How much would you pay for the Citroen eC3?

[@vaibhav8941]

450 km real world range = 10 lac, 200 km = 5 lac

[@appanji]

9.99 lac due to lack of features

[@Chiku....300]

100000

[@203deepak]

9 lakhs on road only

[@Satya11290]

950000 on road

[@gopalakrishnant-qy8ik]

Reverse camera can be added as an accessory on pre booking

Like you mentioned some consumers are not exactly restricted by price, which is true
They should at least bring in an up-spec variant with the automatic climate control, hill hold assist and cruise control
Since torque in eC3 is more than Tiago, that would be helpful in climbing inclines, where the latter struggles

[@sagar1323]

Hi. Did you find the Tiago EV struggling on inclines?

[@NalinKhurb]

@@sagar1323 Hey, no I have not driven it but initial videos did demonstrate this shortcoming (in the normal driving mode)

[@prozac1127]

With the fact you have lesser maintenance and you get tax refund on interest paid during emi the price difference becomes 1 lakh down from 3.5 lakhs compared to ice version.
if you look at Alto automatic ICE and MG comet which are both similar in weight and features. The price difference is 46k after the subsidiary etc. Which is about 400 litres of petrol or 6000km only.
Both cars will be very useful in ones garage.

When will real world range test video come??

[@CarWale]

As soon as we get our hands on it in Mumbai

[@jassimostspecial1248]

Haven't tried on highway, also drove in Delhi traffic in last 20 days..though never exhausted complete battery but basis the calculation with AC running 90% journey in city giving range of 200 and if with 50-60 % on AC its giving 245 range

[@jassimostspecial1248]

Indeed a great car driving since last 15 days, it is simply awesome

This car has tobechsrged every 180 km,I covered 2500kmst atstretch in 10 days I had charge 14 times time loss I had stay overnight the average charging cost rs 28 per unit and I got only 6.5 m per kw,,recharging is very bad in long run,full charge 230km but at 60 km the charge warning comes and at 30km range the percentage is o,now only 30km left ,very risky so we charge at 30km,so 230-30=200 ,but we may get a fast charger before that so it is 180km each charger,good ride and handling,best fr short drives max 400km up and down

The Citroen eC3 is not designed to be driven long distances at all. It is supposed to be a city car
