Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Which is the best choice: Maruti Celerio or Renault Kwid?
  • Both cars are good in their own forte. The Maruti Celerio does a lot of things right. It will be a great first car thanks to its easy-to-drive nature. Another strong point of the Celerio is the torquey 1-liter petrol engine that feels at home not only in the city but also out on the highway. The low-speed ride is comfortable and the spacious cabin makes it a genuine four-seater even for tall people. The features list, too, is long enough. On the other hand, Kwid is offered a choice of two petrol engines - a 54PS 0.8-litre unit and a 68PS 1.0-liter option. While the smaller unit is only available with a 5-speed manual gearbox, the bigger engine can also be had with a 5-speed AMT Renault Kwid has got it right with its looks, features, and comfort to be your first or daily city car. However, the driving experience leaves a bit to be desired. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test drive before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.
Q. Which variant is best in Celerio?
  • As expected from the entry-level variant of an affordable compact hatchback, the Celerio LXi only offers the absolute basics. You get dual front airbags, manual AC, and engine idle start/stop as standard. If this is your maximum budget, the base-spec Celerio is worth considering for its overall package, which includes that frugal petrol engine and a spacious boot. The VXi offers the basics like central locking, power windows, manual AC, power-adjustable ORVMs, manual (day and night) inside rearview mirror, and wheel covers for the 14-inch steelies. The Celerio VXi also offers a split-folding rear seat for added practicality, and the body-coloured ORVMs and door handles make it look a lot better than the base variant. The ZXi offers an audio system with Bluetooth, steering-mounted audio controls, tilt-adjustable steering, and remote keyless entry. The ZXi even gets a rear window washer and wiper and a rear defogger for extra safety in inclement weather. This top-spec variant offers all the features you’d need to enjoy the second-gen Celerio. The ZXi trim comes with a height-adjustable driver’s seat, power-folding ORVMs, and push-button engine start/stop. You also get a well-integrated touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, along with other Smartplay Studio features. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test drive before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details.
  • New variant is the best for look like premium car
  • Vxi petrol with company fitted accesories

    Citroen C3 Aircross: French Flair with Practical C 

    After clocking over 5,000 kilometers in my Citroen C3 Aircross it is been a mixed bag of French flair and practical challenges. Its 1.2 liter turbo petrol engine offers adequate performance posting around 110 PS and the ride comfort is quite good with well tuned suspension handling India's varied destination effectively. Its price tag feels a bit unfair considering the features and space limitations. The C3 Aircross is a bold attempt but a few improvements could really boost its appeal to the Indian market.

    Citroen C3 Aircross: French Flair Meets Practicali 

    Having driven the Citroen C3 Aircross for a few months now it is quirky design and comfort focused drive stand out. The suspension is tuned to iron out most road imperfections typical of Indian roads making every journey smoother. It is large interior with a cleverly designed boot allows for sufficient luggage a advantage for family outings. One unsatisfied point though is the engine noise under hard acceleration which becomes pronounced somewhat taking away from the otherwise quite cabin experience. The lack of some advanced safety features which are becoming standard in competing brands is also felt.

    feel the breeze at every mile 

    Citroen C3 Aircross is a family-friendly car model and is my favourite. It is a compact yet spacious car and has a good seating capacity that is also very comfortable for the passengers. It has manual transmission and good mileage. The price range is very affordable and promises a great performance. The maintenance is quite manageable and service cost is average. I have had one of my best driving experiences with this car model.

    taking to your destiny 

    The Citroen C3 Aircross is mainly known for its looks it stands out with its unique and bold design, featuring split headlights and two-tone paint options (head-turning exterior). Talking about the performance the 1.2-liter turbo engine offers good pick-up and nice performance, perfect for city driving .The spacious cabin with comfortable seats provides me a pleasant ride, even on long journeys (great for families). Good ground clearance handles rough roads well. It only lacks on the advance features thats why it is not loved by my childrens .

    Indian roads 

    This car never disappoints on indian roads.This car is spacious for 4 tall adults making it convenient for passengers at the back.It has good under thigh support.Visibility for the driver is good and steering is quite good and responsive.Interiors could have been more modern.For an average indian road driving conditions the mileage it offers is excellent.This car surely gives the required throttle when gas peddle it hit, Giving you confidence at the corners and while overtaking with sparingly noticeable vibrations when revved.Breaking is average.In short, This can be considered as a daily driver in cities and to have a comfortable country side rides for a small family.

    One of the best entry level hatch back car.Value for money, Easy on pocket, 20+ mileage on petrol, Minimal vibrations (evident but it gives thrill) good resale value, Fun to drive.What else one could expect under 6 lakhs.After sale service is satisfactory as service centres may charge you unnecessary sometimes.
