The new-generation Citro\u00ebn \u00eb-C3 has entered the market with a 44 kWh battery, priced just above 20,000 euros. This compact electric car stands out with its original and modern design, without being too flashy. Despite its compact size, the \u00eb-C3 has a spacious interior, with a high roof providing extra headroom. However, the front seats are quite compact and can be uncomfortable on long journeys, while the rear seats have limited legroom due to the battery placement.<\/p>\n
The trunk space is impressive, offering between 310 and 1200 liters, comparable to the Volkswagen Polo. The base trim is minimalist, with only essential electronic assistants and optional extras such as LED headlights and a rearview camera. The interior is simple but neatly assembled, with a minimalist dashboard and optional features like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.<\/p>\n
The \u00eb-C3 is designed for city driving, with a 113-hp electric motor delivering modest acceleration. It reaches 50 km\/h in 4 seconds and 100 km\/h in 10.7 seconds, with a top speed limited to 132 km\/h. The Advanced Comfort suspension excels in handling bumps and potholes, making it suitable for city driving. However, the lack of a one-pedal driving mode is a notable omission.<\/p>\n
The \u00eb-C3 has a limited range of 204 km, typical for budget electric vehicles. Charging supports up to 100 kW, with a 26-minute charging time from 20% to 80%. While the limited range may offset the appeal of the low price, the \u00eb-C3 remains one of the most affordable electric cars on the market.<\/p>\n
Overall, the Citro\u00ebn \u00eb-C3 is a great choice for daily city driving or as a family’s second car. Its strengths lie in its comfortable suspension, ample city performance, and ease of use. With a final test score of 7.2 out of 10, the \u00eb-C3 is an appealing option for those seeking an affordable electric car for everyday needs. As part of the Stellantis group, Citro\u00ebn continues to expand its electric vehicle lineup, making them increasingly accessible to a wide audience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
