Rahul Kalvapalle — April 2, 2014 — Autos
The Citroen’s DS3 Cabrio Racing is a sports car built for the real world.
The car has a turbocharged 1.6-liter engine delivering racetrack-like performance with 207 horsepower. It can zoom from zero to 100 km/h in only 6.5 seconds and can hit a top speed of 233 km/h.
The Citroen DS3 Cabrio Racing is the result of several modifications made to previous editions of the DS3 Cabrio line of cars. The front and rear suspensions have been modified and the car has been lowered by 15 mm. Its front and rear tracks have been widened by 30 mm and its brakes have been upgraded. A modified steering control system allows for improved steering.
If you’re hoping to get your hands on one of these sleek and practical sports cars, you’ll need to act quick— Citroen plans to manufacture only 100 units, which will go for $46,000.
