Citroen are all set to launch the C3 on July 20. Citroen aim to price the C3 competitively by offering less standard features than its rivals. We expect the Citroen C3 to undercut its primary rivals, the Maruti Suzuki Ignis and Tata Punch. Here, we compare the Maruti Suzuki Ignis Zeta variant with the Citroen Feel, based on the list of features and expected prices of the C3.

Here are 8 features that are missing in the Citroen C3 Feel but present in the Maruti Nexa Ignis Zeta.

1. Electrically-Adjustable And Foldable ORVMs

The Ignis Zeta offers electrically-adjustable ORVMs along with auto-fold functionality. On the other hand, the C3 offers old-school, manually-adjustable ORVMs.

2. Manual Day/Night IRVM

Maruti Suzuki Ignis Zeta offers manually-adjustable day/night inside rear-view mirror. Meanwhile, the C3 gets a basic inside rear-view mirror without any day/night adjustment. The day/night IRVM serves a crucial role in night driving as it cuts the reflection from the traffic coming from behind.

3. Tachometer

The Ignis Zeta gets an analogue speedometer and tachometer with a digital MID in between. The C3 gets a more premium, all-digital instrument cluster. However, it misses out on a tachometer, even with the turbo petrol engine.

4. Rear Washer, Wiper And Defogger

The Ignis Zeta variant comes with rear washer with wiper and defogger. It’s a big shock to see the C3 missing basic features like rear wiper and defogger even in the top-spec Feel variant. Rear defogger serves a crucial role when driving in foggy or rainy weather.

5. Alloy Wheels

The Ignis Zeta comes with 15-inch alloy wheels whereas the C3 comes with steel wheels with full wheel covers. It is worth mentioning that the Ignis offers 175/65/R15 tyres whereas the C3 gets wider 195/65/R15 tyres. In addition to that, Citroen dealers will also offer an option of dual-tone alloy wheels.

6. LED Turn Indicators

The Ignis Zeta comes with LED turn indicators mounted on the ORVMs. In the C3 Feel, you get halogen-based turn indicators mounted on the fenders.

7. Push-Button Start/Stop With Passive Entry

Maruti Suzuki offer the Ignis with push-button start/stop with passive entry in both the Ignis Zeta and Alpha variants. On the other hand, the C3 comes with the conventional key-based ignition system.

8. Adjustable Headrests

The Ignis comes with front adjustable headrests as standard whereas its Zeta and Alpha variants also add rear adjustable headrests. Meanwhile, the C3 comes with fixed headrests for both front and second row.
