Pros Cons of Citroen C3

Pros

  • Ride and handling is great
  • Engine is refined and shows good performance
  • Cabin is spacious

Cons

  • Does not get an automatic gearbox
  • Not big on features
  • Long travel of the clutch

Verdict

The Citroen C3 presents a mix of attributes that garner both appreciation and critique. However, what truly sets it apart in the competitive market is its pricing strategy. Citroen has strategically positioned the C3 with aggressive pricing, disrupting the segment and capturing attention. Despite the notable absence of an automatic transmission option, which might be seen as a significant drawback by some, the C3 still manages to distinguish itself. Its combination of features, coupled with its attractive pricing, makes it a standout choice for customers looking for value in their vehicle purchase.

Pros Cons of Maruti Suzuki Celerio

Pros

  • Excellent Mileage
  • Above-Average Safety
  • Affordability

Cons

  • Lackluster Performance
  • Less Powerful Than Rivals
  • Lack Of Features

Verdict

The new-gen Celerio charms you with the space, engine refinement and even the ride quality it has to offer, and even the price in fact because it is very competitive. But does it go the extra mile to convince you that it's the one to go for. From where we stand not really, because more could have been done, especially on the safety and features. However, the Celerio will still sell by the dozens and that's because of the value offering it has, may it be in the service department or brand equity.
