Recently Asked User Questions
- Just go for ciaz delta or zetta manual transmission and have a fun drive but don't buy hyundai venue when you look hyundai its great but in driving after sometime it will dissapoint on the otherhand maruti ciaz not more ground clearance more mileage more prestige but if you say luxury is more in hyundai i agree with you but only luxury nothing else maruti ciaz is something different from others just go and take test drive sit in car for 5 minutes and then drive and feel
- Verna SX without a doubt. First there is the sunroof which gives the car a premium feel. Then there are lots of cool features like digital instrument cluster, smart trunk, wireless charger, etc. Verna engine is very refined. It has the most silent cabin ( best in the segment). Smooth gearbox ( even better than Honda City). Pleasant and soft to drive. Plus Hyundai has better build quality.
- Ciaz shall be the better option, m driving it for around last one year, it is very spacious, most fuel efficient in its class, maximum ground clearance in its class, vast service network in India with spares available easily as compared to others. For City spares are not easily available, verna's spares are also costlier than ciaz.All in all Ciaz is a very good package. My Ciaz gives me 21.5 km/ltrs average in city traffic, thanks to its Diesel Hybrid engine.
- If you want lap of luxury with light interior I would prefer Ciaz, but, if you are willing to go with safety and companion feelings with each and every punch inside go with Verna as hyundai has one of the finest gearbox in this segment of cars.
- Comfort and economy wise ...I would suggest Ciaz.more features which won't help you for long go for Verna....but remember features may male function but economy and comfort zone never....so via is best.
- If you want more features and mind blowing design... Go for verna. Rather if you need more practicality and creature comforts go for ciaz by all the way
- Ideally, Sun roof is not a highly needed feature in INDIA. It has remained more of an emotional connect with families, otherwise, it has more disadvantages then the advantages by having it in a car. Even if, you still want to go for Sun roof, Honda City is a better choice. You may also prefer to install it, if you highly needed it..!
- If ground clearance is not an issue go for Honda City
- Bro, XUV300 IS THE BEST WITH SUNROOF

GurkhaGurkha is my FAVOURITE car,
Gurkha is my first FAVOURITE offroading car.I have only driven it once, So i didn't notice the milage.It could be 9 or 10, Because i was eager to drive it that time.Suspensions was impressive driving experience like you are driving truck on road but still no more sound and viabrations.All car feel small in front of it when you are sitting in gurkha.

CiazEconomic sedan
Ciaz, The best economic sedan in indian market.The comfort is very good for the price point, Lacks features accord8ng to latest standards but still other than that has good dynamics.Driving is decent for the sedan at this price and does not feel very hard while driving.The car is very underpowered in the segment and seems to be very non competitive.

CiazI own a ciaz 1.3 Diesel VDI,
I own a ciaz 1.3 diesel vdi, I have driven it almost 110000 kilometres and honestly its a great car with absolutely amazing mileage.I like to drive with a heavy foot but still the car gives a mileage of around 20-22 kilometres per litre.Its pretty spacious and has a very big boot capacity.I also own a toyota fortuner but my parents prefer to be driven around in ciaz only.Honestly, It only lacks good build quality but i must agree that its a value for money car.Its stability at high speed is quite surprising and breaking is also decent.

CiazCar forward
I have been using the Suzuki Ciaz Alpha petrol variant (bs4) for the past three years, And I have completed a total of over 25000 km. The journey was always royal except for some minor incidents which blew away the fun of riding this car. Let me split my review into three parts: the good, The bad and the ugly Good:- 1. The car looks royal and has a pretty good road presence. The dimensions are pretty large, Which provides luxurious leg space and comfort. The second-row seats three people easily without any discomfort. The advantage is that Ciaz doesn't have a bump in the middle of the rear seat, Which makes sitting comfortably. 2. The overall look is pretty, Both front and rear lights are classy. Though the rear light feels like a copycat of BMW, The rear led lights to light up decently. The front light is white led, Which provides better illumination than any other car in the segment. The auto lighting feature, Provided as a feature identifies the range and height of the illumination to be provided on the road. The disadvantage of this is noted in 'the bad'. 3. The ride is joyful, calm, and luxurious. On highways, It feels like floating and moves smoothly, Which feels good. 4. The rear camera clarity is very good, Which gives similar to the 180-degree viewport. 5. The interior of the car looks premium. The premium glossy finish, The wood-like panel in the dashboard, Tan leather seats looks and feels premium. The seats are luxurious, soft and comfortable. Bad:- 1. The auto illuminating light has the disadvantage of auto-adjusting the length and height setting of the illumination. Even when flashing the light or in a high beam, the height of the light is very low. So, If the vehicle from the opposite direction throws light at your eyes, You cannot warn them as your high beam is similar to their low beam. 2. Sound insulation is very bad. You can hear everything outside. Even people talking outside can be heard clearly from inside even if all the windows are closed. The same is the case with the inside voice going out. 3. The Ciaz boasts a premium 4 speaker music system. Which is an average music system. There is an issue with clarity on high and low pitched music. 4. There is an issue with the gear system. Occasionally, The gear doesn't go to the reverse mode. You will have to move the car forward a bit, then stop and put the car in reverse. I initially thought the issue was specific to my car alone, But talking to other Ciaz owners proved that, It was a common issue. 5. You will be offered 20+kmpl mileage by the salesman when buying the car. Never fall for that. I have never got a mileage above 17 km even in eco mode.6.As the dashboard is painted glossy black and the slanting of the windshield is more, When you are driving towards the sunlight, You are blinded as the dashboard is mirrored on the windshield, And you will not be able to see anything. Ugly:- 1. If you leave the car in bright sunlight for a couple of hours, When you get in the car, You will feel a salty, Nauseating smell coming from the air vents. This will go only after turning on the air conditioner for a couple of minutes. 2. Though the car boasts a 1500cc engine, As the weight of the car is more. The power delivery is less. Even on highways, Cars of the lower segment will overtake you very easily leaving you far behind. But, Considering the peaceful and calm ride, That can be ignored. Verdict:- As an overall package. The Ciaz Alpha is a 'not-so-premium' comfortable car to travel long distances, and you will definitely love it.

Ciaz4.7Driving experience
Driving experience: i have been driving for past 4 years.Everyday on an average >50 km.The driving is pleasant.The vehicle performs optimally in bad road and bumper to bumper traffic.The steering is a bit heavier as compared to tata cars/ hyundai’s.However, In high speed (>80km) the steering response beautifully.Comfort: the cabin is spacious and ambiance is eye pleasing.The second row seats are having good leg room.Downsides: driver seat adjustment is bad.The head space is narrow.The second row passengers do not have adjustable head rest.The glove box is not cooled.The inside cabin noise is moderate.Worse than hyundai and tata.Better than kia seltos.I do not feel any vibration inside cabin.My car runs in petrol.Handling: the car behaves like gentleman in heavy traffic.The pickup is moderate.Not too bad.Maneuvering through road is hassle free.Night driving: the headlights lacks intensity.The fog lights are un-remarkable.I wonder why a reputable company like maruti-suzuki can’t provide better lightings.The most scary is night driving in rain.Almost nothing visible on a tar road.Service: i did service once a year and the average cost is ~12000-14000.The service center personnel are helpful.The battery lasted exactly 3 years.Mileage: in highway >18 km/lin city: ~ 15 km/lmixed conditions: 17 km/l.

Ciaz4.3Quality levels
Ciaz is not for car enthusiasts.It's a very comfortable car with a lot of legroom and 3 adults can sit comfortably in the rear seat as there isn't a big h**p in the middle.The cabin is very spacious and the beige treatment in the interior gives a good airy feel.The engine is very refined and has good amount of initial torque.But at the final range there isn't enough power output.The engine loves to rev a lot.I personally feel that msil could have given it a 6th gear.The clutch is super-duper light and shifting is so easy.It is an easy car to drive in the city as well as on highways.The steering is very light that it doesn't give any feel or feedback.The suspension is on the softer side and absorbs most of the bumps and potholes very well.There are few issues with the car, That is, There are panel gaps everywhere.Actually the panel gaps are big and the fit and finish isn't great.The quality levels could have been improved both in the interior as well as exterior.Overall the car suits your parents very well but it doesn't inspire the youngsters because ciaz is much of a comfort oriented car and not a sporty one.

Ciaz4.3Poor quality
As this is comfort oriented Sedan, all of its components incl. engine is tuned in such a way. Therefore don't expect any sort of performance. If you floor the throttle the sound of the engine becomes so loud that some wouldn't be liking it. But personally I like its sound when I floor it. Suspension in tuned in such a way that it offers maximum comfort at the cost of handling. Some defects in the vehicle that I found was poor quality of plastics used and the sound from the speakers are below average that you couldn't increase the volume because the rattling all around the cabin is obnoxious
