Overview
The eC3X is Citroen's electric hatchback for India — a 2026 update of the earlier eC3 with a larger battery and more range, sold in three trims (Live, Live (O), Shine).
It carries a 29.2 kWh battery for a claimed MIDC range of 325 km, with a front-mounted motor producing 57 hp and 143 Nm — modest figures reflecting its position as one of the more affordable electric cars on this site. Like MG's Windsor and Comet, it's also offered under a Battery-as-a-Service plan that cuts the upfront price significantly in exchange for a per-km battery rental fee.
Range figures are claimed, test-cycle numbers, not a guaranteed real-world figure — see real-world vs claimed range for why the two differ.
