• Pros & Cons

  Pros, Cons

  Pros	Safer platform and 5-star safety rating. 1.5L Turbo petrol engine feels punchy and offers great performance. Ventilated and electrically adjustable front seats are great for comfort. Interior feels premium and in line with other high-end models from Volkswagen. The German brand appeal gives it a premium and upmarket perception.	Excellent value for money : mid-size SUV at the price of a sub 4m offering A very comfortable ride set-up, something that Citroens are known for Spacious cabin, even tall rear passengers will not have a reason to complain 470-litre boot is bigger than even the Honda Elevate! Easy to drive manners - good visibility and light controls 1.2-litre turbo petrol is punchy and the 6-speed AT responsive
  Cons	No ADAS and 360-degree camera. Skips out on the rear seat massage function, unlike the Kushaq. Compact size in comparison to rivals could be a potential deterrent for buyers.	Features like sunroof, push button start, cruise control, auto lamps etc missing No automatic (or even AMT) with non-turbo petrol. No CNG or diesel either Limited dealer network - only 85 outlets across India at launch Bharat crash test ratings might be average at best
