The budget-oriented addition to the local Citroën C3 Aircross model line-up is equipped with a 1.2-litre, three-cylinder petrol engine, which, unlike the turbo-triple employed by its C3 Aircross stablemates, goes without breathing apparatus. The naturally aspirated unit produces 61 kW and 115 N.m of torque, exclusively sent to the front axle via a five-speed manual cog swapper. Citroën claims the atmospheric motor sips, on average, 6.2 L/100 km, making it 0.1 L/100 km more efficient than the 81 kW/205 N.m turbocharged PureTech three-pot.
