“The C3 Aircross is a notably stylish new entrant to the small SUV market, both outside and in. However, too much is left to the options list rather than being included as standard.”

“The Citroën C3 Aircross is not particularly rewarding to drive, but it does offer relaxed cruising ability and promising fuel efficiency from a strong range of petrol and diesel engines. Ride comfort is decent, too, while the distinctive interior has lots of kit and useful family-friendly touches.”

“The Citroen C3 Aircross is a comfortable car, soaking up most lumps and bumps with ease. It’s also extremely airy and spacious, with a funkily-styled interior and a big boot. Overall, it’s a very competent and highly likeable family car.”

“More than half of customers go for top-end Shine Plus trim, but the entry-level C3 Aircross is one of the cheapest cars on sale outside of the supermini and city car segments; and at that end of the market, its stand-out styling, generous kit list and impressive cabin flexibility are of far more import than its handling finesse and pace.”

“There aren’t many mainstream cars whose ultimate appeal so strongly rests on the inclinations of the person buying it as the C3 Aircross’s. This little Citroën has a big personality, and if you happen to like that personality it’s sure to take the car a long way in your estimations.”

“This is an appealing, distinctive and well-equipped little SUV. Good value, too. It’s roomy, versatile and rides well – at least for a modern small car. The supple suspension absorbs nasty bumps and pimpled roads, and – surprisingly – it’s more entertaining to drive than the rather anodyne normal C3 hatch.”

“The tweaks on this latest Citroen C3 Aircross might not be hugely significant, but they build on what this crossover already excelled on. With even more comfort on offer than before, as well as additional technology, it’s quite capable of challenging some of the best in this class.”

“The Citroen C3 Aircross is like an East London warehouse conversion – relatively cheap, practical and roomy, but also cool. It doesn’t drive like a tin-roofed storage facility thankfully and the PureTech petrol is peachy if you want a grunty motor that sips fuel.”

“There’s a joy about the Citroën C3 Aircross that you don’t get with most of these small SUV things. It’s different. It’s fun. And it is so while being one of the most practical of the lot – possibly the most practical. And for many, that will be a winning and definitive combination.”

“If you want a crappy little urban crossover MPV car, the Citroën C3 Aircross is good value. And while there’s plenty to annoy you 362 days of the year, it’s brilliant on the three days when we have snow. It is far and away the best off-roader I’ve driven.” (Jeremy Clarkson)

“There are two big caveats with this facelifted C3 Aircross review. First is that it applies only to this Shine Plus model; lower down the range, the Aircross becomes a less compelling proposition. Second is that you have to buy online to get the benefit of a longer warranty.”
