              • Cons
              • Citroen C3

                • Roomy cabin spacious enough for four 6-footers.
                • Air-conditioning is super strong. Chills you in no time!
                • Comfortable ride quality over a variety of roads. Confident at highway speeds too.

                Nissan Magnite

                • Use of soft touch leatherette padding on all touch points makes the cabin feel a lot more premium
                • Safety kit has been improved by the availability of 6 airbags from the base-spec variant
                • It has one of the best performing CVTs under Rs 10 lakh
                • In its segment, it has one of the most spacious rear seats

              • Citroen C3

                • No automatic options on offer with the naturally-aspirated petrol engine
                • No CNG variants available.

                Nissan Magnite

                • Turbo-petrol engine is not so refined which results in vibrations that can be felt in the footwell, on the steering wheel, and on the seats
                • While the leatherette padding makes the cabin feel more premium, the flimsy AC knobs, and panel gaps have a negative impact on the overall cabin experience
                • The feature list still feels pretty small and no major additions were made with the facelift
                • The 360-degree camera has a grainy feed which is very hard to see in low light conditions
