Most Helpful Review

Citroen EC3 Value for money

Citroen needs to work on its application and also needs to have its own charging infrastructure like TATA to compete in this segment. Work on features, and introduce new features.

Please stay away from 2 star safety rated cars

Tin can. Please do buy. Poor build quality. Do not encourage maruti suzuki cars without safety. Family and life comes before anything . Don't be a donkey. Bring the change. Stop buying crap. Go for nissan magnite or tata altroz or ford cars. Cheap quality car with lot of risk. I hope you change your perception of thinking about mileage.
