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
Tata Tigor EV
- City performance: Electric performance offers immediate acceleration and quick overtakes in the city
- Usable range: 170-220 km of realistic range makes it a solid city commuter
- Comfortable ride quality: soaks up undulations and speed breakers really well
- Covers all functional equipment: Electric ORVMs, cruise control, power windows, and auto AC
- 8-speaker sound system offers a good music experience
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
Tata Tigor EV
- Outdated infotainment package: 7-inch touchscreen feels old to use with slow response times and wired Android Auto and Apple CarPlay connectivity
- Silly feature omissions: alloy wheels, rear AC vents, rear-adjustable headrests
- Range / battery percentage read-outs could’ve been calibrated for more accuracy
- Paddle shifters for changing regen modes would be more intuitive than using the button on the dashboard
- Looks: Both exterior and interior have started to feel dated. Limited (3) exterior colour options don’t help its case either
- Only packs dual airbags, even in the top-spec variant
