Variants
As mentioned above, it will be only offered in the top spec Shine trim. The Dual Tone versions get a two paint exterior finish and the ‘Vibe Pack’ adds a few cosmetic design changes. The automatics cost about ₹85,000 more than the equivalent manual gearbox Shine Dual Tone and Shine Dual Tone Vibe Pack variants.
Features
Same as the manual variant, that means you get LED projector headlamps, electrically adjustable wing mirrors with integrated turn signals, an automatic climate control system, a seven inch digital instrument cluster, a 10.2 inch infotainment touchscreen and six airbags. However, the automatic versions get connected car tech via the ‘MyCitroen Connect’ smartphone app additionally.
Powertrain
It utilizes the 110 HP, 190(MT)/205(AT) N-m, 1.2 litre, turbo petrol engine that is also shared with the automaker’s other cars like the Basalt and the Aircross SUV, even the six speed torque convertor automatic gearbox used here is the same as them.
Rivals
Regarding the cost which the C3 automatic has been introduced at, it is priced above its arch rival the Tata Punch, but it still manages to undercut its other main competitor, the Hyundai Exter. Notably, both the other cars get rather rudimentary five speed AMTs as opposed to the smoother torque convertor automatic transmission as seen here.
