Citroen introduced a facelifted version for the C3 Aircross at the beginning of 2020 and upgraded its engines and safety systems to comply with the Euro6d norms.

To expand its crossover range, Citroen has decided to give it a specific name: Aircross. It was used for several vehicles and the C3 Aircross was one of them.

The battle for the small-sized urban electric crossover was amplified in late 2023 when Citroen introduced the e-C3 in its lineup, challenging the best-selling nameplate in the segment, the Dacia Spring.

The sub-compact car was very well received by the market and, even in 2019, was still placed on the top 5 selling vehicles in its segment across Europe. The first two generations were kind of conservative, but the third one has changed its exterior shape and has been improved with a bolder look.

The third generation of the Citroen C3 was shown in June 2016. While it wasn't a class-leader for the small-size segment, it was stylish and had some tempting equipment.

After four years on the market, the small-sized C3 received a well-deserved facelift that brought it essential upgrades and fixed some of the issues encountered on the 2009 model.

The second generation of the Citroen C3 was unveiled at the 2009 Frankfurt Motorshow. It was built on the same PF1 platform, used by the French group since 1998.

Citroen upgraded its C3 range for the 2005 year and brought new technologies for its five-door, small-segment contender.

Citroen saw the rise of the crossover segment and prepared a modified regular, small-segment C3, and made it look like an offroad-wannabe vehicle.

Following its tradition to have supermini vehicles in its lineup, the French carmaker prepared a successor for the five-door Saxo, overlapping it for a couple of years.
