Citroen brought a striking debut to the São Paulo auto show: the Basalt Vision concept. It builds on the production Basalt but leans much harder into a sporty look. The coupe-crossover wears a full body kit with broader bumpers, black plastic cladding all around, signature decals, and a sizable roof spoiler.The Vision’s key difference is its lowered stance and new two-tone 18-inch wheels, with red brake calipers peeking through. The result is a more planted silhouette that makes the concept notably more aggressive than the Basalt X familiar to the Indian market. The makeover flatters the Basalt’s proportions, giving it the attitude the regular car only hints at.Citroen has yet to disclose the Vision’s technical specs, but the production Basalt offers two gasoline engines: a naturally aspirated 1.2 with a five-speed manual and a 1.2 turbo available with a six-speed manual or an automatic. Even without the numbers, the intent is clear.
