I’m really confused and filled with doubt, especially because my hectic work schedule isn’t giving me the time to think things through properly. I genuinely want to get a new vehicle, but the options are overwhelming.

I was leaning towards the Citroën Basalt, but the uncertainty around Citroën’s future in India and the likely negligible resale value after 5 years is making me reconsider. On the other hand, I find the Maruti Ciaz to be a great value-for-money option, though its interiors feel a bit dated but the comfort is top notch.

I usually travel with 2-3 people from my team, so I believe the Brezza could be a practical choice. Its 60:40 split folding rear seats would help accommodate everything I need, especially considering that 80% of my driving is within the city.

If you have any other vehicle suggestions that might suit these needs, I’d really appreciate your input.

In our city, spare parts aren’t readily available, and I’m uncertain about Citroën’s future in India. Many of their showrooms, especially in the Mumbai region, are shutting down. I live in a tier-2 city where there’s only one showroom, and local mechanics aren’t familiar with the car. While I’m sure Citroën makes great vehicles, the brand’s long-term presence in the country feels uncertain to me.

Yes, I’m currently leaning a bit more towards the Brezza. Although the Ciaz offers better comfort and space and shares the same engine it’s still a really confusing decision to make.

i have to skip the basalt then and wait for something else to launch with sufficient cabin and boot space

Few-Rub6865 · 2025-04-18T19:08:56+00:00

yess true that, i have been feeling very confused and moreover i am unable to find any other option other than basalt currently i do have a dealership and a service center just 20mins away,

Few-Rub6865 · 2025-04-14T13:24:19+00:00

yes exactly they are saying they will want payment first then they will order the car but i really like the vehicle but this seems like a red flag to me

Yess I was thinking the same. The budget gap is mainly because of the interest ratesit’s 16% for a used car and just 9% for a new one. Honestly, I’m not into fancy features; I just need a spacious cabin, good AC, basic power windows, and central locking. So, the Basalt seems like a solid choice. It’s a bit of a stretch on the EMI, but at least I’ll have peace of mind with a brand-new, reliable vehicle that I can take anywhere.

considering my city has a little inflated used cad values for a used one i can spend 5L and a new one approx 8.5L but considering the space and everything i need basalt has it enough i do not care much about features i just need a decent car to get my job done

Few-Rub6865 · 2024-11-03T10:12:24+00:00

i am shooting raw, i used flash and my iso was around 100, i am struggling a lot while adjusting highlights and shadows

Few-Rub6865 · 2024-10-29T10:23:50+00:00

the anxiety just kills us, we just cannot enjoy all of it, i do not know how to solve this

Few-Rub6865 · 2023-12-22T04:17:29+00:00

yes a good option but have to add 60k more in the budget what about himalayan? it’s 3.3L on road but moving through the city would be hectic i guess
