Citroen India is gearing up to launch the automatic versions of its latest model, the C3 Aircross. Customers can pre-book the SUV at select dealerships for a token amount of Rs. 25,000. Currently, the 5+2-seater SUV is available across three variants, namely, You, Plus, and Max, at a starting price of Rs. 9.99 lakh (ex-showroom).

As per our sources, the C3 Aircross will get two automatic variants – Plus and Max. The new gearbox will be a six-speed automatic torque converter unit, which we speculated post its introduction in the Indonesian market.

Currently, the Citroen C3 Aircross comes equipped with a 1.2-litre turbo-petrol engine mated to a six-speed manual gearbox. This motor is tuned to produce 109bhp and 190Nm of peak torque while delivering a claimed mileage of 18.5kmpl (as per ARAI).
