Citroen DS3 Cabrio Racing Revealed

The Citroen DS3 Cabrio Racing concept is set to be revealed at this weekend’s Goodwood Festival of Speed.

The DS3 Cabrio Racing features the familiar 151kW 1.6-litre four-cylinder engine also found in the rather excellent Citroen DS3 Racing hot-hatch, and Mini John Cooper Works.

Weighing 25kg more than its hatchback counterpart, the DS3 Cabrio Racing features matte grey “textured” paintwork, gloss black 19-inch wheels, black chrome trim and a DS-patterned canvas roof. The car’s brake calipers and wheel hubs are painted in Carmin red.

The Citroen’s interior sports watchstrap-style upholstery in a mix of leather and Alcantara, as well as further Carmin red accents for the dashtop, gearshift and seat stitching.

And don’t assume this isn’t a family car. Citroen has included a matching leather and Alcantara child-seat in the car’s rear.

The Citroen will also be shown at this year’s Frankfurt motor show, along with another hotly anticipated concept, Lamborghini’s Gallardo replacement.

The Citroen DS3 hot-hatch is sold in Australia, though the Racing version was ruled out due to the cost required to conform with Australian Design Rules.
