When he ran away with the backseat 😂

one of the best car reviews I have ever seen in terms of the amount of useful information you pack into 14 minutes.

Watch many C3s start missing their backseats😂😂😂

Does the new Indian-built Citroen C3 offer enough to be a great budget car option?

They are trying, at that price they are in the game, you just have to be aware of what you are getting for your money.

Good useable review this looks like a decent budget car option for someone who wants something different.

Such a great review! All within 15min. No nonsense info. Thanks a lot! Very useful.

The Citroen C3 is an EXCELLENT option for an small City crossover, but there's one main handicap - There's no CVT or Automatic transmission😢. Rest all is excellent. Citroen better needs to make auto climate control, sunroof and CVT available in all trims. Then it's an real hot cake and winner 🎉🎉🎉🎉

And it ceases to be budget. If they are charging this for what is on offer now, for all those bells and whistles your advocating for the price will easily go above 300k, at that point its in a different market that it cant make an impact.

Nice review Ash. Uhm the C3 has the correct “urban” criteria but ther are features they could have included but then again the price will shoot up. But electric windows and mirrors has to be standard in 2023! As for the dash, no Mann Citroen looks like a Renault kwid😂 I think I’ll look at a Suzuki but this looks better than competitors just some things lacking 😢😊

Another great review, relaxed, concise and informative.

Sad that we're no longer getting a proper European C3. The Euro one was next level but probably double the price.

Great review. No stability control and not isofix points for a chilled seat 😬 is a deal breaker for many.

Yes!! I totally agree. This makes the C3 name look bad. The C3 was meant to be a premium small hatch to an extent that competes with the Polo, 208, Corsa, Clio etc. Not this.

@ishakemyhead799

Жыл бұрын

Agree as well. The “real” C3 looks different, so it creates some confusion, this one should not share the nameplate with a higher end model

😭😭 you come back your backseat is gone. Either than that this is a great budget car worth a consideration no doubt

So many options in Mzansi, pricing is key

What is the status of Citroen in SA at the moment?

So this car is what happens when a premium brand starts to go the budget route, you can see where the focus was, in this case it was tech, which appeals to the young people who would buy a car like this. The manual wing mirrors is bad, but a lack of stability control is dealbreaker as that gives you better control especially at higher speeds and can also help you get out of a situation when you have wheel slip. If however youre more concerned with screen size and infotainment features and digital dashboard availability at budget prices then this is the car for you. On a side note its nice to see that Citreons moves in India are starting to pay off with exports out of India. Their strategy is to make India a local production hub which means that only parts made in India will be put in the cars.

Being a tall person in the back of that car seems to be a surefire way of getting whiplash if the car gets hit from behind. It doesn't seem as if those headrests are adjustable?

They are one-piece seats so the headrests are not adjustable

What about life quality for 10 years apart thanks for the information sir

The front looks so similar to the KWID and the placement of the rear electric window switches is same as that of the CELERIO Both Suzuki and Renault have the 5 year wsrranties Almost looks like it's a mixture of Renault n Suzuki with a Citroen badge

As for running away with the seat 😂

A great review and nice looking car. This would sell well in the UK but unfortunately we don't get this style. We get a C3 hatch and Aircross mini suv but in my eyes they don't look as good.

I don't think this is meant for Europe or the UK. None of the Indian built cars are. They're sent to us and Brazil because clearly we have no safety minimums lol. ESP should be standard. The Euro C3 is a much better and more substantial product but will be doubly the price probably.

Each section of the world has a few journalists who vote for the world car of the year. We have an article on our site about it. There are about 8 categories

These vehicles are top heavy for their size, their wheel and body structures according to weigh ratio. Are problematic especially in making tight turns and when loaded. The same goes for smaller Nissans.

Super unreliable, bought one a month ago and it's already dead , stwitches off while driving and refusing to start not even 1000km on the clock

This car is dead on arrival even in India where it is made.

This car is a MEGA FLOP in India. Hardly sells 700unit per month!
