C3 Aircross is available with an automatic and manual gearbox.
Dash looks attractive and light upholstery accentuates sense of space.
Front seats are well cushioned, but light upholstery gets soiled easily.
The 5-seater gets a larger 444-litre boot space; no 60:40 split rear seats.

The Citroën C3 Aircross manual returned 9.76kpl in the city and 14.04kpl on the highway. As for the automatic, it was slightly less efficient as expected, managing 9.46kpl in the city and 13.62kpl on the highway.
Both versions get fuel-saving auto start/stop tech, but owing to high ambient temperatures during our test (around 40-degC), the system rarely switched the car off in order to keep the AC running. For reference, while cruising on the highway, in top gear, the manual sits at 2,000rpm at 100kph while the automatic spins at a slightly higher 2,100rpm.
