What you should know about charging the new electric Citroën ë-C3

Citroën recently unveiled its new all-electric city car – the ë-C3. The car has been available for pre-order since October and the first deliveries are planned for the second half of 2024. It is available at a very competitive price and is mainly produced in Europe. This puts it at the top of the list to compete with its direct rival, the Dacia Spring! As a future owner of an ë-C3, you're probably wondering how to manage charging. Whether at home or on the road, we will tell you all the information you need to master charging your (future) fully electric Citroën ë-C3.

"The compatibility of electric drive and accessibility" – a major challenge that Citroën has formulated with the launch of its new, fully electric city car.

The ë-C3 is available from 23,330 euros and is offered at an unbeatable price compared to its competitors such as the Peugeot e-208 or the Renault Zoé. Although the ë-C3 is slightly more expensive than its main rival, the Dacia Spring, he is nevertheless very attractive and will compete with his direct competitor.
Citroën's new electric car will also be available in two very well-equipped versions, namely "You" and "Max".

Its main advantage? The model is produced in Europe, more precisely at the Trnava plant in Slovakia, and, like the Dacia Spring produced in China, benefits from the environmental bonus of 5000 euros. A stroke of luck for the Citroën company, which wants to shake up the competition with this new electric model!

"We want to make the whole process easier and fairer for customers, through a 'simplified product range' approach to production levels, as well as greater price transparency," says Nicolas Monnot, Director of Citroën prix & performance.

With an output of 83 kw (113 hp), the ë-C3 Electric can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 11 seconds and reach a top speed of 135 km/h.

It has a 44 kWh lithium iron phosphate battery with a range of up to 320 km in the WLTP cycle. By the way, the range depends on several factors, such as the state of charge of the battery, the type of route (highway, city or mixed), the weather, etc. ...
