The new Citroen C3 officially starts its commercial course in the Greek market, being now available at the exhibitions of the brand's network of distributors. The new model marks a new era for Citroën, as it sets new standards in the car market. And it puts the brand's promise into practice, offering affordable mobility and democratising electromobility.
At a time when car prices are rising, Citroën innovates once again, launching in Greece the new C3 in petrol version with a starting price of €16.900 and the e-C3 100% electric with €18.900 (including the state subsidy of the Moving Electric 3 programme).
The model range is completed by the new Hybrid 100 e-DCS6 hybrid powertrain, with no charging restrictions, enabling consumers to carry out their 50% of urban commuting purely electrically. It is offered with a starting price from €21,900 and will be available in Greece in the first quarter of 2025 (promotion included).
Citroën's new proposal literally revolutionizes the car market as it packs its distinctive design philosophy, its customer-centric "value for money" approach and top-of-the-line comfort and technology equipment into the new Citroën C3.
Among the 7 finalists
Having already won thirteen international awards, the New Citroën C3 has reached the final stage of the race for the coveted 2025 Car of the Year title, joining the group of seven finalists from the original fifty models that qualified.
Making the list is an important distinction for the new model, regardless of powertrain, which continues the legacy of Citroën's best-selling model that has sold more than 5,600,000 units worldwide.
Beyond this milestone, the New C3 will be the star of dedicated activities across Europe. An example of the initiatives that will accompany the journey up to the declaration ceremony on 10 January 2025 is the event organised at Milan's City Life by monthly magazine Auto, the Italian organiser of the Car Of The Year award, which includes an exhibition area and test drive sessions from 6 to 15 December.
Citroën in the history of the car of the year
The new C3 succeeds the C4, which was among the seven finalists in 2021, and claims to continue the legacy of the XM, CX and GS that won the title in 1990, 1975 and 1971 respectively.
Looking through the roll of honour to identify the Citroën models that have already won the title, it is clear that innovation and comfort have been key elements of success in the past: characteristics, along with the proverbial boldness, that we find in the C3 today.
