Where the Citroen C3X falls short
Not every point below is a serious flaw. Some are mixed opinions where reviewers disagreed, and the label says which.
Fit & finish
Generally negativebased on 8 reviews
“There's a slight rattling noise that I can hear when you're driving on a heavily potholed road... especially I can find it out when I'm driving solo. When the car is empty, I do feel it.”
Rear seat space
Generally negativebased on 7 reviews
“Rear comfort - if someone as tall as me sits in the back, there's an issue. Otherwise a normal person has no issue.”
