Can you please make a new and updated video on the brand as they are back with new features and model and i am looking to buy one, is the engine better then normal indian brands.
One point missed, Kia uses India's free trade agreement with South Korea to import electronic parts at low cost and it passes on to customers keeping car prices at comparative range.
india sirf import karta hai aur korean log sirf apna desh ka product leta hai to demand kaan hai indian product ka aur india me sbko foreign product chahiye
@@sauravk6310 actually indian product are not that good in quality and efficiency as compared to product in foreign market, that is the main reason for indian export is low
@@Artivule not true. There are German and Japanese car brands in Korea and they are doing good. They are expensive that's it due to import charges. That's why joint ventures exist in Korea ex: Renault-Samsung Motors It's only Indian brands which are not doing good in Korea. Same goes with steel co. Korea has POSCO and it's bigger than TATA steel and JSW steel.
There're only two reasons why Citroen not doing well 1. Poor marketing 2. Lack of outlets/ service centres Lack of features is just an excuse, agree features are important but people can overlooked it if u convinced them properly. Old gen scorpio, many maruti cars don't have much features yet people accept them.
Their team is on drugs. Launching cars suddenly with no marketing and also Launching feature rich VFN Varients of the car after all hype has died. Had they launched the Shine Varient at the beginning, atleast from journalists in social media, it would have received a more positive reviews
Scorpio & some Maruti cars can still decently despite lack of features because of thier brand name/legacy, resale value and good reliability. All of which a new player like Citroen lacks in the indian market. The lack of enough after sales touch points and poor marketing further acts as an impediment
marketing is the most important reasons if some automakers want to win over the cars market if the marketing are poor their company should know what's happen in the future because marketing is to make people want to buy your cars
Test drove the c3 NA. A very capable and comfortable car. But features which are necessary also , are not in the list. That's why they are lagging in the market. But their sales are getting better by time. I hope pricing of c3 aircross be on spot.
Search "c3 shine variant" they gave everything,even tyre pressure monitor via app, gps geo fencing, auto start stop, electronic stability control, rear viper,defogger, electric orvm, day night rear view irvm, alloy wheels, rear parking camera, great mileage, great power ,great suspension, great handling, heavy sturdy body, high ground clearance, good price , still call it hatchback, exceptional ac, height adjustable driver seat, roomy interiors, .excellent display screen, android auto and apple carplay, 2nd gear range 20 to 100 kph (in city it acts like automatic, no gear change needed)
C3 aircross will be a failure since it is above 4m which will attract more cess and thereby increasing its price ...no matter how aggressive they want to price it
@@Irahhtan someone should file case on this is stupid 4m rule, because of this we are not getting good safe cars.. I hate this govt for its anti car policies
I have brought a citreon C3 (Turbo) a week before only, AFTER TEST DRIVING TATA PUNCH, Maruti Swift Renault and others and trust me, I feel the happiest about my choice! The engine, power, suspension, ride quality, mileage EVERYTHING is perfectly upto my satisfaction level! Yes the features were a miss but that too they've improved in newly launched C3-shine variant. Don't listen to fools Citreon C3 is a beautiful and wonderful car
@@shaikshafi1284 you might think that you'll look very smart by saying such generic things but you'll actually not, because Citroën is a brand of 'Stellantis N.V.' which's the same group that owns renowned brands like Alfa Romeo, Dodge, Fiat, Jeep, Maserati, Peugeot etc and if you think these will eventually have a problem "because they're french" 😂 Rolls Royce has outsourced its suspension making business to citroën because they are that good!! I would recon you to do some research before commenting..
@@ankurtiwari4686 i know that it's part of a big company but even land rover can't have reliability and you very well know that Dodge and Jeep are American carmakers yeah their finances maybe done by new joint company but they manufacture and r &d are seperate Yes Citroen in itself is an age old brand but I don't trust their reliability
Citreon has a lot of stylish sedans on their list. Instead they're just selling beefed-up hatchbacks. They need to bring in a sedan that's priced around 15-20 lakhs, if they wish to have any success in India. The best example for this is Skoda's Slavia.
The reason is, product mein kami hai citron k. Kia saltos jab launch hui thi, Segment mein sabse Jyada features offer kar rahi thi aor citeron sub se kam
They are focusing mainly on export. Its very much capable car. I already own Citroen c3 electric. Good mileage and an amazing driving comfort. And has necessary features and an amazing build quality. 4 star ⭐ for child and adult...
Kia's main succes is due to compromised built quality and bad body shell structure. Citroen has NOT compromised with body shell and structural stability. Please consider this rather than "feature loaded" cars that are superficial and can't provide adequate safety, reliability and stability during ownership
Citroen will definitely grow if Indians dont fall for kia like features (not even 1* NCAP not guaranteed by indian Kia models). My father got Nexon few months and Seltos although lookwise us more appealing but veside nexon it looked weak and less sense of confidence at appearance.
I just don’t agree with you man. In a small car like Citroen, I don’t need a reverse camera. Let’s stop rewarding companies for giving features while compromising the engine. The C3 has an amazing engine and really good quality, so what if it doesn’t have those gimmicky features.
The turbo c3 is a good drive but no automatic is a deal breaker. I feel a kiger cvt turbo is the complete package with lotsa features. That said the c3 might have not given features but the turbo engine nd the suspension is a gem. Best in class with the kiger not far behind.
@@princemehta1443 the turbo c3 is a lotta fun, manuals are amaaazing, offcourse!! But jus daily driving in Mumbai traffic is a migraine!!! That's when I wish I had an automatic. That said, the cvt in a kiger turbo with sports mode has no lag at all, I didn't miss a manual. Citroen shud definitely offer it as an option 🤞
@@princemehta1443you loving manual doesn't mean everyone does, bud. Not everyone wants that manual revving while driving. Some just want to get through bumper to bumper traffic.
I bought Citroen C3. Very very satisfying experience in driving it because of its comfort. The comparison is irrational as Citroen has very few dealers. But it's catching up...which is making competitors nervous esp Korean companies and Maruthi looks like
Citroen is a new entrant in a highly competitive market, unlike Hyundai which is more than 25 years operational in India. I am certain Citroen has a robust strategy for India. I believe for the price you are paying, it's bang for the buck. I think this RUclips channel is comparing apples with oranges and needs to redefine his logic of this video.
INDIANS PLEASE NOTE: DONT BUY ANY CARS FROM STELLANTIS. THEY HAVE GOT AUSTRALIAN AND USA GOV. TO STOP INDIAN CAR COMPANY MAHINDRA FROM SELLING CARS OR FORCING MAHINDRA TO CHANGE THEIR CAR DESIGNS TO BE ABLE TO SELL CARS IN THEIR MARKETS.
most people like features and forget cars are cars good powerful and good handling car , strong build quality with air conditioner ofcourse is more than enough... meanwhile people be ye dekho bada touch screen ye dekho gimmick features and crash and cry with there 0 safety
I am not very sure but feels like their market research team might have confused Indian market with our nabour in the west. - I mean, look at top models of Toyota, Honda and Suzukis running in Pakistan today and these offerings from Citroën falls right in that bracket - both from the lack of features and excessive price front. Pretty strange!
I remember seeing Citroen in WRC as a kid... C3, C4, Xsara driven by Leob and Sordo... Domination and race wins...sad to see such a capable brand being identified by some aircross. What the world has come to...same case with Mitsubishi
You are spot on. Citroen has very less features when compared to others. That is the reason why people are not preferring it. Also if you have arrived and left twice how people will have cofidence on the brand? What did they learn about the Indian market when they are coming for the third time? Nothing.
Overall feel good factor lacking along with touch of premium feel, and visibility on road with good marketing, all it takes is just little bit extra effort to reach masses..
I test drove the c3 NA. The dealer also provided a handsome discount and even offered to install rear camera etc free of cost. my thoughts after the test ride are: its a car. nothing more, nothing less. moves nicely and gets the job done. is cheaper than i20, baleno etc too. but that's all. the ac wasn't too good either (maybe i didn't turn on the ac fully idk) but yea nothing much fun in the car. When i sat in the Kia Sonet, it felt premium, When i sat inside i20, it felt fun to drive. Citroen needs to do something to make it stand out tbh but its not a bad car at all. Gets the job done and could be a good choice if your budget is around 6-7 lakhs
When I was purchasing my car, Citroen c3 seemed like a good option but I ended up getting an i10 nios because Citroen is a new company in India. I am uncertain that they would last, they might end up quitting India in a few years like Chevrolet, Fiat or Daewoo and then I'll be stuck with a car with super expensive repairs
Citreon will never exit... They got a gigantic plant in India which mainly exports to latin America...and they make profits by selling engines... Not cars ☝🏻️
These cars maybe cheap but they miss some features which feeels strange.... Aur uper se inka service network accha nahi hoga because they are new... Plus iska naam hum Indians theek se nahi le paate 😅 bc lena kaafi door ki bat hai... Air cross mehngi hai if u compare
My friend was planning to buy a car so we went to many showrooms including citroen. We thoroughly checked the cars, no youtuber will cover these: 1) Believe me the plastic that is used in the car is so cheap (even Alto base model has better plastics) it feels like its made for 3rd world countries like african nations. 2) Gear is so tight that it feels like a tractor. 3) Engine noise is too much compared to other brands, even you can hear it inside cabin with all the windows closed. 4) When we 2 friends took our rear seat, 3rd friend outside the car noticed that the car went toooooo much down compared to other brands. 5) We tested the speakers, they are not good even much cheaper alto has better speakers. 6) Safety and build quality(it was never there). When you will take a test drive or own these, you will feel good until you compare it to the same segment or even lower segment other brand's cars.
I felt cetroen is insanely lazy, they didn't even changed the design for c3 petrol cap for ec3. The new cross is also the lazy designed that door Handel, etc . Indian consumer buys car to feel reach but with a budget, so they have to give gimmick features along with affordability
Everything is a fair point and i agree. I own the C3 Turbo and There is nothing like it in the market and the service has been nothing short of amazing. idk about others but i'd rather have a well performing rare car than a bunch of cars that are like computers with 4 wheels. Thats just me. Nice analysis btw.
I bought the C5 in Dec 2021, done 40k kms , I can tell without a doubt that this car is definitely worth the price tag. I am very happy with the car. In India, customers prefer cars with lot of features than a solid well engineered car...
Indian customers purchases products that are promoted with Heavy Advertisement... With Any Brand Ambassador..😂... People here still dont know Citroen's comfort, reliable, powerfull engine... French Engineering...
I brought C3.. I am satisfied with perfomance comapre to other same segment cars.. Reason for slow sale poor marketting strategy and they mainly focused on engerneering not features. Also they are confused about indian customers pulse .. I am sure they will get a good space with in 3 years..
Afridi marketing, giving mushfiqur features in virat kohli price and total number of service centres lesser than stuart binny's career... But but what could go wrong?😭
Citroen needs to up their marketing and expand their service network. Then they will surely do better. The new C3 shine turbo MT DT variant seems to be more vfm than the Punch IRA MT DT variant. It solves the "lack of features" issue that the C3 had. It offers all the necessary features but gives you the power of a turbo petrol. I hope that C3 will see a jump in sales because of this variant.
You need to first see the interview with Citreon MD Recently in autoexpo.. They are pretty happy with selling 9000 cars in their first year in India... Their plan is slow and steady growth with a long time emphasis... Citreon as such is not a mass market based product world over.. they have a niche crowd.. i think in the future .. they would be fine if they can sell around 40 - 50 k cars a year in inda..
You seem to be a Maruti fan, how come you show Tiago fuli hui gaadi into Nexon? Both are completely different products. If you want to say fuli hui hatchback to SUV, you should say about Fronx.
I went to La Masion Citroën Bhubaneshwar for C3, but the problem was lack of AMT version! Had to buy Kiger from French car maker Renault!! Many customer were disappointed that they don't sell AMT cars.

Excellent espisode and good analysis. French car makers have always failed in India, for mainly 2 reasons: 1. They dont fully invest in their Dealership. 2. They are still stuck in the 1930's look and feel and think global audience will like their french taste.. ( I feel Indian Car buyers are very savy of the look and feeel of the car). Also, Service is very important aspect, even a brand like Tata fails today not because they dont have a good car, their service is not par with other Korean and Japanese makers. I think Tata has really played a game changing role with their new models and better quality. I always wonder and appreciate how KIA enterted and captured the market so fast. Even in the US, I see a lot of KIA brands on the raod.
People who are Car Rally enthusiasts will definitely own a Citroen if they can. Its a big brand in Europe where Rally circuit is huge and Citroen is the leader. However in India car rallies are rare and nobody knows it or other rally brands so no one follows it. It will be very difficult for Citroen to get a foot hold in India.
Fortuner ex showroom is 36lacs. Where as Jeep compass ex showroom basemodel is 21lacs. Difference is 15lacs A d mg hector base model ex showroom is about 19-20lacs.

Citroen treating Indian car market same as African and Latin American car market which is not same Indians love features on their cars . Koreans and Japanese offers better features
I called in Citroen Bengaluru 2-3 times, but no one responded. 4th time got response from Mumbai or Gurgaon sales department and ensure for test drive will be provided by Bangalore dealer but after that talk never got a call again.

@@athuldominicalthough, your comment sounds sensible, guess what happened to Fiat in India?
These cars maybe cheap but they miss some features which feeels strange.... Aur uper se inka service network accha nahi hoga because they are new... Plus iska naam hum Indians theek se nahi le paate 😅 bc lena kaafi door ki bat hai... Air cross mehngi hai if u compare
0:44 Hyundai sold 55,52,511 cars 🤯🤯 and Suzuki sold 15,76,025 cars.
Off course its a typo😂😂
Yes I saw a neighbour bought Citroen
Rip to neighbours why did they shitty French when they could have. Tata
Poor souls
My friend was planning to buy a car so we went to many showrooms including citroen. We thoroughly checked the cars, no youtuber will cover these:
1) Believe me the plastic that is used in the car is so cheap (even Alto base model has better plastics) it feels like its made for 3rd world countries like african nations.
2) Gear is so tight that it feels like a tractor.
3) Engine noise is too much compared to other brands, even you can hear it inside cabin with all the windows closed.
4) When we 2 friends took our rear seat, 3rd friend outside the car noticed that the car went toooooo much down compared to other brands.
5) We tested the speakers, they are not good even much cheaper alto has better speakers.
6) Safety and build quality(it was never there).
When you will take a test drive or own these, you will feel good until you compare it to the same segment or even lower segment other brand's cars.
The C3 Turbo is great.... The Car is really quick
I felt cetroen is insanely lazy, they didn't even changed the design for c3 petrol cap for ec3. The new cross is also the lazy designed that door Handel, etc . Indian consumer buys car to feel reach but with a budget, so they have to give gimmick features along with affordability
Everything is a fair point and i agree.
I own the C3 Turbo and There is nothing like it in the market and the service has been nothing short of amazing.
idk about others but i'd rather have a well performing rare car than a bunch of cars that are like computers with 4 wheels.
Thats just me.
Nice analysis btw.
How was the service experience?!..and where are you located
Citroen shold name the upcoming creta rival 'Citroen Sanpera' to make it more appealing to indian customers😂😂😂
I bought the C5 in Dec 2021, done 40k kms , I can tell without a doubt that this car is definitely worth the price tag. I am very happy with the car.
In India, customers prefer cars with lot of features than a solid well engineered car...
most of the features are useless and only for showoff to their Neighbours and and relatives🤣🤣🤣
Wrong. The cars arent even safe. C3 got 0 star in ncaap.
@@SurajSinghTomarArya Don't compare Apple to Watermelon. C3 and C5 are very different, C5 is CKD ...
Citroen cars are great and long lasting. I own one with 170k km, still looks and works like new
Indian customers purchases products that are promoted with Heavy Advertisement... With Any Brand Ambassador..😂... People here still dont know Citroen's comfort, reliable, powerfull engine... French Engineering...
I brought C3.. I am satisfied with perfomance comapre to other same segment cars.. Reason for slow sale poor marketting strategy and they mainly focused on engerneering not features. Also they are confused about indian customers pulse .. I am sure they will get a good space with in 3 years..
Honestly these Korean brands have ruined our market
Afridi marketing, giving mushfiqur features in virat kohli price and total number of service centres lesser than stuart binny's career... But but what could go wrong?😭
Citroen needs to up their marketing and expand their service network. Then they will surely do better. The new C3 shine turbo MT DT variant seems to be more vfm than the Punch IRA MT DT variant. It solves the "lack of features" issue that the C3 had. It offers all the necessary features but gives you the power of a turbo petrol. I hope that C3 will see a jump in sales because of this variant.
this is same price as sonet htx plus...
@@hacksgeekCitroen much better, is european brand with great history
"Har fuli hyui hatchback suv nahi hoti" best line
😂
You need to first see the interview with Citreon MD Recently in autoexpo.. They are pretty happy with selling 9000 cars in their first year in India... Their plan is slow and steady growth with a long time emphasis... Citreon as such is not a mass market based product world over.. they have a niche crowd.. i think in the future .. they would be fine if they can sell around 40 - 50 k cars a year in inda..
niche crowd? lmao
You seem to be a Maruti fan, how come you show Tiago fuli hui gaadi into Nexon? Both are completely different products. If you want to say fuli hui hatchback to SUV, you should say about Fronx.
I went to La Masion Citroën Bhubaneshwar for C3, but the problem was lack of AMT version! Had to buy Kiger from French car maker Renault!! Many customer were disappointed that they don't sell AMT cars.
Amt not that good but a cvt Or tc they shud definitely give. Kiger is a great buy, absolute value for money!!! 👌👍
Automatic to bacche chalaate hain. kisi bhi brand ki le lo but automatic kyun lena hai bhai. scooty thodi hai. car hai car ke nazariye se dekho. automatic to specially ladkiyon ke liye bani hai
@@sensitive.aquarian well fyi.. in all developed countries automatic versions sell 10 times more than manual versions...whether it is BMW or Merc.. their automatic sells more than manual... not everyone does racing every day... for that a second car like a mustang or even a subaru will do .. not the honda city types
@@mithunk5473 in developed countries, they wipe their ass instead of washing. Just saying.
@@sensitive.aquarian don't be gender biased..mera ek dost physically challenged(leg) hai(ladka)..he drives cvt....i also drive cvt..vw car...awesome experience..man nhi karta hai..manual chalane..ka..typical..patriarchial mentality..sick mentality.
I fail to understand why multinational corporations having presence in many countries, which obviously have better RnD team world class management decades of experience in selling cars fail to understand the mentioned “reasons”, “issues” which these RUclipss with a few lakh subscribers get so easily😝😝😝
The new citreon 7 seater suv is going bring yet another big revolution in the Indian market, specially in-terms of "price-size ratio" after Mahindra Xuv700
XUV700 has good powerful engines, this one will likely offer a 1.2l 3 cylinder mill, albeit with turbo.
@@vm-my6hg PRICE Brother!!!!
Medium sized suv at much compact suv price is First in the segment
@@er.m.s8930 i understand what you're saying, just feel that the Indian buyer has moved on beyond the price as USP proposition a while back.
The triber doesn't sell much compared to the sub 4m SUVs.
@@vm-my6hgCitroen 1.2L turbo with 130hp is powerful
@@gicugigel3790 slightly more powerful, and one doesn't get that in India, the aircross here gets a bit more torque besides the usual 110 bhp.
why NOT bring back DUSTER. these auto companies see indians as fools. While duster is being sold all over europe, renault here is busy selling kwid. Hopeless
Your topics are on point
Love your content 💥💥

Excellent espisode and good analysis. French car makers have always failed in India, for mainly 2 reasons: 1. They dont fully invest in their Dealership. 2. They are still stuck in the 1930's look and feel and think global audience will like their french taste.. ( I feel Indian Car buyers are very savy of the look and feeel of the car). Also, Service is very important aspect, even a brand like Tata fails today not because they dont have a good car, their service is not par with other Korean and Japanese makers. I think Tata has really played a game changing role with their new models and better quality. I always wonder and appreciate how KIA enterted and captured the market so fast. Even in the US, I see a lot of KIA brands on the raod.
Ya be it 17 century or 21st
The French will always have a hard time dealing with other foreign powers in India 😂😂😂😂
People who are Car Rally enthusiasts will definitely own a Citroen if they can. Its a big brand in Europe where Rally circuit is huge and Citroen is the leader. However in India car rallies are rare and nobody knows it or other rally brands so no one follows it. It will be very difficult for Citroen to get a foot hold in India.
फिलहाल तो भाई Tata or Mahindra ने आग लगा रखी है।

उसी से टाइम नही फिलहाल तो
Fortuner ex showroom is 36lacs. Where as Jeep compass ex showroom basemodel is 21lacs. Difference is 15lacs
A d mg hector base model ex showroom is about 19-20lacs.
Indian audience is feature driven rather than quality, and general Crossovers vehicles are considered as SUVs based on the looks only.
If i would like to choose my gift between citreon c3 aircross vs kia seltos i will pick citreon ,,, C3 aircross is extremely great in terms of performance and ride quality
Citroen C3 ki sales aaram se badh jaegi agar automatic transmission de de. Major city me ye car everyday office employee ko target karni chahiye. Cost 1-2 lakh badh jaega but India me aajkal price koi nahi dekh raha.
Woo Korean hai naa 🙄Hyundai kai friend company 🙄and Asian technology bhii hai ABKII citron walli europian hai pataa nahii kyaa sai rahey hoo 🤔and quality kaisii hoo
Orr sabsai baddi batt Citron kaa koi bharosha nahii hai kaab bhagg jayye and europian company hai pataa nahii kaab konsai sanction lagg jayye 🤔
1000 comments completed 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 thank for me 🤣🤣👌👌🎉🎉🎉🎉
I wanted to buy C3 there were having home test ride option waited almost 3 weeks.... the company did not made any calls.. so went with punch
I have been to the Citroen dealership in Nagpur, never seen a single person there
Their cars are great
Reasons:-
Poor dealer and service network
Lack of features
Overpriced for what they offer
Little or no marketing
Kya bakwas hai Citroen C3 Shine Lelo bhai badi company se Paise leke chhoti company ko Badnaam karna band karo😅
People are sacred of spare parts price and availability in market & car itself.
Now a days people are getting more conscious for safety rated cars..
I will be honest. Citroen looks stale infront of a KIA.
KIA gives off that Jeep vibe which Citroen lacks
Make videos of Renault -Nissan
0:30 Kia is not new brand, everyone knew it's just sister brand of Hyundai with premium target audience.
Citroen cars are overpriced with zero features not even basic features🤦.They wont get sales until they understand about Indian market and do good marketing
I own 2 Chevrolet cars. My future cars are going to be from Indian manufacturers only.
Citroen treating Indian car market same as African and Latin American car market which is not same Indians love features on their cars . Koreans and Japanese offers better features
9:00 That last row seats are just a showoff in a c3 not even kids can sit comfortable there🤣🤣. Lol new gen station wagon
Duster is a European car but failed, its not because of vehicle ita because of management and price...
Your pronunciation of cietron is wrong to start with. That's the first reason why people don't buy it. Its ceee tron. Not cetroin.
Citroen is being stingy to provide features😂 ,overpriced as compared to other cars within that segment 😝
I've seen more Porsche's (5-6 cars) in my city than Citroen (only twice).
Citreon c3 is best car in this segment and price... I hope citreon will survive in india..
bro make a separate video of how VW aquired PORSCHE
Performance and price are not good. Just because of this I cancelled Citroen.
Very well covered 😁
This transition @6:30 😂😂😂
people are buying Kia beacuse they think it is coming from Nokia😂
Not value for money...
Tbh Citroen C3 is best and reliable car as compared to TATA punch
Inke cars ke naam mujhe pronounce karne mein kaafi dikkat hota hai. Agar mein naam lene meinhi atak raha hu toh cars ke prices sunke kya hoga mera😂
I called in Citroen Bengaluru 2-3 times, but no one responded. 4th time got response from Mumbai or Gurgaon sales department and ensure for test drive will be provided by Bangalore dealer but after that talk never got a call again. If the sales department itself is grey then how customer will think about service?
BJP valon ko 2000 gaadi de do. Apne aap Maruti ban jayegi
