A compact SUV with a powerful engine

A compact SUV with a powerful engine along with so many features rivalry against its competitor's riding is great as looks only required is to fix the rear overall great at under 10 lacs with incredible features.

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.
