Citroen DS3 Review
Performance wise the Citroen DS3 won’t disappoint. The DS3’s delivery of power is one of its major strengths, thanks to a more than capable 1.6 petrol engine and an economically friendly 1.6 diesel engine option. For those who do a vast amount of motorway driving the 1.6 diesel Airdream DStyle model is ideal for the commuter with its impressive mpg consumption of up to 88mpg. If that wasn’t enough it also benefits from exemption from road tax due to its remarkably low Co2 outputs.
Such economic performance of the 1.6 diesel Airdream DStyle model makes this car the perfect option for an image concerned and environmentally charged business fleet. Tie this car in with a company fuel card such as those available via mffuelcards.co.uk and you are sure to please all parties involved.
Power wise the air-dream has a modest 113bhp and a useful 199lb ft of torque which makes it very effective for getting up to speed quickly. The 0-62mph in 9.7 seconds will be adequate for the majority of drivers.
To conclude, overall the car is a bit of a treat to drive and provides a top of the range economy. However, it has entered a very tough market in direct competition with the already well-established brands such as Mini and Fiat. In the grander scheme of things it is a desirable small car for the real world. For those looking for a head turning ride that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg to run the Citroen DS3 1.6 diesel Airdream DStyle model (a bit of a mouthful) will not disappoint.
