                Pros & Cons

                • Pros
                • Cons
                • Citroen Basalt

                  • Unique SUV coupe design grabs attention.
                  • Well shaped massive boot can take multiple large suitcases with ease.
                  • Rear seat sets benchmark in terms of comfort which makes it a great chauffeur-driven car.

                  Tata Nexon

                  • Futuristic design with interesting details: LED daytime running lamps and tail lamps with animations, 16-inch alloy wheels, and full-LED headlamps. Gives it great road presence.
                  • Has every imaginable feature: panoramic sunroof, front seat ventilation, 360° camera, leatherette upholstery. Feels premium.
                  • Impressive infotainment package: 10.25-inch touchscreen, 10.25-inch driver’s display and a brilliant JBL sound system.
                  • Available with petrol and diesel engines, both offered with automatic transmissions.
                • Citroen Basalt

                  • Missing premium features such as leather seats, push button engine start, powered driver seat and sunroof.
                  • No premium soft-touch materials in the cabin.
                  • Lacks sporty engine performance as compared to rivals.

                  Tata Nexon

                  • Interior storage space is poor. No cupholders, lack of space for phones/wallets hampers everyday usability.
                  • Fit and finish could be improved in the interior. Misaligned panels take away from the experience.
