Citroen C3 PureTech 100 FWD: what you need to know

Well-argued answers to the most asked questions about this model, based on Caralogy data and simulations.

Where does the C3 PureTech 100 FWD rank in its segment?

Among the 22 city cars 2022–2026, the C3 PureTech 100 FWD ranks 4th of 20 in Combined consumption (5.3 L/100, behind the Skoda Fabia 1.0 TSI 110 7DSG), 16th of 22 in 0–100 km/h (11.0 s, behind the Toyota GR Yaris Morizo Edition).

How much does the C3 PureTech 100 FWD cost to run?

Running costs depend on your profile (mileage, charging type, city/highway mix). Use the Caralogy consumption simulator for a personalised estimate.

Why not a Skoda Fabia 1.0 TSI 110 7DSG instead?

The Skoda Fabia 1.0 TSI 110 7DSG leads in Combined consumption (5.1 L/100 vs 5.3 L/100). The choice depends on your priorities: check the C3 PureTech 100 FWD vs Skoda Fabia 1.0 TSI 110 7DSG duel for a detailed comparison.

How does Caralogy calculate its figures?

Caralogy does not reproduce manufacturer figures: we recalculate every number through physics simulation, starting from SCx, mass and the power curve. This is why our figures at 130 km/h differ from WLTP. Full methodology on the dedicated page.
