Maruti Suzuki Ciaz Features

The new DDiS 225 variant on the Maruti Suzuki Ciaz is the brand new diesel that has been developed in-house. The 1.5-litre 4-cylinder diesel engine is BS6 ready and will eventually replace the Fiat sourced 1.3-litre Multijet engine. We test the new engine, by taking the updated Ciaz diesel out for a spin.

The new Maruti Suzuki Facelift gets a bunch of updates to the looks along with a new 1.5-litre petrol engine as well. We spend some time with the new Ciaz and here's what we think.

Very seldom does Maruti Suzuki want to put the past behind, given it's overall leadership position in the Indian market. However, the compact sedan segment has proved to be a tough nut to crack for Maruti - the initial response to the SX4 was great, which then flagged off when the DZire arrived.

With only few days left for the official launch of the new mid-sized sedan from MSI, the Ciaz, more details have surfaced about the vehicle. Expected to be rolled out in both petrol and diesel variants, the Ciaz range will include four petrol and four diesel variants each.

Maruti Suzuki India has finally unveiled the all new Ciaz Sedan in India today at the 2014 Auto Expo. This car will replace the SX4 in the country.
