As if the 200bhp offered by the standard hot hatch unveiled at the Paris Motor Show wasn"t enough for most serious enthusiasts, the JAS Motorsport-tuned racing Type R pumps out a colossal 240bhp.
Citroen"s answer is...
Citroen"s answer is to bring the C3 in line with the rest of its range, with a bigger, more prominent badge. The double chevron has been incorporated into the front grille. Beneath there"s also a bold lower air intake, while the rear end is finished off by bright new tail-lights.
The car"s cabin is also being revamped, so build quality will be boosted with the use of improved materials. The engine range is unlikely to change, featuring 1.1, 1.4 and 1.6-litre petrol units, alongside the 1.4-litre HDi diesel. All are available with five-speed manual and SensoDrive semi-automatic transmissions. The new car will debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September.
