The Citroen C3 is a representative of the small city car class. The C2 along with the C3 model replaced the popular Citroen Saxo. Both cars have relatively different designs that allow Citroen to fight the whims of different buyers. The C3 is designed as a larger family car with a 5-door body, while the C2 is designed for more young drivers with a 2-door body and a slightly more dynamic design. The C3 chassis is used in the production of the Peugeot 1007 model, and many C3 components are used in other Peugeot 206 models (such as the same exterior mirrors). The C3 is available with 1.1 L, 1.4 L and 1.6 L petrol and 1.4 L, 1.6 L HDi diesel engines. The C3 car has two interesting technologies. The first Stop & Start system features a hybrid system with an internal combustion engine and an additional small electric motor. This system automatically shuts off the engine as soon as the car comes to a complete stop. Another system, the SensoDrive, has a five-speed semi-automatic transmission with an automatically controlled clutch, so the car does not have a clutch pedal. There is also an interesting version of the C3 Pluriel, which has an easy-to-shape body - the car can be turned into a convertible or a closed car thanks to the removable fabric roof. In that, this model is somewhat similar to the legendary Citroen 2CV.
