Citroën Models To Get These Safety Features As Standard Later This Year

Citroën India has announced that all its models will be getting six airbags as standard from July 2024 onwards. Along with this, all models will also get ISOFIX seat anchorages and seat belt reminders for rear seats. These safety features will be added as standard fitment to all the variants of the C3, eC3, C3 Aircross and C5 Aircross

Aditya Jairaj, MD and CEO, Stellantis India, said “Customers today have evolved to understand safety as an equally important requirement as driving comfort and feature. At Citroën, we continuously evaluate and react to consumer requirements with speed to meet their evolving needs. The safe mobility ambition of the brand will continue to push our team to provide the highest level of protection, drive quality and value to our customers.” 

In addition to the front airbags, the Citroën models will also get side airbags and curtain airbags. Interestingly, the C5 Aircross already has six airbags and ISOFIX mounts as standard, so it will only see the addition of seat belt reminders for the rear seats. Currently, the C3, eC3 and the C3 Aircross only get dual front airbags as standard across the range. 

Furthermore, Citroën is expected to launch the C3X compact sedan in India later this year. Since the brand has committed to having these safety features as standard across the range, the C3X will also likely have them at launch.
