Questions you may find useful

•17w

I am looking for a manual petrol hatchback (preferably non-Maruti) within 10 lakhs on road price in Thrissur. Priorities (in order) are road visibility comparable to Wagon R, short turning radius, airbags for driver and front passenger, rear camera with sensors, central locking, tinted glass, decent infotainment unit, and reasonable seating for 3 abreast in the back seat. Also, how does the Citroen C3 measure for the above requirements and against the Punch & i10?
