Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Citroen eC3
- Easy to drive for first-time car buyers
- Spacious and practical cabin
- Best driving range in its segment
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 eC3
- Does not provide an exciting driving experience
- Some basic features like powered ORVMs missing
- Huge premium over the standard C3
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
