Citroen C3 1.2 Turbo Feel Road Test

By Bilal Ahmed Firfiray04 Jan 2023

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

Toyota Etios Cross

By Ninad Mirajgaonkar06 May 2014

It’s a crossover… It’s a hatchback… No, we don’t know! And since we don’t have a name for this segment of cars, we are going to begin by christening them Hatchovers! The Etios Cross is the latest entrant to this India-specific segment, where the cars look rugged and bulky like crossovers, but offer pretty much the same utility as that of a hatchback. It may be a unique distinction for the Indian automotive market, but not something that we should be proud of. What exactly is the purpose of the hatchover then? What made manufacturers like Volkswagen, Skoda and Toyota enter this segment? Is it just a passing fad or will we see more vehicles of this kind in future? We spend some time with the Etios Cross to get to the bottom of this riddle.
