    intelligent innovation for you 

    Having driven the Citroen C3 Aircross in Delhi and Noida, I found its unique style and spacious cabin appealing, accommodating a family of four comfortably. However, its performance felt lackluster, especially in terms of acceleration and speed. The fuel efficiency was average, with mileage ranging around 12 km/litre in the city and 14 km/litre on the highway. Safety features like airbags and all-wheel drive add to its reliability. But the absence of a sunroof and limited sports mode options may disappoint some buyers. Overall, a decent choice for urban driving with room for improvement in performance

    Making big impact  

    Having driven the Citroen C3 around Mumbai and Pune, I appreciate its stylish design and comfortable interiors, ideal for a family of four. However, its performance falls short with sluggish acceleration and mediocre fuel efficiency, averaging 12 km/litre in the city and 14 km/litre on the highway. Despite lacking in sports mode and all-wheel drive, the car offers decent safety features like airbags. The lack of keyless entry and sunroof may disappoint some buyers. Overall, a decent option for city drives, but not the most economical choice

    new king on roads 

    My father has been using the Mahindra XUV300 for a few months now, and it's been a mixed experience. While its compact size makes it perfect for city driving, its mileage falls short of expectations. Mahindra claims 17 km/litre, but we're only getting around 14 km/litre in urban areas. However, its peppy performance and comfortable interiors compensate for this downside. Overall, it's a decent option for small families looking for a stylish and comfortable ride within city limits.
