Novo C3

The Citroën Novo C3 is a compact hatchback that strikes just the right balance between practicality and style to efficiency in one attractive package. Its modern, clean lines and cheeky front grille combine strength performance with aggressive road presence. To borrow from the color palette, it is also available in a few strong-hued colors, making for an irresistible look for the young urban driver.

Under its bonnet lies a 1.2-liter naturally aspirated engine that produces a very respectable 82 horsepower and 115 Nm of torque. But what remains its pillar for being such a popular go-to transportive experience is the good, old five-speed manual transmission, making the driver feel so much more attached to his journey. The best feature of the Novo C3 is the mileage it provides: an average 20 km/l that will make for an incredibly cost-effective commute or drive.

Inside, the Novo C3 combines comfort and functionality in its cabin. The seats are covered with fabric of high class quality, and the lay-out is optimized for all passengers. There is a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system that provides options such as USB and AUX, so it is very convenient to get your favorite music and navigation apps within reach.

On safety, it boasts of what is self-evident airbags, ABS, traction control as well as ISOFIX child seat anchors. And on steering and suspension, Novo C3’s ride and handling are responsive and smooth over varying road surfaces, respectively.

The Novo C3 is a great choice for the pursuit of a trendy, functional, and affordable hatchback. It really serves well in narrow alleys of heavy traffic cities but can also travel longer distances through highways with high ground clearance.
