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

Pocket Rocket

Amazing value for money at 8 lacs & I bought it for two reasons: I was convinced by Tata’s commitment to their resurgence & also Jayem technology who are behind the JTP. I got all I expected & more, I cut one star for refinement which could have happened with little effort. Engine noise & vibration is so much that my colleague asked me if it’s a diesel car. Drive, handling & suspension are amazing. Any youngster looking for a pocket rocket, the JTP is your car at 30% less than a GT TSI or Baleno RS

Citroen C3 1.2 Turbo Feel Road Test

The Citroen C3 has a tough task at hand. Has it got what it takes?

CarWale Track Day 2019: Tata Tiago JTP vs Maruti Suzuki Swift

By Ninad Ambre01 May 2019

The cars you see on these pages might be small hatchbacks and at first glance look quite similar, however, underneath they are very different. In the left corner we have the Tata Tiago JTP which is the go-faster version of the standard car, while in the right corner we have the standard Maruti Swift petrol. The Tata Tiago JTP with more power and stiffer suspension as compared to the Swift definitely has an upper hand. However, the Swift is no slouch, as even in the standard trim it is quite a weapon. It is also the lighter of the two which should help at the tight and technical corners of the MMRT. So which car will come out on top? The more powerful JTP or the underdog Swift? Time to head out on track to find out.
