At last, after much waiting, the French firm Citroen presents its new and awaited S3 , a model that caused a lot of expectations last year in Paris , and just now See you in your production version.
This model is the first link, a new product line called DS (the name of the legendary model of the signature). The new S3 is the interpretation of luxury Citroen , where you will follow later DS4 and DS5 . It measures 3.95 m long, 1.71 m wide and 1.45 m high. The signature is present in society in the Frankfurt Motor , next month.
In the images appreciate a car that really interesting and very appealing. Its design and overall aesthetic has much to do with his brother, the new C3 , where unlike this, the S3 is directed to a much higher market, where is also the Mini , and Fiat 500 , despite not having much to do in several respects.
In general it could compete on equal terms with these two models, but the problem of it is that is a Citroen (a firm that specializes in luxury cars), and has no long history as the two models tell you about previously.
On the front is seen that the S3 is heavily loaded (in my view) in the figure a large grill, chrome double chevron, a large optical, rompeniebla lights and LEDs, and the new logo DS . Overall is heavy, but each of these things they are really very interesting comment and praise from the French model.
On the side we see a breathtaking tires, large chrome underneath a window with a cut rather peculiar, and a B-pillar cut that is very rare.
And in the back are seen some great optics, a towering exhaust outlets, and the new logo of this model (which is also rare indeed).
Inside there is a great quality with a style similar to Mini . This highlights the clocks, steering wheel, seats and center console with an incredible onboard computer. The body color option form, Black Onyx, White opals, Botticelli Blue and Red Carme.
The engine would consist of two diesel and three petrol. The diesel is the 1.6-liter HDI of 90 and 110 hp, and gasoline will be 95, 120 and 155 hp, all with manual gearbox five or six speeds, and in the case of engines of 120 and 155 CV may also be coupled to an automatic transmission.
The emsiones be 99 g / km CO2 for the more economical version. In the case of the HDi these did not reach the 115 g / km of CO2 and gasoline with this value will range between 136 and 160 g / km.
