It is one of our least SUV, at only 20,000 euros

Citroën's current offers remain faithful to the tradition of the brand by offering original designs, great practicality and optimal comfort. Among these proposals, the Citroën C3 Aircross has been an immediate success since its launch in 2017.

Today, this small SUV with a length of 4.16 meters continues to stand out thanks to its excellent ratio between its size and its habitability, as well as its advanced technological equipment and its high level of comfort. Moreover, with a starting price of 20,120 euros , it is one of the most affordable SUVs.

In this urban SUV there is plenty of space for four people to travel comfortably (it is a five-seater, as in almost all cars the fifth passenger will be a bit cramped).

Thus, in the back, the space for the legs and the head is important . It's not just a question of measurements, but of distribution (flat floor without central tunnel), of seats (the Advanced Comfort with special foam are magnificent) and of versatility .

Comfort and versatility, two of its strengths

The Citroën C3 Aircross stands out among other vehicles in its class by offering a rear bench seat divided into two parts. This feature offers the possibility of modifying the capacity of the boot , which varies from 410 to 520 liters depending on its configuration. Also, in addition to the sliding functionality of the bench seat , the passenger seat can be folded down to turn into a table , which is uncommon in this automotive segment.

High-quality Advanced Comfort seats, combined with a remarkably soft suspension, make the Citroën C3 Aircross the most comfortable SUV in its class. However, it suffers from a lack of agility on the road.

The interior of the C3 Aircross is mainly characterized by a 9-inch touchscreen, which is used to adjust the climate control. Nevertheless, there are few slots and compartments for storing objects.

As far as equipment is concerned , it includes air conditioning from the entry level, electric, heated and electrically folding mirrors, involuntary lane departure warning, tire pressure sensor and the Mirror Screen function which reflects the screen of our phone on the screen of the car.

In addition, depending on the version, it can also be equipped with the brand's connected services, such as navigation with 3D maps, real-time traffic information, parking prices and availability, fuel prices in gas stations and speed camera warnings, for example.

The C3 Aircross is distinguished by its lack of an ECO-labeled version, which makes it one of the few urban models in this situation from a mechanical point of view. It offers a 110 CV 1.5 diesel engine with a manual gearbox, as well as two 1.2 petrol engines: one of 110 CV with a manual gearbox and the other of 130 CV with a 6-speed automatic gearbox.

Despite the fact that it can only obtain the C label, the C3 Aircross has slightly higher fuel consumption than its competitors, especially in its automatic version, which can reach almost 7 l/100 km .

IN MOTOR PASSION

This ECO-labeled SUV is simple but very complete, and one of the best options to take away under 20,000 euros.

The strengths of the Citroën C3 Aircross lie in its size-livability ratio, its high comfort and a very attractive equipment-price ratio, with a starting price of just 20,120 euros .

Among the recommended alternatives to the C3 Aircross is the SEAT Arona, which offers a more confident ride on the road, although it is less comfortable. However, the SEAT Arona does not match the versatility of the C3 Aircross and is generally more expensive, with official prices starting at 22,290 euros, although commercial offers may be available.
