Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Citroen C3
- Quirky styling grabs eyeballs. Lots to customise too.
- 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.
Tata Tiago EV
- Most affordable electric four-wheeler you can buy.
- 200kms real-world range is enough for daily commutes
- Feature loaded: touchscreen, climate control, leatherette upholstery — the works!
- Sport Mode is fun to drive

Citroen C3
- No automatic options on offer with the naturally-aspirated petrol engine
- No CNG variants available.
Tata Tiago EV
- Silly misses such as alloy wheels, rear-adjustable headrests.
- The small battery pack option is not very practical
- Regular Drive Mode feels a bit too laid-back.
