Citroen has announced the launch of an updated Aircross for India. It had shown the car during the drive of the Basalt coupe SUV and had announced the same in May of this year. The new (not a C3 anymore) Aircross introduces several key improvements that enhance its safety, comfort, and overall driving experience. New features include six airbags and ISOFIX child seat anchors for improved safety. The SUV now comes equipped with LED projector headlamps, ensuring better visibility and automatic air conditioning with climate control. Enhanced interior features include power window switches on the doors, grab handles on the passenger side, power-folding ORVMs, and a rear AC vent. Additionally, the interior is upgraded with a soft-touch instrument panel, contributing to a more refined and premium ambience.
Citroen has lowered the entry-level pricing by introducing 1.2-litre NA variants. This is the same 1.2 Puretech 82 producing 82bhp/115Nm of torque and only available with a five-speed MT. The Aircoss comes now with over 40 advanced safety features electronic stability program, tyre pressure monitoring system, and a hill-hold assist for a smooth and confident driving experience across diverse terrains. The Aircross will be available in 5 and 5+2 seating options, further giving a choice to the customers.
