Best sedan in the segment

I've been using the car for 5 years now, I have experienced the best-of-class comfort in this segment and the best thing is has the lowest service cost and comes with the trust of Maruti so highly recommended if you are looking for a sedan in this segment.

Delivered a defective car

Exterior  Well styled, lines flow very well Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)  compact but comfortable. Leg room at the rear limited, but the seats are well designed Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox  Slight lag, Picks up better after mid revs. Not the best acceleration. Ride Quality & Handling  Handles well, quite smooth. Not as much grip as an Audi for example Final Words The car was delivered scratched up to me on the inside and outside. Have not received a proper response from the dealer Autohangar in Mumbai. Have been forced to file a lawsuit and get a refund. They have spent over 20 days going back and forth pleading that I keep the car in the present state. They went so far as to say that scratches are common in new cars and asked me to come to teh showroom to see more scratches!   Areas of improvement    Need better quality control and sales channel. Will never go for this brand in such a scenario. Terrible buying experience. The brand has no value it seems for the dealers.  Looks goodNightmare dealing with the company

Maruti Suzuki Ciaz Review: Pros and Cons

By Vikrant Singh21 Nov 2019

Here are the five reasons why one should buy the Ciaz diesel and two reasons why one shouldn’t.

Mercedes-AMG C43 First Drive Review

By Santosh Nair28 Feb 2017

The C43 is Mercedes-AMG’s answer to a more performance oriented C-Class. While this model finds its place below the C63 AMG S in the current C-Class influenced AMG line-up in India, it slots above the CLA45 AMG. Sure, the latter comes close to the C43 AMG in terms of price and power output, but the C43 AMG makes a case for itself since it’s a part of the C-Class family, which is a cut above.

Maruti Suzuki Ciaz 1.5 Diesel First Drive Review

By Ajinkya Lad06 Aug 2019

This right here is the Maruti Suzuki Ciaz diesel. But it doesn’t use the tried and tested Fiat-sourced 1.3-litre motor.
