A special variant – Citroen C3 Aircross Dhoni Edition has been launched in India. The French carmaker wants to leverage the star power that MS Dhoni brings to the table. Remember, they have hired the former captain as Citroen’s brand ambassador for India recently. It wants to capitalize on the popularity of cricket and the unparalleled fame of MS Dhoni. Note that there will only be 100 units of this limited edition model. That could persuade potential buyers and cricket lovers to go for the mid-size SUV. Let us take a look at the details here.
Citroen C3 Aircross Dhoni Edition Launched
The Citroen C3 Aircross Dhoni Edition comes with a few distinct aesthetic enhancements to set it apart from the regular models. These include Dhoni decals, colour-coordinated seat covers, cushion pillows, seat belt cushions, illuminated sill plates and a front dashcam. Hence, there are some useful amenities which will remind you that this is a special edition model whether you are starting at the SUV from the outside, or enjoying the comfort of the cabin on the inside. Additionally, Citroen is also offering special Dhoni goodies in the glove box. All these 100 units will carry the exclusive glove signed by Dhoni himself.
Speaking on this occasion, Mr. Shishir Mishra, Brand Director of Citroen India, said, “We are thrilled to unveil the exclusive ‘Dhoni Edition’ of the C3 Aircross, available in a limited run of only 100 units. Our brand ambassador Dhoni epitomizes resilience, leadership, and excellence—qualities that align perfectly with Citroën’s dedication to delivering outstanding experiences. This rare, limited edition is a unique tribute to Dhoni’s legendary journey, offering an unparalleled opportunity for fans to own a piece of automotive history. Don’t miss your chance to be one of the few to experience this extraordinary collaboration!”
Specs and Price
The Citroen C3 Aircross comes with a 1.2-litre turbo petrol mill which produces a decent 110 PS and 190 Nm with a 6-speed manual gearbox and 110 PS and 205 Nm of peak power and torque with the 6-speed torque converter automatic gearbox. What is, sort of, a party trick with the C3 Aircross is the fact that there are removable seats in the third row. However, these are compact units which is why they are categorized as 5+2 rather than a 7-seater. In any case, it offers added practicality for specific occasions. The Citroen C3 Aircross Dhoni Edition has a price tag of Rs 11.82 lakh, ex-showroom. In the regular version, the prices range from Rs 9.99 lakh to Rs 14.11 lakh, ex-showroom.
