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 Thar ROXX
- Old-school boxy SUV styling grabs attention and has more road presence than similarly priced SUVs
- Both engines options deliver punchy performance and good driveability even with a full passenger load
- Rich features list: Panoramic sunroof, Harman Kardon audio, powered driver seat, ventilated front seats, and ADAS
- 5/5 start safety rating from Bharat NCAP. Base model is strong on safety too
- Very capable off-road. 4x4 option gives you absolute freedom to explore but even the rear-wheel drive is very capable

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 Thar ROXX
- Ride quality is not as comfortable as cars like the Hyundai Creta, Maruti Grand Vitara or Skoda Kushaq. Bad roads can toss occupants around, especially in the rear seat
- Petrol engine is high on performance but also high on fuel consumption
- No 4x4 petrol option
