The mid-spec Citroen C3 Aircross Plus variant detailed here is finished in the Platinum Grey paint option
The Citroen C3 Aircross is the latest compact SUV to go on sale in India. While it has entered one of the most crowded SUV spaces, it does have its unique proposition as it can be had with both 5- and 7-seat versions (the third row is removable in the latter as well). The French marque is offering the C3 Aircross in three broad variants: You, Plus and Max. In this story, let’s check out the mid-spec Plus variant in five images which is finished in the Platinum Grey paint option:
How Does It Look On The Outside?
Up front, the C3 Aircross’s Plus variant gets a gloss-black finish for the grille and silver skid plate. It has split headlights and LED DRLs from the base variant onward, but misses out on front fog lamps.
