  • HUGE 470-litre boot space
  • Will accommodate a whole lot more than just a weekend’s worth of luggage easily.
Maruti Ciaz
  • Spacious
  • comfortable and feels premium. Second row leg room can shame cars from many segments above it.
Citroen Basalt
  • Bare basic feature list - Sunroof
  • cruise control
  • push-button start stop are sorely missed; 1.2-litre turbo petrol engine does not feel refined
  • Automatic gearbox is slow to respond.
Maruti Ciaz
  • Only 2 airbags in even the top Alpha model. No sunroof which it's rivals have.Not the most inspiring to drive
