Citroen eC3 is now available in Nepal.

Shangrila Motors, the authorized distributor of Citroen cars in Nepal, has officially launched the all-new top-end Shine variant of its affordable electric SUV.

It has been a while since the Citroen eC3 was available for purchase in Nepal. This is not a fresh new launch, but rather a variant refresh based on market demand.

The Citroen eC3 Shine variant includes additional features like Electrically Adjustable Wing Mirrors, a Rear Parking Camera, 15-inch Diamond-cut Alloy Wheels, a Rear Wiper Washer, a Rear Defogger, Faux Skid Plates, and a Leather-Wrapped Steering Wheel.

It is based on the Citroen C3, sharing similar design language and features. However, the new eC3 is an electric SUV, replacing the ICE with a 42kW electric motor and a 29.2kWh battery.

What is the Price of Citroen eC3 in Nepal?

Citroen eC3 price in Nepal is Rs. 35.99 Lakhs for the top-end Shine variant only.

Interestingly enough, the two eC3 variants (Feel with Vibe Pack and Live) will no longer be available for the Nepali market. Instead, Citroen Nepal will now focus on Shine variant.

Despite the new EV budget update, Citroen Nepal will continue to offer the eC3 Shine at the pre-budget price of Rs. 35.99 Lakhs until the stock lasts.

This means that there will be a 5-10% price increase for the next Citroen eC3 lot.

Previous Citroen eC3 variants had several cost-cutting measures in the overall build to maintain an aggressive price. However, the eC3 Shine improves on this by incorporating practical features while still maintaining the aggressive price tag.
