Car Reviews » Citroen » C3
The Citroen C3 was first launched in 2002 and is a supermini car. The C3 was inspired by the 2CV.
The front seats are spacious thanks to a high roofline. However, the rear seats can be cramped, especially on long journeys. The large rear window makes the rear seats feel larger than they actually are. The boot is extremely spacious and the rear seat can be folded down to increase the size. The dashboard is T shaped and the centre console is unfussy and easy to navigate. The dials are analogue and easy to read.
The C3 has not scored highly on safety tests. Stability control is not available as standard on all of the models in the C3 range. Stability control reduces the risk of the loss of control. The CE also scored low on safety tests due to the poor protection from the head and seat restraints. The restraints such help reduce the risk of whiplash injuries.
