Citroen Basalt, C3 And Aircross Dark Edition Range First Look

Dark editions are getting quite popular nowadays and Citroen is the latest carmaker to bring out Dark Editions of all of its cars. Available in a limited edition, the Dark Edition comes in at an extra price of Rs 19,500. It is based on the top variants of the C3, Aircross, and the Basalt SUV Coupe. The big highlight here is the new 'Perla Nera' black colour while some of the other elements also get a darkened look including dark chrome on the Chevron badge, grille, side moulding as well as gloss black treatment being seen on the bumpers as well.
 
There are also Dark badges of course. We think black adds to the presence of cars and it is the same here while it is not just a new colour as the additional black trim adds a differentiating factor. Inside, there is also a black theme with black leatherette seats and more black trim while there is a hint of red with contrast red stitching. Even the dashboard is now leatherette covered. Citroen has also added gloss black elements too.
 

 

 

 

 
Other additions include different seat covers etc. The Dark Edition as you would expect has cosmetic changes only and the powertrains continue as on the standard versions. Prices for the Dark Edition C3 is Rs 8.38 lakh while the Dark Edition Aircross is priced at Rs 13.13 lakh along with the Basalt Dark Edition is Rs 12.80 lakh. Considering the changes, the Dark Editions are very competitively priced and look better too which means if you are eyeing a Basalt, C3 or Aircross, the Dark Edition is a bit of a no brainer.
