If you have a Hype Colorado interior, what colour are your door armrests? It sounds a weird question I know, but I've seen photos/videos where they are tan, and then other examples where they remain black.

I'm interested in buying a new C3 with the Hype Colorado interior, but I would really prefer one with the tan armrests to brighten up those black doors. Also the black armrest material is really scratchy. Not very classy!

Hi wombatattack

I have only seen Hype in the brochure.

'Hype' Colorado Ambiance interior trim on the new Citroen C3 (from an early version of the brochure)
option HYPE colorado ambiance C3 interior
option HYPE colorado ambiance C3 interior
option 'Hype' Colorado Ambiance C3 interior
option 'Hype' Colorado Ambiance C3 interior

BUT

If you look at the C3 Aircross model with 'Hype' Colorado Ambiance, it had black armrests ;)
option HYPE C3 Aircross interior tan
option HYPE C3 Aircross interior tan
But you do get a tan gear selector surround :D

BUT


To make things even less clear, the very latest brochure shows black arm rests on the new C3 :roll:
option hype C3 interior trim tan
option hype C3 interior trim tan
Colorado Ambiance 'Hype' interior trim level Citroen C3 2018

So I haven't answered your question :oops: :oops: :oops: other than the later version of the C3 brochure shows the interior differently than the latest version.

Thanks Arfur Dent for the photos. From what I can see on YouTube only the left-hand drive Hype Colorado C3's have the tan armrests. Bit of a shame that the right hand drive models miss out.
