The Citroen Basalt is a compact SUV-coupe that is built on Citroen's C-Cubed platform. The same platform even underpins the C3 and Aircross models in the carmaker’s lineup.
This means it shares many components with its siblings, including the 1.2-liter turbocharged petrol engine and various structural elements. The Basalt offers a more stylish look with a sloping coupe-like roofline, squared-out wheel arches, and a lowered ground clearance.
