With the number of brand-new models we are driving these days, it was nice to get reacquainted with something that has been around longer than a month in the Citroën C3 Aircross.
Amid the barrage of new brands and better-performing heritage nameplates, the French moniker has been quietly going about its business very nicely.
The C3 hatchback is the best seller among the 18 models under the Stellantis umbrella, with the C3 Aircross hot on its heels. Last month, these two brought in a staggering 37.9% of the company's total local new car sales.
What we really enjoyed during our recent week in the Citroën Aircross C3 Max is that it stays true to the marque's ethos of offering a bit of an off-centre alternative to the masses.
And what's even better, because it's sourced from India, the R344 900 price tag holds up very well against the affordable SUVs from the Far East.
