Eye catching vehicle

I think everything is fine except for the electronic parking brake and auto hold options. The ground clearance for the diesel automatic is missing, and there are issues with the after-sales service, interior quality, reverse camera quality, and horn.

Performance meets comfort

The Hyundai i20 is a wonderful car which I used for 1month. It looks sharp and sporty, which gives a performance mood, and its performance is not bad, which is good in the segment. Hyundai services are much better, and fuel efficiency is not bad. and comfort when I drive this car, I have confidence, which I didn't get from other cars in the segment.

City car

Citroen C3 is a City car, not best for rural areas. This is value for money and best for a short family. I prefer the Citroen C3 to the Maruti Suzuki cars. The mileage was very nice and a comfortable ride.
