Citroen has started taking pre-launch bookings for the upcoming Basalt X for a token amount of Rs 11,000. Similar to the recently launched Citroen C3 X, the Basalt X is also expected to receive cosmetic and equipment upgrades. Interested customers can make their bookings either online or at an authorised Citreon dealership.

Going by the teaser images, the Basalt X is expected to get a new pattern imprint on the dashboard, along with bronze accents. Additionally, it is also expected to receive a new black & tan upholstery. There could also be some new feature additions, such as keyless entry with push-button start/stop, cruise control and an optional 360-degree camera.

While it’s not official, the French coupe could also get a new paint option.
