The supermini car category has always been about convenience, which is something that French automaker [Citroen](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/citron-ami) seems to believe is perhaps best represented by the ability to customize a vehicle to best suit an individual's use. This is where its brand new Citroen C3 vehicle comes in.

This particular supermini car comes fitted with a range of technologies that enable drivers and passengers to get their multimedia fix when out on the road. [Apple](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/urban-electric-cars) [CarPlay](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nextgeneration-apple-carplay) and Android Auto allows for easy phone connectivity, while the brand new ConnectedCAM system allows drivers to record photos and video from their drives. This is useful for both recreational and legal purposes.

The Citroen C3 model starts at only around $15,100, making it an excellent budget vehicle.
