Citroen e-C3 Aircross 1000 km challenge part 1

Uploaded 4 months ago by Bjørn Nyland

Video Summary

The car, a Citroen e-C3 Aircross, is basic, a budget option, costing less than 300k for the base model. There's five seats and a fairly big trunk. It has a 45 kWh battery and can take 100 kW. The rear hatch tends to not close properly so the car doesn’t lock. The interior is okay.

The keyfob is strange as you have to insert a key to start it. The driver cannot show consumption with the car’s software. The language set for the small instrument cluster is separate from the main display’s setting. The instrument cluster is in an ID7 style and small. It has an annoying animation. Pressing and holding the trip button will reset it.

The reviewer mentions that when the charging begins at Ionity, it initially hits 90kW, then drops down to 79kW and is not able to maintain the charging pace. There are significant differences in range between what the car reports and what the distance traveled is. The car consumes a lot of power. There is no auto brightness function. There is just dumb cruise control.
