Citroen is aiming to introduce its new C3 hatchback by the beginning of 2010. The new Citroen C3 will take design cues from the recently revealed C3 Picasso MPV but still keep its own individual design.
“We do not want to produce Russian dolls,” said Carlo Bonzanigo, head of concept design at Citroen, “and as long as we communicate clearly the values of the Citroen brand then we have a lot of freedom of design.”
The company is remaining tight-lipped about the new Golf-rival, but expect it to be smaller and lighter than the current C3. Citroen is also making a push towards “a more upper-class, premium feel” across the range, according to Bonzanigo, so expect a big improvement in materials, layout and usable space inside the next C3.
The stop-start system already in use in the current C3 hatch will also appear in the next-generation model and the new C3 Picasso. (THanks to Autocar for News and Pictures).
