Ciaz Rocks

Exterior

Superb styling and looks great from every angle. It indeed is a head turner on the roads, attracts a lot of second looks and makes people curious. Maruti has got the styling right, looks indeed modern and contemporary. 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

The best in its class so far, superb beige & black dual tone interiors. Excellent stock audio system and so is the blutooth handsfree setup. Class leading space especially the rear bench, 5 adults can comfortably travel, ample leg room for all. 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

Contrary to reviews, this engine works really well for this car. Although on paper the BHP numbers are less than Honda civic, the car never felt underpowered in city or highway speeds. The fuel economy is one of the highlights of this car, I am getting close 17+ on a city/highway mixed driving conditions. The engine is super quiet and hardly any noise filters into the cabin. Except for the tyre noise on a concrete roads, there is absolutely no noise. 

Ride Quality & Handling

Maruti has done its homework well on the ground clearance and overall NVH levels and hence the ride is probably the best in class. Fantastic ride and superb handling. 

Final Words

Best in class, excellent fuel economy, value for money. Highly recommended. For those still on the fence, please carry out a back-to-back test drive of Ciaz and whatever other car and then go with your heart. With Maruti you just cannot go wrong.

Areas of improvement   

Wish the Zxi+ was available readily.
