New Citroen C3 Commercial?

The Citroën C3 is a supermini car equipped with a range of inline-four engines that has been produced by the French automaker Citroën since 2002. It was designed by Donato Coco and Jean-Pierre Ploué, previously known for designing the first generation Renault Twingo; the former has been the head of the Citroën design team since 1999. A mini MPV version of the C3 was announced in July 2008, called the C3 Picasso, unveiled at the Mondial de l'Automobile 2008 and went on sale in early 2009 across Europe.

The C3 was available with 1.1, 1.4 and 1.6 L petrol engines, and 1.4 and 1.6 L HDi engines. All models came as standard with a five-speed manual transmission or an optional semi-manual with paddle-shifters, except for the Stop & Start model, which came with Citroën's SensoDrive gearbox – a five-speed semi-automatic transmission with manual and automatic modes. The SX model was the only version that has the option of a four-speed fully automatic transmission.

In accordance with PSA Group policy, the C3's chassis was used for the Peugeot 1007 and the Peugeot 207. Many components of the C3 are the same as those of the Peugeot 206.
