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.

Maruti Suzuki Swift Dzire AMT First Drive Review

By Vikrant Singh22 Mar 2016

It is Maruti Suzuki’s offering for its Swift Dzire fans who drive a lot of kilometres each month, but do so mostly in stop and go traffic. The Swift Dzire AMT also works for those who don’t exactly love driving but end up driving a lot anyway, and would rather have convenience and ease of driving over driving pleasure. Finally, the Maruti Suzuki Swift Dzire AMT is the second only affordable diesel automatic in the country; the first of course was the Tata Zest AMT.
