I think that you and newenergy are both right!!

Reason:
My guess is that You are referring to C3 Hatchback ( by saying on road 9L) and newenergy seems to be referring to the C3 Aircross by comparing it with the VW Taigun.

Re: Citroën ropes in MS Dhoni as the brand ambassador

Well, I would not compare Citroen C3 with Taigun, and if someone would- then all praises to Citroen. Apart from the fact that even 1.0 L Taigun is turbocharged (correct me if I am wrong), Taigun is much bigger car than C3. C3 Aircross is probably bigger than Taigun.

I have driven all these cars - Taigun, C3 Aircross, and C3. Hands-down C3 Aircross is real knockout in the driving dynamics.

Yes you are right, the C3 Aircross is marginally bigger than the Taigun on all counts (L, W, H) and overall has a 20mm bigger wheelbase.

But the Taigun, is heavier and more planted, hence better driving dynamics in my opinion.

Disclaimer. While the C3 Aircross comes in 1 engine option the 1.2L, the Taigun comes in two: 1.0 and 1.5L, and hence I feel its unfair to compare the higher versions of the Taigun to the Citroen C3 Aircross.

Reason:
The 1.5L Turbo on the Taigun is a totally different beast, and a category above the Aircross. Also Likewise its unfair to compare a TC-gearbox (C3 Aircross) to a DCT (VW Taigun), they are inherently different, and have their own advantages and disadvantages, but for pure performance, the DCT is the superior transmission, no doubt.
