Citroën C3 ELLE: Incredibly Comfortable and Efficient Design Choice in the B Segment
Citroën C3 is one of the most comfortable and efficient vehicles in the B Segment, and the ELLE version pays homage to the first issue of ELLE Magazine published on November 21, 1945. With its minimalist design, the signature “Since 1945 and Forever” stands out in simple white letters against a black stripe.
Citroën C3 ELLE offers two color options for the roof – white or black – referencing the colors of the ELLE logo. The black roof represents nobility while the white roof is a symbol of simplicity and purity. Both colors can be combined with body colors such as sand, polar white, steel grey, platinum grey, or glossy black.
Furthermore, the new matte silver-blue color package emphasizes the appeal of C3. The deep glacial blue with metallic accents seamlessly blends with all body colors, giving it a fresh and contemporary look. The Airbump fittings, the headlight extensions on the grille, and the colored accents that surround the roof sticker, perfectly match the new colors of Citroën C3 ELLE.
By introducing a new, previously unknown graphic and urban visuality, Citroën C3 ELLE remains contemporary. Throughout the vehicle’s exterior and interior, the ELLE signature “Since 1945 and Forever” is used in white letters against a black stripe in various locations. The iconic black and white ELLE stripe, representing the classic fashion combination, is used with a powerful font to reflect the period accurately.
The customization goes on in the interior, where the new matte silver-blue color package creates a perfect fit for the ambiance. The Advanced Comfort seats have a two-color scheme where the main upholstery is in light Prussian grey fabric, and the upper part of the backrest is in a dark blue-grey wind grey Alcantara. The brand’s logo with a reinterpreted stripe pattern is printed on the decorative stripe, separating the upper part of the backrest from the rest of the seat with a satin blue accent. The different materials used enhance the quality perception of the interior.
In the ELLE version, Alcantara is used on the center console, which is usually found in premium versions. The matte wind grey contrasts with the metallic blue frame of the color package. Furthermore, the elegant and stylish surface of Alcantara is complemented by a double vertical stitch in blue tones. The ELLE logo, surrounded by a white base color and a black stripe, is clearly visible in the background of the floor mats.
Citroën C3 ELLE offers a unique character with its customizations and modern design. The combination of style and comfort elevates the driving experience in the B Segment.
