Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Citroen C3
- Quirky styling grabs eyeballs. Lots to customise too.
- Roomy cabin spacious enough for four 6-footers.
- Air-conditioning is super strong. Chills you in no time!
- Comfortable ride quality over a variety of roads. Confident at highway speeds too.
Nissan Kicks
- Quality interior: Quality of material, fit & finish inside the cabin is better than other cars in this segment
- Noise insulation: Engine noise, road noise not as audible inside as in siblings (Captur, Duster, Terrano); lifts cabin experience up
- Mature ride: The ride is supple, but not bouncy. It can handle small and large road uncertainties at any speeds with aplomb
- 360-degree parking assist: Cameras at the front, rear, and both sides give an all-around view to ease parking; segment-first feature
- Powerful new 1.3-litre turbo petrol engine makes 156PS/254Nm

Citroen C3
- No automatic options on offer with the naturally-aspirated petrol engine
- No CNG variants available.
Nissan Kicks
- Ergonomic issues: Driver’s seat set a little high; particularly uncomfortable for tall drivers. Footwell is too cramped
- Feature misses: No light for passenger vanity mirror. Top variant misses out on auto-dimming interior rearview mirror, powered driver seat and sunroof
- No diesel engine option
