The new Citroën C3 Aircross has gone on sale as one of the UK market's cheapest seven-seaters, priced from £21,005 with three rows.
That price is beaten by the Dacia Jogger at £18,295 in its bare-bones Essential form, but as standard the C3 Aircross gets luxuries including a 10.25in touchscreen, 17in alloy wheels and a USB-C port for third-row passengers.
At 4.39m long, the C3 Aircross is the smallest seven-seater currently on sale.
With seven seats fitted (a £765 option), the boot is reduced from 460 to 330 litres; and with the third row up, luggage space is virtually non-existent (pictured below).
The C3 Aircross starts at £20,240 with five seats, Stellantis’s ubiquitous 100bhp turbo petrol engine and a six-speed manual gearbox.
The range tops out at £25,740 in Max trim, which is exclusively sold with a 136bhp mild-hybrid powertrain and an eight-speed automatic gearbox.
Max trim adds heated seats, a heated windscreen, additional body colour options, wireless smartphone charging and extra parking sensors.
The electric ë-C3 Aircross opens at £22,990 and can't be had in seven-seat form.
It's currently offered with just one 111bhp, 44kWh powertrain, giving it a range of 186 miles – down 17 miles on the smaller ë-C3.
A larger battery option will become available later this year, boosting range to more than 250 miles.
That price, just £2500 more than for the equivalent ICE C3 Aircross, undercuts the new Ford Puma Gen-E by around £7000 and the smaller MG 4 EV by £4000, albeit offering fewer miles.
The ë-C3 range tops out at £24,990 in Max trim.

OMG I've just seen the boot of this 7 seater, you would honestly struggle to get an empty sick bag in there. Iconic as it would soon be full judging by the rear most seating position.
No wonder Citroen aren't pumping that picture out.
Ironic, not Iconic. Oh the Irony.
As long as the 6th and 7th seats can be raised/lowered independently then you do end up with a6 seater with useful luggage capacity.
(Great to see that Will read and reacted to the comments!)
Insane low price but it's disappointing there's no photo of the two rear seats, they must be tiny and leave next to no luggage room.
Fair point. Have now added one above!
