Citron C3The Citron C3 is a supermini car made by Citron. Launched in 2003 as one of two replacements for the Citron Saxo (the other being the smaller Citron C2 of 2004), the car seems to be a turning point for Citron as it introduces an innovative image to the company. It was designed by Jean Pierre Plou, previously known for authoring the Renault Twingo design, and head of the Citron design team since 1999. The C3 family received in July 2003 a new member in the form of the highly-adaptable C3 Pluriel, which can be configured as a convertible, a pick-up or a closed car thanks to its folding metal roof. In some ways the C3 Pluriel is a successor to the utilitarian Citron Mhari of the 1970s. The engine line-up of C3 is similar to the Saxo, with 1.1 L, 1.4 L and 1.6 L petrol engines as well as a 1.5 L diesel. Being designed by Peugeot, the chassis will eventually find its way underneath the Peugeot 1007 which will arrive some time in the near future. The Saxo was one of the least spacious cars in the supermini sector. The C3 addressed this problem with one of the most spacious interiors in its class.
