Citroën DS3 Racing Limited Edition, the winning team behind five WRC manufacturer’s titles and six driver’s titles for Sébastien Loeb and Daniel Elena, is going to be unleashed at the 2010 Geneva Motor Show. This new Citroën DS3, the limited edition 200hp DS3 developed by Citroën Racing, is completed with some significant developments on the stability and dynamic control.
To achieve additional power output from 156hp to 200hp, increase almost 30% over the standard unit, Citroën have modified and optimized DS3’s powertrain components, tuned the performance of the turbo, and adjusted the mapping of the engine control unit.
Some significant sporting enhancements have also been conducted, this includes creating more precise steering with the control system modified for the new tyres, the fitment of stiffer suspension springs, adapting front and rear shock absorbers, lowering the car, and widening the front and rear tracks. In addition, the ESP has also been adapted for enhanced control.
At the exterior, DS3 is fitted with large 18? alloy wheels, chrome door handles, a chrome-finished exhaust, and a carbon finish around the front bumper, lower body trim and wing extensions.
Production of Citroën DS3 Racing limited editions will be finished in a special workshop and fitted with a parts kit. The production will be limited to just 1000 units and is planned for the second half of 2010.
