Featuring all the qualities inherited from the C3 saloon, the C3 Pluriel is a highly versatile car, whatever the configuration. Its advanced technology, safety and equipment place it on a par with the best saloons in its category. |
The C3 Pluriel is the first saloon to win a prize as a cabriolet. Starting off in the guise of a 3-door saloon, the C3 Pluriel can morph into a C3 Pluriel Panoramic Saloon, a C3 Pluriel Cabriolet, a C3 Pluriel 4-seater Spider or, last, a C3 Pluriel Spider Pick-up.
A unique car with a host of configurations, the C3 Pluriel heralds a new phase in modular vehicle design through its ability to change shape at will. The soft top folds down fully onto the rear window to create a “roof cartridge” that retracts fully into the bottom of the rear compartment. This simple manual operation takes just a few seconds.
The driver simply retracts the electrically controlled soft top, opens the rear window and tailgate, unlocks the module made up of the folded soft top, rear window and parcel shelf (referred to collectively as the roof cartridge), and slides it into the stowage compartment at the back of the boot.
This manœuvre is facilitated by the presence of balancing cylinders, which accompany the rotary movement of the cartridge.
Installing the removable boot floor protects the roof cartridge. The upper part of the boot can then be safely used. |
