2009 Citroen C3 Pluriel Brochure

By 2010, the Pluriel's 1.6-litre petrol engine delivered 120 horsepower through a five-speed manual gearbox, a straightforward powertrain that had proven itself over the model's decade-long run. The convertible-meets-crossover formula remained unchanged: a retractable fabric roof and removable side panels still defined its appeal against conventional city cars and compact SUVs
