      The Maruti Ciaz is a well-built sedan with excellent legroom and a smooth, comfortable driving experience. It offers a luxurious feel while being very low on maintenance. I’m happy to own the Ciaz—it’s truly a great car.

      This is a sturdy, eco-friendly, and trouble-free car. It offers very comfortable driving with ample seating space and a large boot. The car handles Indian roads well and has smooth brakes. It requires no major repairs even up to 1,00,000 km, and the maintenance and running costs are low. Workshops are easily available, and the car needs very little turning space, making it convenient to use in daily conditions.
