The handy one

Very good to drive it's not mine once I drove from my friend's end it felt good and very handy to control the driver felt good and the back seats and good comfortable and well spacious

Base Model, more waiting time

I booked the Kushaq Base Model Classic Variant almost 2 months ago, still on September 1st, 2024, they said that the company is not producing the cars now, and production has not started yet. So long time waiting even after booked earlier at the Indore location.

Nice pricing

Looks are decent in competition to curvv pricing is better And Citroen is one of the best brand famous for its comfort let's hope for the best in how it performs in this Indian market.
