    The C3 Aircross makes me happy every time I drive. It feels solid, safe with dual airbags and ABS. The boot space is big enough for our luggage. For me, it is the right mix of comfort, technology, and style.

    Well-built car that is comfortable is travel in. Multiple features which creates convenience like the display. Ideal size where there is plenty of space but overall the car isn't too big. Upto 5 can travel conveniently.
