Citroen C3 PureTech promotion, why it is convenient and why not

Not only hybrids: January offers also include vehicles with traditional engines. Take Citroen, and the recently revamped Citroen C3: on petrol models there are various offers.

As usual, the house offers the simple discount on the price list, the long-term rental or the classic financing with mini installments and final installment: we see the latter option on a C3 Feel with the 83 HP 1.2 PureTech.

With the initial discount, the price list drops from 15,600 to 10,650 euros, thanks to offers from the house and 2021 state funding of 1,500 euros in case of scrapping of a vehicle registered before 1 January 2011, while funds are exhausted. Thanks to the low amount thus obtained, there is no advance payment, and the installments are 47 of 139.48 euros (TAN 5.49%, APR 7.42%).

Alternatively, and optionally, the installment can increase to 151.83 euros, if you want the PerfettoPiù credit insurance. At the end, there is the maxi installment of 6,553.50 euros, with a maximum limit of 40,000 kilometers.

Advantages

The C3 with this engine can make it possible to achieve good savings even without the aid of the hybrid. Compatibly with the period, it is a good thing that there is no advance payment, and even the installment of less than 140 euros is quite interesting.

Among other things, the Feel set-up is not the basic one, but is immediately superior: among other offers, the C3 Live access model, with the same engine, is offered for 9,900 euros without financing.

Disadvantages

To evaluate the usual financial burdens compared to the figures in the example, and also the rapid exhaustion of state funds for non-electrified models.

The limit of 10,000 km per year is indicated for mainly urban use; pity that for credit insurance you have to pay something more, even if the cost is still distributable on the installment.

In summary
