Most Helpful Review

Reliable predictable and consistent performance

I drove this car to Badrinath , Really enjoy the driving it's movability and engine is really very smooth Very good car If you drive between 60 to 70 km/h We get average 20++ AC is very effective

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.

Best Ev car in budget

Pros:- Best EV car in this budget Range and Build quality is awesome. Interior looks awesome like a premium. CAR range also good. Cons:- Very small car .not comfortable for more than 4 members.
