Q. How is the ride quality? Is it comfortable while riding ? Is it good for regular use in city? Which variant is good petrol automatic or manual - Ciaz?

I own and I am driving Ciaz VDI+ SHVS since 2016, the ride quality is awesome with very silent diesel engine. Have driven Ciaz to many places and the utmost thing I liked about this car is comfortable ride. No matter, whether I have driven for 200 Kms or 600 Kms in a day there is hardly any fatigue. It is a good car for regular city ride as well on highways it is the uber smooth. In order to arrive at the variant decision it depends upon many factors like distance in terms of Kms be driven on a daily basis. Like I used to commute for around 70 Kms on a daily basis so I found Diesel to be more efficient as till date I am getting mileage as 23.5 KMPL. So please decide accordingly. Also, I have placed and add to sell my vehicle as I intend to buy a diesel SUV. Please let me know if you are interested.

Ride quality is good in both however when compared Petrol is more smooth and light. Diesel feels more stuck to ground. Good for city use. I prefer the heavy feel in diesel version.

Good. Buying the manual or automatic will depend on the driving conditions and personal preferences. Test drive both variants and take a decision.
