The Spec'd take

Why it stands out

  • 4-star Bharat NCAP rating (2024) for both adults and children
  • Turbo-petrol offered with both manual and automatic gearboxes, real flexibility

Worth knowing

  • Base variant is manual-only, no automatic option at the entry price
  • Coupe-SUV roofline trades some rear headroom for styling

Source Notes / Discrepancies

Source Notes First mass-market coupe SUV from Citroën India, featuring unique adjustable rear thigh support and 470L boot space. Sourced from Citroën India and Autocar India. Colour list corrected to CarDekho's 5-name set with hex (Polar White, Perla Nera Black, Steel Grey, Cosmos Blue, Garnet Red, plus dual-tone black-roof options on White and Red); the previous list's 'Platinum Grey' was not confirmed and has been replaced with Perla Nera Black, which a genuine citroen.in photo confirms. Photo check 30 Sep 2026: citroen.in's Basalt model page publishes one official side-profile studio cut-out in Perla Nera Black on a white background, used here as hero, exterior and that colour's image; a separate promotional front-angle shot on the same page has a decorative Holi-colour splash backdrop and was not used per this project's rules. The page's colour visualiser widget links to Citroen C4 (a different, international market model) images under Basalt Red/Blue/Gray/Green labels, so it was not used as a photo source; no other official per-colour Basalt cut-outs could be found, so the remaining 4 colours' image ids are left empty.

Colours & Warranty

Colours Available Polar White, Perla Nera Black, Steel Grey, Cosmos Blue, Garnet Red (dual-tone black-roof options also offered on White and Red)
