Author’s Take

With its impressive performance and dynamics, the Citroen C3 promises a delightful driving experience. The recent upgrades to the C3 Turbo have made it a nearly perfect package, albeit lacking some feel-good features. A revamp of the variant-wise feature structure would also have been a welcome addition.
