Citroen has opened orders for a new mild hybrid version of its C3 small car.
The 48V hybrid system allows the car to move on electric power alone at low speeds for short distances.
Compared with a petrol C3, Citroen says the new powertrain, which has 110hp and features a six-speed dual clutch automatic gearbox, delivers a CO2 emission reduction of more than 10%.
Prices for the C3 with the new powertrain start at £20,115 with the Plus equipment grade, and rise to £21,815 with the Max equipment grade.
The mild hybrid model joins existing petrol and electric variants in the C3 line-up.
