Is the Citroën ë-C3 really affordable?

Citroën had promised a car under €25,000 and €99 per month. Kept. But the high-end version also plays along.

The entry-level Citroën ë-C3 YOU concerned by the €99 offer is equipped with a very good level of standard equipment. It includes notably LED headlights, Citroën Advanced Comfort suspensions, Active Safety Brake (emergency braking system), the new Citroën Head Up Display, power mirrors, automatic lighting, rear parking aid, rear spoiler, cruise control with limiter, manual air conditioning, and 6 airbags. At €23,300 cash, it’s hard to find anything to complain about.

We now know the prices of the high-end version ë-C3 MAX and it’s quite a pleasant surprise. The high-end “Max” series also includes 17-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels, Biton two-tone paint with contrasting roof, decorative roof bars, front and rear protective plates, a 10.25-inch color touchscreen with smartphone mirroring, Citroën Advanced Comfort® Seats, automatic wipers, electrically foldable and heated side mirrors, a leather-effect steering wheel, a 60/40 split-folding second row of seats, driver’s seat adjustment, LED taillights, tinted rear windows, TEP/Fabric seats, automatic climate control, 3D navigation, wireless charging, a rearview camera, electrochromatic mirror, and electric rear windows. The total for all this is €27,800. We crunched the numbers, and €4,500 for all these options really feels like a good deal!
