Maruti Suzuki Ciaz [2014-2017] User Reviews

Exterior Company cheated by advertising that highest model has larger wheels of 16" alloys. But it never disclosed that the spare wheel is not only 'non-alloy' but also smaller in size (both in height and the width!). 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interiors are good. Quality of plastics is good. Music system is quite average. Reception of FM particularly is worse than Indica Vista that i used to drive!

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Drive is smooth but one feels significantly under-powered. Fuel economy is about 14.5 on an average and about 15.5 on highway

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is good. Handling at high speeds doesnt inspire confidence as steering is too light. Gear shift is not that good. My car had a trouble within a day of purchasing. Maruti did change some part but it didnt improve much

Final Words Overall decent car - not at all for driving enthusiats who love to have strong power under their feet. DO NOT BUY the TOP Variant

Areas of improvement Company should disclose that tyre sizes are unequal.

Spacious, Good styleCompany cheated by giving tyres of different sizes in top end variant.

I have made a big mistake to choose a Ciaz. I am really irritated to hear the cabin noise even on smooth roads. I don't know this issue is creating tyre or thin metal body. Can any one help me to solve this issue. Pls Can I solve the issue by changing the stock Goodyear tyres? Noice is getting increasing on the rough roads.

Dear All,

Please dont buy Ciaz ZXI i bought this model on 22nd october 2015. i bought this model over ZXI is due to GPS.

1. GPS is flop & as not of any use.

2. the entire infotainment system doesn't have remote control even at extra cost. Sales people told me you have to download software on mobile & operate from it. I don't know who will do this. assuming i am sitting back & talking on phone how will operate remote from mobile so its complete nonsense.

3. sitting position at driver seat - Even if i drive for 1 hour my upper back pains. i drove my last car(Dzire) which is sold to true value maruti 117000km. i never had this problem in whole 5.5years. Please let me know how to over come this??????

GPS-This system itself is joke. i was amazed when i went to showroom Kothari wheels viman nagar sales people was not aware how to use this system. they were equally surprised to see the system not functioning as per we searched places on mobile. even my apartment in Pune & Mumbai is not shown on the screen.

Initially I thought that system is not upgraded i went to following service stations of Maruti to find out & update the system 1. Shivam autozone Mumbai Kandivali

2. Kothari wheels - viman nagar

3. Sai service - Wagholi pune

Finally sai service wagholi gave me number of one of the person of Sai service Deccan who was having software & aware of the system. I felt like finally I found scientist for this system. people at Kothari wheel showroom saying that person at hadapasar service center who is not available for 8 days so nothing can be done. I was not aware that maruti is running entire show on 1 or 2 people. further as per Maruti its standard feature & it will show only whats loaded in the maps & not where we wish to go. Dont even think about buying it.

Overall car is gooddont buy ZXI+ with GPS as system doesnot work at all

I have purchased Ciaz Zxi petrol on April 2nd 2015. After driving about 3,500 Kms and also a long drive from Hyderabad to Chennai I am submitting this review. The new Ciaz has real elegant looks. The front chrome grill , split tail lamps , aerodynamic shape adds to its styling.

This car is very stable on highways at 120 kmph speed.

The noiseless petrol engine, Automatic climate control AC , bluetooth and audio controls on steering wheels supports a very comfortable driving experience. More space , rear AC vents adds to comfortable back seat long drive.

Pick up is very good. I never felt this machine underpower at any point.

This car has given me mileage of 17.0 kmpl on highway .

Best Features - Keyless entry , Push button start and stop , Rear sunshade, Projector Headlamps, Height adjustable drivers seat, large boot space.

Needs to improve - There is nothing much to improve. However I have noticed fuel pump noice as soon as we start the engine, I really dont know whether it is common in all vehicles or with my vehicle.

Overall, I am a satisfied owner of this stylish, elegent and featureful sedan from Maruti Suzuki at this price. Its really value for money and a must buy.

 

Good Fuel EconomyFuel pump noice

To all the haters out there, I own a few more cars like Bmw 530 D, INFINITY Q 50 D 2.2, and will let everyone know these cars are more than 35-45 Lacs worth so you try to justify the price with what once gets, I bought the RS in dec for 12 lacks and for the price I can't complain at all.

U got to compare apple's with apple's not orange's. Maruti has done a exceptional job and made one of the best car which is not only value for money but quality, comfort and space and has the best entertainment system and sfe.

Well does anyone go with 12 lacs and ask for a lambo? Don't think so. just because you have to dont make bad comments, I am proud to own  the Ciaz RS and a proud Indian as it is biuld in Inida and the company has put in a lot of effort to give me the best Bang for the Buck.

I love it and enjoy driving it- Happy Motoring.

vlaue (Bnag for the Buck)can't complaint

Exterior This beauty define class. Very attractive exteriors, specifically the tail. This car looks best in white. I wanted to buy silver and end up buying ciaz in white but no regret. It looks amazing in this color.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) I took test drive of almost every cars in this segment and no doubt this one is the most spacious. It has ample space for leg room both in front and back. Very comfortable and must buy for someone who drives with family. The boot is big and can easily store 4 big suitcases and 3 hand bags. I was told by many people that this car is not powerful and it's not worth the price but i must say i am driving it since 30th March, 2015 and done 600km so far and very happy with performance.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox I drove to a speed of 110 so far and you don't feel the speed it's so steady and no noise of engine. I have ZXi (Petrol) and giving me a mileage of 15 and hope to improve after 1st service. Gear box is smooth, it gives you a sound when you change gear which gives you a feel of driving sports car.

Final Words Suzuki keep it up.

Areas of improvement Turbo Missing.....!!!

It's spacious, powerful, rich interiorsmissing turbo

Exterior The car is superbly built. Has an excellent shape to beat the new honda city. It beats the honda city in all segments.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) I own a zxi+ and the car has all the features one would want in a new purchase. It gives features of a luxury segment car for the best price in the sedan range! The car in comparison was Honda city which fails when it comes to giving features in the car. The dashboard is a complete fail for the new honda city, which gave me a reason to buy Ciaz.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Excellent.

Ride Quality & Handling Perfect.

Final Words A muxt buy who would want to worth his money and likes all features when it comes to spending!

The other cars in comparison are honda city and verna, which completely fail with fuel effeciency, features and space. The new honda city is too simple from the dashboard and does not offer the features which comes in ciaz at the price. Verna on the other hand does not offer fuel efficiency, does not have back ac vents and no features what so ever in comparison!

Areas of improvement NA.

Gives you luxury car features and space for the price!Nothing till now!

Exterior After a long wait , with lot of excietment,  Maruti launched a new Sedan - Ciaz, we were lucky to get delivery before Diwali.

It looks a hybrid of SX4 and new City and it doesn't impress you on exteriors however you will not be disappointed by its first looks. .

After a more thorough examination you will find it has some good exterior features like telescopic headlamps, indicators on ORVMs (internally adjustable) in lower versions also like that of mine, etc.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) What impresses is greaaattt space both in front and back. I drove down to Jaipur from Delhi and back with my family and It was a great confortable drive for us. Including me, we were total five members (we all are tall in my family) in the car and no body complained about the discomfort. Great legroom and not to forget its extra spacious boot.

My car (Vxi+) is definately loaded with many features which are usually not found in many cars at entery level versions. Finishing inside is also good, Maruti should have more focused on finishing on the interiors of doors which gives cheap plastic feel. 2 din music system with 6 speakers is really beauty.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Except for its hard transmission, driving Ciaz is a pleasure. Till now in 11 days I have driven it around 850Kms and the average of around 17Kms/Ltr has come as a pleasent surprise to me. If it is 17Kms/Ltr in the mixed condition w/o even first service than who needs a diesel car.

Though petrol engine is just OK, however sometimes it lacks in power and demands for a slightly more powerful engine.

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is good. Can't comment much on handling except being lengthy, car needs to be driven with extra care on roads to avoid any brush-ups.

Final Words Maruti has come out with a good sedan which is feature rich at a very very competitive price. Looking at its price, its minor shortcomings can be easiely ignored.

Areas of improvement Engine pick up..and some on exterior..over all the car is very good and if u want ot purchase it once u should purchase this car for maximum u can hold this car for seven years.

have to increase the fuel economygood interior

Exterior Very slim and Good looking outlook of car,from side view look likes c class mercedies,projector  head lamps get extra classly look from front,rear side also look reach feel for car.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Very nice desined interrior, all fuctions fitted conveniently for driver,but plastic parts are poor quality, very spaciues for rear passenger then front, suspention is very good and soft comper to other maruti cars.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Simply gret desinged for economical,smooth punch engine.intial pickup is poor but after 2000 rpm of engine turbo kicks speed. Incovenient in city driving and very cool for long drive.i m crossed 40000 km. my experience is very good. i feel fresh after long highway driving from pune to manglore about 750 km because of soft suspenction and space. i get milage 20 kpl in highway and 18 kpl in city which is economicay for single person also.

Ride Quality & Handling This car not for sporty driving.

Final Words Best car in this segment than other car.

Areas of improvement Noise from dash board must to reqqire to improve.

Good fuel economy 20 kpl,nice pick up after speed 100 km/hmr , less maintance cost, good tyre lifeless pickup in city driving i.e. in under 60 km/hmr,noise from dash board while driving on off road
