Citroen C3 Aircross This French compact SUV looks adorable in a quirky kinda way. Overheard at the Motorshow however, were comments by show goers who were quick to mention how it seemed to have almost similar lines to MINI’s Countryman. While this will remain a subjective matter, we reckon the younger set who wants a unique turbocharged 1.2-litre SUV will surely fall in love with it immediately. Available now with price starting from SGD$98,999 with COE.

‘Premium Dynamism’ is what Nissan terms the Qashqai’s new look. At the front, the Qashqai gets an integrated new front bumper, featuring more of the car’s body colour and glossy black plastic. Nissan’s iconic ‘V-motion’ grille frames the new Nissan badge — with a traditional badge for the 1.2-litre variant, and a flat finish for the 2.0-litre variant in order to house the Intelligent Emergency Braking (IEB) system’s radar. On either side of the grille, new LED lamps with ‘boomerang’-style daytime running lights (DRL) run across the top of the headlamp assembly.
