The Citroën C3 Aircross will become a seven-seat electric SUV as it enters its second generation, Autocar can confirm. Brand CEO Thierry Koskas showed preview images of the new model – later confirmed by a Citroën UK spokesperson to be the new Aircross – at the end of the presentation of the new ë-C3.
Little information is known about the new Aircross, but Koskas confirmed it would remain a B-segment model with a conventional two-three-two seating layout. Autocar understands that it will use the new Smart Car platform which underpins the ë-C3, but stretched significantly to offer sufficient room for seven occupants. As such, the new C3 Aircross is expected to arrive with a range of electric and internal-combustion powertrains.
