An Interior Inspired by Dynamic Nature
A special edition of the new "C3," which arrived last year, now features a stylish interior.
The inspiration for this design comes from the dynamic and vast natural landscapes carved by the Colorado River in the Midwestern United States. Reflecting this, light brown synthetic leather, reminiscent of the Grand Canyon, is used as an accent, creating an interior unlike that of the standard model.
Additionally, the door handles are designed to evoke the look of handbag straps. The handles also feature a two-tone finish, with the light brown color effectively incorporated throughout.
The base model is the "Shine" trim, which includes features such as a rearview camera and the "Connected CAM," allowing photos and videos taken while driving to be shared via a smartphone app. The 1.2-liter inline 3-cylinder turbo engine produces a maximum output of 81 kW (110 ps) and a maximum torque of 250 Nm. It is driven in an FF layout through a 6-speed automatic transmission (EAT6). As a special equipment feature, the car is fitted with large, two-tone 17-inch wheels.
Body colors are available in three combinations: Almond Green with a Pearl White roof (green x white), a Banquise White body with a Aden Red roof (white x red), and a Ruby Red body with a Onyx Black roof (red x black).
The price is 2,520,000 yen, an increase of 90,000 yen over the base model.
