I had high expectations about Citroen when first heard about the company from a malayalam youtube channel 'talking cars'. I was wondered about the comfort factor and had very high hopes.instead ,what they launched was a car primitive than our 13yr old santro. Comfort may be good,engine may be good,but how can someone miss on basic segment standards? For someone who hates features, there's always a base variant ,which is the same car with less tech inside. But what about some one who wants tech?they launched shine variant with a few features addition,but again ,they seriously lack a proper market study( i am not a hater,had high hopes ,but disappointed..just like for tata cars,no proper qc checks and service)
They are not making cars for you who wants features. They are making cars for people to enjoy driving a car for what it is and have comfortable journey and not waste money on unnecessary things called features.. Plain and simple.
@@mageshmac4716 I would've agreed with you if it missed only gimmicky features... But it missed basic amenities like doorside power windows, pull type door handles, led headlights, etc considering the price point 😢
@@gokulkalloor the rear power windows in middle is same as in Alto K10 but I accept this should be on door. I have 2001 Santro still running fine which has this old style door handles but no one bothers about it when they sit inside. Halogen headlight is better in rain compared to Led headlights. Below 10Lakhs none of the cars have C3's drivability, comfort or performance. What do you prefer ?
In your other drag race video, fronx took around 17.11 seconds for quarter mile. Although it is from a different segment, it's hard the believe it is quicker than the 1.0 tsi engine of Taigun. Can you please do a drag race between an i20 nline manual vs Fronx turbo manual? :)
@@SajjadKhan-nv2td You are right but it also makes close to 18 PS and 30 NM more and power to weight ratio is similar. M sure the 1.0 TSI will have a better top end, but suzuki's boosterjet is pretty quick for its modest power figures. Other than the comparatively lower weight of fronx, I think it's their 48V mild hybrid system (with torque assist) that's responsible for the peppy nature of fronx.
Citroën has released a new engine in 2024 for the turbo fed cylinders, and they did not even give a small notification for it in the press. The present 2024 engine has a timing chain, compared to the dreaded timing belt in engine oil of last year. These timing-belt in engine oil series of engines are being recalled all over Europe. Pity the early adopters who have the belt in oil engines, which are known for catastrophic engine failure due to clogging of the oil strainer by disintegrating parts of the timing belt. Remember rubber and oil do not mix, including nitrile, neoprene and fluorine infused timing belts.
Bhai saal me sirf 600 unit beche e Citroen ne pure mahine mein, akele baleno ke 18000 unit beche jaate he 1 mahine me, company loss mein jaa rahi hein, Chevrolet ki tarah e bhi bhaag jayenge, phir parts or servicing bhi nhi milegi, phir comfort bhi jayega or second mein bhi koi nhi kharidega.

first , forget about the brand and model. will you accept 1000cc turbo engine is more better and powerfull than 1200cc Turbo engine?. change your name some please instead of autocar.
Fronx turbo despite making 20 bhp and 30 nm less is quicker than taigun in 0-100 and quarter mile. Does it mean the 1.0 boosterjet engine of Suzuki is better than 1.0 tsi engine of VW/Skoda? Of course fronx is lighter, but if you compare power/weight ratio, the difference isn't that much.
C3 Turbo hatchback(10L on-road) costing 4-6Lakhs less than Taigun(14.5L or 16L onroad) finishes race in 16.842sec as tested by Autocar whereas Taigun took 17.4s best time. C3 Turbo has more space, better suspension, costs less, 19kmpl mileage, better AC - all compared to Taigun.
@@M.ayaan21 safety is there even in Tiago these days.. C3 Turbo is also safe with good build quality(need to wait for gncap). Anyway, if you are going to pay 6Lkhs more for an inferior car for travelling(not about driving) where your family is not comfortable (due to less space, stiff suspension), then U need to reconsider your decisions if you care about ur family.
@@mageshmac4716 I've owned multiple German cars and I've also driven the c3, if you really think the c3 even comes close to the taigun in terms of quality then I'm sorry to say this but you don't really know a lot about cars. Citroen isn't giving any importance to us(Indians) they're launching a car with absolutely basic features at a very low price, just because the Indian market is very price sensitive. The ride and handling balance is good, what you're getting is a car which shouldn't cost more than 7 lakhs on the road. And as far as safety goes, a Tiago can have 5 stars but it's the active safety features which make the difference. The structural rigidity of the chassis and the platform matters. C3 isn't as sturdy as a Tiago and I don't think you compare it to a taigun. So clearly I wouldn't mind paying 2 lakhs more for the base variant of a taigun over the c3. It handles better, it's safe and it's a car which is at least 2 notches above the c3. So I don't you tell me if I care about my family or not. I know what I need and I know how to look after my family.
@@M.ayaan21 I never compared quality of C3 to Taigun but the quality you are speaking about seems to be about features which is not so important for travelling. Quality provided in C3 is similar to cars costing 5-6Lkhs and that's fine for its cost.. also I spoke about the Turbo which performs better than Taigun. Also Taigun is not comfortable to travel. Better comfort is available in C3 Aircross compared to C3. Come to reality than justifying your decision.. I also mentioned about comfort for passengers and not about driving in my previous message.
I don't understand why drag races are to be done/shown/ popularized for cars in India. It isn't required as there is no race on the roads, and can drive long term behavioural change towards driving faster and hence is unsafe for everyone.
Citroen C3 Aircross AT is Gem in Sea! The price point it offers is worth of every sweat drop!

You should interchange drivers as well for the second race. Along with vehicle performance driver skills also matter.
Agreed👍
Yes
Because technically C3 has better torque and less weight so it may be the driver's fault.
@@HemantVermaGenuine
Can switch of TC in Taigun not in Citroen.
True 👍
You should have taken a 5 seater variant of C3 Aircross which weighs 1195 kgs and interchange the drivers too in second round
I really wish Citroen gets it right soon and succeeds this time
They have authentic designs unlike space ship trends of kia and Hyundai
Do the same for Torque converters ❤

Citreon AT vs Taigun AT ... Do this race

Need one drag between taigun 1.0 vs xuv300 turbo sport. Looking at quarter mile timings, it would be a very tight contest
Need more drag races.. like old model vs face-lift.. Taigun vs Kushaq..
I have a bad back and the Citroen makes so much sense for me. Good engines, best suspension, great seats, awesome looks and less price.
Request you to please make a separate video of new taigun GT sport
Can you race old cars like Cruze(manual) ,Octavia ,jetta,vento,susuki kizashi and etc it would be fun to watch
Vento is not that segment.... Add elantra and civic
where is the place you are doing drag racing
I was literally waiting fromd last drag for diz race finally but waiting period is to long🥵🤦🙏✨💫🤘🤘
Precisely why....one shoudn't go for numbers alone while picking an automobile....performance often vary more then numbers ...
TC/ESP off in Taigun?
Because cant switch off in Citroen, not mentioned anything.
The automatic C3 aircross is quicker than taigun 1.0 AT
Please do drags for semi-premium SUV category - Tiguan, Kodiaq, Meridian etc
Abey spelling to seekh
For the price point, I think Citroen wins the drag race!
Pls do it. 120 N line manual drag race
Gear shifting by aircross driver is not optimal it seems😊
Hey didn't the c3 turbo did quater mile 17 seconds vs XUV 300 tgdi why such a diff?
This is C3 Aircross
Next drag Nexon vs Brezza petrol
Canu do drag elevate mt vs citreon mt vs taigun 1 l mtvs creta
Gear shift by the Citroen driver is a pain to watch.... 😂
Citroen wins here..0.5sec fast and you dont need to spend extra 10 lakhs for a small highly unreliable car from VW...!
Who drags with traction control on? Look at the wheels of Citroen @ 0:53 seconds.. TC cut of the power immediately at the launch
Next Hyundai 1.0 vs VW1.0 possible??
Honda amaze petrol mannual vs breeza mannual pls
Bring maruti 800 vs santro vs matiz vs zen vs alto vs indica
Citroen is best in its price
You should also do 1L Kushaq vs 1L Sonet. Then the winner takes on fronx 1l
