Citroën has added a new twist to its C3 hatchback with the launch of the Limited Sport Edition. Priced at ₹9.57 lakh (ex-showroom), this new variant comes at a small premium of ₹21,000 over the regular model. It brings a fresh visual appeal to the C3 without making any changes to the mechanical setup.
New Design With Sporty Touches
The biggest highlight of this edition is the styling. The Limited Sport Edition gets a Garnet Red body colour which is exclusive to this variant. This shade gives the car a bold and sportier look.
There are ‘SPORT’ decals placed neatly on the doors and side panels. These stickers are subtle but help in giving the hatch a more active look. There are also cosmetic add-ons like ambient cabin lighting and brushed metal pedals which enhance the driving feel.
Inside the cabin, things feel a bit more energetic. It gets special seat covers, new carpet mats, and seatbelt cushions. All follow a dark theme with contrast elements to match the sport vibe. It still keeps the signature quirky Citroën layout but adds a fun twist.
No Change To Engine Or Gearbox
Under the hood, everything remains the same. It is powered by the same 1.2L turbo petrol engine. This three-cylinder motor churns out 110 PS and 205 Nm of torque. These are still the highest numbers in its segment.
What sets it apart is the 6-speed torque converter automatic gearbox. It helps the car go from 0 to 100 kmph in just 10 seconds. That’s quick for a car in this price range. Unlike other hatchbacks that use AMTs, Citroën sticks to a proper automatic for a smoother drive.
This setup makes the C3 a fun little car to drive, especially in city traffic and even on open roads. The acceleration is brisk and the power delivery is consistent.
Optional Tech Kit For More Features
Citroën is also offering a Tech Kit option for ₹15,000. This kit includes a wireless phone charger and a dashcam. These are practical add-ons and make daily driving more convenient.
The best part is that these features are available across the distribution of the variant. You don’t need to go through trims or custom builds to get them.
Citroën C3 Sport Edition keeps the excitement alive in the budget hatchback space. It’s made for those who want style and performance in a compact, city-friendly package.
