Most Helpful Review

Citroen C3 Live 1.2 Petrol

Looks are stunning at this price range. Suspension is awesome. The second servicing was done recently. The base variant does not have a central locking feature. I got it installed in the aftermarket. Engine performance is also good. Mileage is around 19 With AC and Four passengers

Good mileage

I want to start from front. The headlights are not that strong (average) .Car Performance is quite punche as it produces 83bhp and 114Nm torque(petrol), wheels on this car are small 165/80 R14 ,I think it could be 175 sections tyre for better stability on covering. This car misses abs and ebd so the break are not that good. Fuel efficiency is good in city it gives 17 km/l mileage and 19 km/l in highway as per the instrument cluster shown in the car.The overall look of the is superb back side of the car looks amazing, interior is also good. It will be a plus point for maruti if they imporve the build quality of the car. Maintenance cost is also low Overall it is a wonderful car.
