Our take
The real reason to pay ₹0.20L more for the Brezza ZXi+: the Brezza ZXi+ shifts itself while the other is a manual. It also adds 360° camera and blind spot monitor. The rest of the additions are minor trim. At that price, we would stretch.
- The AircrossX swallows the most luggage at 444 litres
- Also on the Brezza ZXi+: single-pane sunroof, head-up display, connected car tech and rear parking camera, and some minor trim beyond that
- Going to the Brezza ZXi+, you give up touchscreen (10.25" against 10.1"), driver display (7" digital against Semi-digital) and third-row AC vents, which the AircrossX Turbo Max 7-Seater keeps
- Choose the Citroen AircrossX Turbo Max 7-Seater if
- You would rather keep the ₹0.20L than pay for kit you will not miss
- Choose the Maruti Suzuki Brezza ZXi+ if
- You will do long stints in this car and want the daily comforts
