Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Citroen e-C3 X
- Easy to drive: Does not require a learning curve for first-time EV buyers
- Spacious and practical cabin: Good space for four 6-footers and plenty storage options
- Good range: Enough for city driving and some small trips
Mahindra BE 6 SPORTEQ
- Concept car-like styling Stands out and can pull attention away from supercars
- Two battery pack options with an estimated real-world range of 400-500km makes it very usable for long road trips
- Superb infotainment experience: dual 12.3” screens and 16-speaker Harman/Kardon Audio on offer
- The strong safety suite includes well-calibrated L2 ADAS. Works well in Indian conditions

Citroen e-C3 X
- Limited performance: Does not provide an exciting driving experience
- Misses features: Does not get auto AC and push button start
- Hefty price: Huge premium over the standard C3
Mahindra BE 6 SPORTEQ
- Rear seat headroom for tall users and outward visibility for short users could have been better
- Styling is very polarising and may be too over-the-top for some in your family
- Low roof and high step inside makes Ingress egress difficult for the elderly in the family
