So that was the variant-wise feature split of the Citroen C3 Aircross. As for its powertrain options, there’s nothing to split the variants as the SUV gets a sole 1.2-litre turbo-petrol engine paired with a six-speed manual powertrain option. The output is rated at 110PS and 190Nm, and an automatic option is in the pipeline and will be introduced later on.
