The updated model is expected to be called the eC3X, in line with the French brand’s revised naming strategy already introduced in models such as the C3X, Aircross X and Basalt X.The latest teaser suggests that the electric hatchback will receive a noticeable styling refresh. While the overall silhouette is expected to remain familiar, the updated model will feature a redesigned front bumper along with a silver skid-plate styling element. Citroen is also expected to upgrade the lighting package by introducing LED DRLs and LED fog lamps, replacing the simpler setup offered on the current eC3.Other exterior changes may include a new set of dual-tone alloy wheels and redesigned exterior rear-view mirrors with integrated turn indicators. The cabin is also likely to benefit from several feature additions. The automaker may offer a leatherette finish for the steering wheel and parts of the dashboard, along with ambient lighting. Features such as automatic climate control, cruise control with speed limiter, fast-charging USB Type-C ports and auto-dimming inside the rear-view mirror are also expected to be added. The current 10.2-inch touchscreen infotainment system is likely to be carried forward. It is expected to continue to offer wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity. Higher spec variants may also get a 360-degree camera and a new 7-inch fully digital instrument cluster.Under the skin, the updated electric hatchback is not expected to receive any major mechanical changes. The eC3X is likely to retain the current 29.2 kWh battery pack paired with an electric motor that produces 57 PS and 143 Nm of torque. Citroen currently claims a driving range of about 320 km on a single charge, while the top speed is 107 kmph.Once launched, the new Citroen eC3X will continue to compete in India’s growing mass-market electric vehicle space, taking on rivals such as the Tata Punch EV and the newly updated Tiago EV.
