                Pros & Cons

                • Pros
                • Cons
                • Citroen C3

                  • Quirky styling: Grabs eyeballs and has lots of customisation options.
                  • Roomy cabin: Offers good space for two 6-footers to sit behind two 6-footers
                  • Keeps you cool: Air-conditioning is super strong and chills you in no time
                  • Comfortable and confident: Offers a plush ride quality over a variety of roads and remains stable at highway speeds too

                  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
                  • Options: Various personas, special editions and powertrain options mean there’s something for everyone
                • Citroen C3

                  • Fewer automatic variants: No automatic options on offer with the naturally-aspirated petrol engine

                  Tata Nexon

                  • Poor ergonomics: Not enough storage spaces with no usable front cupholders and lack of space for phones/wallets
                  • Fit and finish could be improved in the interior. Misaligned panels take away from the experience
