With the new C3, Citroën reaffirms its desire to offer accessible cars while retaining original features and top-of-the-range comfort, essential values of the brand. This strategy seems to be paying off: in January 2025, the Citroën C3 was the best-selling car in France and has won numerous awards, especially for its electric version. The latest title: the new ë-C3 has just been named "Best Value for Money Electric Car" at the DrivingElectric Awards 2025 in the United Kingdom.
More recognition for the ë-C3!
The new Citroën ë-C3 has won the 'Best Value Electric Car' award at the DrivingElectric Awards 2025. This accolade reinforces the appeal of the model, which has already won several awards including 'Car of the Year' and 'Affordable Electric Car of the Year' at the Auto Express New Car Awards 2024 and 'Best Small Electric Car' at the CarBuyer Awards 2025. The ë-C3 was also a finalist in the European Car of the Year Awards 2025.
Judges in this competition praised its affordable price without compromising on features and comfort. Paul Barker, editor-in-chief of DrivingElectric, said: "The new Citroën ë-C3 isn't revolutionary; it's just a simple, well-equipped electric car that won't cost you a fortune. What's not to love?" "Greg Taylor, Managing Director of Citroën UK, added: "We are delighted that the new ë-C3 has once again been recognised for its affordability. It underlines Citroën's commitment to making electrification accessible, with the UK's widest range of electric vehicles at the most affordable prices".
A model celebrated by the media and the public.
This latest award adds to the long list of accolades the C3 has received since its launch. Proof that Citroën has hit the mark with this fourth generation, which combines accessibility and comfort. Despite the production delays at the start of its launch, which have been resolved since September 2024, the model has continued to grow. At the end of 2024, its sales in Europe increased significantly, culminating in January 2025 with the first place in sales in France. A trend that seems to be confirmed in February.
With the new C3, Citroën has taken up the challenge of making the electric car accessible without compromising on comfort and equipment. Its commercial success and the awards it has won confirm the interest of the media and the public. Could this be the start of a new era of growth for the brand with the chevrons?
