All four variants can be availed with the Sport edition for an extra Rs 21,000.

Sport Edition 

The Sport Edition mostly brings exterior and interior upgrades to the C3. On the outside, the front bumper, bonnet, and roof get new decals. You get to see Sport Edition badging on the front doors and decals all over the body.

On the inside, there are minor but visible updates. You get seat covers and mats with new decals along with sporty pedals and seatbelt cushions. The C3 also gets ambient lighting now. 

While the tech features remain the same, a Tech Kit for an additional Rs 15,000 brings some updates to its decently packed tech suite, including a 10.2-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay/ Android Auto, four speakers, six airbags, and ABS with EBD. The Tech Kit, on the other hand, adds additional features like a wireless charger and a dashcam.

Powertrain 

The Sport edition does not bring any changes to the engine options. The C3 is currently available in two powertrain options, one is a 1.2-litre naturally aspirated motor which makes about 82 hp and 115Nm, and a 1.2-litre turbo-petrol unit, which generates 110 hp and 190Nm, with both engines mated to a manual transmission.

 The latter engine is also available with an automatic transmission that brings up the torque figure to 205Nm.
