make the cabin feel more stylish at night.

The new Basalt X will continue to offer the same list of features as the standard Basalt, including:

  • 10.2-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto

No Changes In The Engine And Powertrain Options

  • 1.2-litre turbo petrol (110 PS, 190 Nm) with 6-speed manual and (110 PS, 205 Nm) with 6-speed automatic.

The Expected Price

The standard Basalt has a price range from ₹8.32 lakh to ₹14.10 lakh (ex-showroom, pan-India). The Basalt X is expected to cost a little more than its regular version. It will have rivals like the Tata Curvv, Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, and Maruti Grand Vitara, etc.
