The new Citroen C3 Aircross saw its debut in summer 2021, updating the aesthetics with some typical changes of the restyling: front bumper, LED light signature, new colors and updated interior.
Even with some innovations, however, the car remains basically the same we are used to, and this is for some; an advantage because & eacute; & egrave; one of the few remaining B-SUV/crossovers able to maintain the diesel engine in the range.

DO YOU STILL NEED DIESEL? 
The diesel starts from here, the reflection is still needed in this product category? With the increase in car prices affecting all segments and with the price increases that will come in the next few years, partly also as a result of the semi-conductor crisis, diesel can & ograve; still make sense in segment B as well.
Although abused in the past, where those who bought diesel with a particulate filter risked doing serious damage because used the car only in the city; and rarely managed to get the regeneration process started in the extra-urban area, diesel still remains a necessity; for those who travel a lot out of town and wants to keep costs down.
Not everyone, however, can afford to look at the higher segments and not everyone has the need, especially because a modern B-SUV & egrave; more spacious compared to the past. For this reason, therefore, C3 Aircross manages to address that niche that travels a lot on the motorway but does not need a C segment or a D segment , resulting in this almost a white fly.
SPACE ON BOARD: BOOT AND CABIN 
Compact but generous inside and with well usable spaces: in length you can load objects from 2.4 meters. Not bad C3 Aircross: step of 2.6 meters, there & # 39; & egrave; who does slightly better, but the sliding rear bench seat is; perfect for those with such a family; it adapts to the needs of luggage loading or transport. Promoted.

- Wheelbase: 2.6 meters
- Boot: 410-520 liters, up to 1,289 liters
- Rims: 16 & quot ;, 17 & quot;

WHAT WE LIKE 
 and heating. </p>
<p> <strong> Lights and shadows for ADAS </strong>: there are twelve to count them but, in reality, the ones that count are less: automatic emergency braking in the city; (from 5 km/h up to 85 km/h), lane monitoring with overrun warning and blind spot monitoring. </p>
</p>
<p> WHAT WE DON'T LIKE <img src = )
There is driver attention monitoring but it is not nothing sophisticated (with face recognition cameras and sensors), it is based only on the time spent driving at speed; above 65 km/h and on the number of & quot; skids & quot; beyond the white stripes. There is the rear view camera that has a bird's eye view and an angle of 180 & deg;: excellent, but the quality & agrave; & egrave; really low when compared to the latest news.
The lane monitoring itself is; only passive: a buzzer but no steering intervention, and the same goes for blind spot monitoring.
In short, while being able to count on semi-automatic parking, on speed control; downhill, on keyless and automatic high beams, the competitors manage to make an extra technological effort; and they can offer semi-automatism (whether standard or optional).
HOW DOES IT GO AND WHICH ENGINE DO I CHOOSE? 
C3 Aircross goes exactly like four years ago. It is a restyling, the substance does not change: comfortable in the city, it makes you feel little about the disconnections but watch out for the chasms, in those it is; penalized by a soft setup that on a sharp and deep hit does not have the support of more models; & quot; sportsmen & quot; and risks & quot; yield & quot; at the end of the stroke.
Calm but inevitable roll, & egrave; the car that wants to be city or from unpretentious journeys, better the motorway ones than the curvy roads of the mountain.
- PureTech 110 S & amp; S: petrol, 110 hp, 6-speed manual gearbox
- PureTech 130 S & amp; S EAT6: petrol, 130 hp, 6-speed automatic transmission
- Diesel BlueHDi 110 S & amp; S: diesel, 110 hp, 6-speed manual gearbox
- BlueHDi 120 diesel S & amp; S EAT6: diesel, 120 hp, 6-speed automatic transmission
The mirror is clear: a petrol and a diesel engine, two power cuts, two types of gearbox. Those who travel mainly on long routes, outside the city & agrave; and grinding so many kilometers a day, it can & ograve; choose between the two diesels but at that point the advice & egrave; to go on the 110 CV, they go more & ugrave; that good for a car of this size and if you do little town & agrave; the manual gearbox does not stress too much, you will use it little.
Even for those who do not travel, and want a city car, it is better to turn to the 110 hp because & eacute; both petrol engines do not thrill. At that point, since you will hardly take her to stretch her legs, the advice is; to go on the less powerful engine and, possibly, use the money saved for a more set-up; rich. If the traffic from you & egrave; terrible then worth the automatic that there is only on the 130 bhp petrol, but it starts from the 24,550 & euro; Shine. They are not few.
The EAT6, then, is the automatic gearbox that serves for the automatism, but it is not; lightning fast and absolutely does not look at fun driving. It serves to relieve you of the stress of friction.
THE TECHNOLOGY 
afe41.jpg p> Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are there , they are displayed on the new 9 & quot; display; but you need the cable , there are no wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto.
The interface is pleasant, does not & quot; taste of old & quot; graphically but it would need a modernization in the functions and in its logic, today there are cars that are able to give us a more experience; similar to smartphones and therefore more; intuitive between shortcuts, notification curtains with quick commands and a menu where each function is; just a few taps away.
For the air conditioner you have to press a button and enter the menu on the touchscreen. Uncomfortable? Probable: objectively it is more distracting, but there is who likes & quot; all touch & quot ;.
PRICES AND PROMOTIONS 
The price list is not; right among the most & ugrave; cheap: today the B-SUVs cost more, but here we have a platform and a technology that is not at the top. We start from the 110 HP petrol in Live setup which costs 19,800 & euro ;, however, remembering that – excluding Dacia, Tesla and a few others, all cars have a different price than the sheet of paper in the dealership.
Feel & egrave; the mandatory set-up to have a minimum of accessories : the electric windows, for example, but it also puts in it fog lights with cornering, smartphone mirroring, parking sensors and so on. Shine could be the one for those who want a complete car, too bad you need Shine Pack to have the sliding rear sofa as standard. As an almost distinctive feature, having it already; more at the bottom of the range it would have been perfect.
