This article will provide an ex-showroom price estimate for Citroen C3 Aircross SUV, which will compete with the Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos. In the C3 Aircross estimated price table, we will discuss the reasoning behind the calculations as well as the arguments that we used to come to our results. We’ll update this page as more information becomes available that might impact our price estimates for the Citroen C3 Aircross.
We learned that there will be three Citreon C3 Aircross variations available for the 5-seater layout when we had the opportunity to speak with Citroen representatives. The 7-seat layout will also be available for the higher 2 models. You, Plus, and Max are the names of the entry-level, middle, and top models, respectively.
We anticipate the C3 Aircross price could start at Rs. 10.0 lakh based on what we learn following extensive conversations with Citroen India’s top executives. More specifically, just under Rs. 10.0 lakh. When it goes on sale, the C3 Aircross may be the only C-segment SUV with a base price of less than Rs. 10.0 lakh.
We are even more certain of our estimates for the higher versions now that the beginning price has been established and the variant-specific feature information is available. The most expensive option, in our opinion, will undoubtedly be less than Rs. 13.0 lakh. In reality, we’re rather certain that the top C3 Aircross variant with the 7-seat arrangement will cost significantly less than Rs. 13.0 lakh — probably around Rs. 12.70 lakh (ex-showroom).
because the base variant is priced at Rs. 9.99 lakh and the higher Plus variant includes features worth roughly Rs. 1.0 lakh. The 7-seat arrangement might cost an extra Rs. 70,000 because it has a few extra features in addition to 2 extra seats.
The highest model then has additional features worth another Rs. 1.0 lakh. As a result, we arrived at an estimated price of Rs. 12.0 lakh for the top model with 5 seats and Rs. 12.70 lakh for the C3 Aircross Max variant with the 7-seat configuration.
The 1.2L turbo petrol engine, on the other hand, gives it a 7% tax benefit over its competitors, somewhat offsetting the cost of the turbocharger, intercooler, and direct injection.
While doing so would have resulted in many potential customers walking away. The price threshold of Rs. 10.0 lakh is a significant psychological barrier. Take a look at the CNG costs for the Tata Altroz. Tata had to quickly lower the price of the XZ Plus edition of the Altroz CNG below the psychological threshold after it was initially introduced at Rs. 10.03 lakh.
Citroen representatives expressly stated during our meeting that the sunroof becomes a highly desired item for buyers in the Rs. 13.0-plus lakh pricing range. This gives the strong impression that they intend to keep it much below Rs. 13,000, at least initially. In the future, they might increase the variation and add an automatic gearbox to raise the price to Rs. 15.0 lakh. But for the time being, it should remain far under the Rs. 13.0 lakh cap.
The base 5-seater Citroen C3 Aircross variant should cost as little as Rs. 10.0 lakh. The highest-end C3 Aircross model with three rows of seating might cost up to Rs. 12.70 lakhs (ex-showroom).
