Citroen C3

The Citroen C3 is no longer on sale as a new car in Australia, following Citroen's withdrawal from the local market in 2024. As the brand's smallest recent model here, it offered a very different flavour to mainstream light hatchbacks, with rounded styling, a soft cabin presentation and a clear focus on comfort. The C3 was never a volume seller, but its appeal was personality: it felt deliberately more relaxed and expressive than most city cars. For buyers looking at existing examples, it stands out for its compact size, distinctive design and easy urban manners. It is best viewed as a characterful French hatchback for people who want something unusual.
