Customers can place their orders on Citroen's official website in the country and will sell it here through its 51 La Maison showrooms across 46 cities.

Additionally, the SUV is more than 90% localised and designed in India to cater to the varied needs of Indian consumers.

There are three variants on offer – You, Plus and Max –and in 5 and 5+2 seating configurations. The 5+2 configuration, however, is only for the Plus and Max trims. This arrangement is essentially two individual seats in the third row and these can be removed in only 20 minutes.

At ₹9.99 lakh, the You variant is the cheapest, while Plus comes for ₹11.34 lakh (5-seater) and ₹11.69 lakh (5+2). Max, on the other hand, is available for ₹11.99 lakh (5-seater) and ₹12.34 lakh (5+2).

Buyers must, however, note that these rates are only introductory; i.e., these could be hiked in the coming days.
