- Excellent boot space
- Comfortable ride quality even on bad roads
- 5-star Global NCAP crash test rating
- High mileage in regular driving conditions
- Highlight features like sunroof, 360 degree camera and 9-inch touchscreen

Maruti Ciaz

Maruti Dzire
- Engine refinement and performance could have been better
- AMT transmission upshifts quite early leaving less usable power
- Low headroom for people over 6 feet
