To mark its 108th anniversary, Citroën India has officially introduced the Basalt X Comfort Edition at an introductory price of ₹8.75 lakh (ex-showroom). The special package is designed to enhance feature density on lower variants of the coupe-SUV, adding high-demand cabin upgrades without a steep premium.
Building on the formula previously rolled out on the Aircross X, the Basalt becomes the second vehicle in Citroën India’s lineup to adopt the Comfort Edition nomenclature. Below, we break down the specific feature additions, powertrain pairings, and variant-wise price adjustments.
The Comfort Edition isn't a mechanical upgrade but a feature and interior enhancement package that adds a more premium feel to the Basalt X's base and mid-spec variants.
Key Additions Include:
Metropolitan Beige Leatherette Seat Upholstery: Uplifts the interior ambience and gives the cabin a more upmarket feel.
Comfort AXS Packs: These are curated accessory bundles available on the You and Plus variants. Depending on the variant, buyers get:
10.25-inch Android-based Touchscreen Infotainment System
JBL Premium Audio System
Wireless Phone Charger
Dual Dashcams with Predictive Safety Alerts
Rearview Camera
