- Spacious 5-seater variant with class leading boot space.
- Usable 3rd of seats with cupholders and USB chargers
- Very comfortable over bad and broken roads.
- Turbo-petrol engine offers good drivability both in city and highways

Citroen C3
- Quirky styling grabs eyeballs. Lots to customise too.
- Roomy cabin spacious enough for four 6-footers.
