The Citroen C3 Aircross made its local debut in 2019 and after its brief presence has attracted a lot of attention with its unique styling and vibrant colours. Based on the Citroen C3, the C3 Aircross retains much of the design elements upfront, however, sees functional changes made to the rear. First, the luggage space is increased with the restyled rear and also has less of a sloping roofline for increased headroom.
The C3 Aircross is offered in two distinct trim levels with the entry-level model given the name Feel and the more premium product the name Shine. Both derivatives are powered by the same 1.2-litre, turbocharged, 3-cylinder petrol motor coupled to a 6-speed automatic transmission. The combination sends all of the 81 kW and 205 Nm of torque to the front wheels.
Citroen C3 Aircross Feel
The Citroen C3 Aircross Feel is the base model in the range, however, retains plenty of comfort and safety equipment as standard specification. Although today if you were to purchase a new model, you would have to part with R 376 900, we will be using the introductory price of the French crossover and comparing it with used models of the same year to calculate the depreciation.
In 2019 if you were to purchase a new C3 Aircross model, it would have set you back R 366 900. Today the average combined price of a used Citroen C3 Aircross Feel model is R 299 900. This means that the Citroen C3 Aircross Feel managed to retain 81.74% of its original value since 2019.
Citroen C3 Aircross Shine
The Citroen C3 Aircross Shine model comes bolstered with additional features and trimmings on both the interior and exterior of the vehicle. Today if you wanted to purchase a new example, the model will cost you R 399 900. Like with the Feel model, we will be using the pricing as set out in 2019 at its local introduction.
The Citroen C3 Aircross Shine model was introduced locally at a retail price of R 394 900. Today the average combined price of a used Citroen C3 Aircross Shine model is R 269 900. Thus, the Shine model has only retained 68.35% of its original price.
