Safety

Reinforced body structure

In the Citroën C3, you and your passengers couldn’t be better protected against impact. The whole cabin has been made stiffer to allow other, ‘non-inhabited’ areas of the car to crumple.

Airbags

Your safety is a priority with the Citroën C3 – it comes with six airbags as standard on VTR+ trim levels: two front, two lateral and two curtain airbags. The steering column also retracts if there’s an impact from the front. On the VT, there are four airbags as standard and a further two optional curtain airbags.

High-performance brakes

The Citroën C3 works actively to keep you safe. Standard ABS and Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) combine with Emergency Braking Assistance (EBA) to prevent the wheels from locking, while automatic hazard-warning lights come on to warn others. Electronic Stability Programme (ESP) can also be fitted on all trim levels to keep the car on course and prevent skidding when cornering.

Child safety

Your smallest passengers are safe and secure in the Citroën C3. There are anchorage points as standard for fitting Isofix child seats in the back. Child lock controls and indicators are also fitted as standard.
