 The vehicle comes with various segment first attributes, including a trim powered by a BS VI compliant one litre turbo engine.
 The vehicle will also have variants powered by BS VI diesel engine as well as trims with AMT technology.

India's leading car manufacturer, <keyword id="44883" type="CITY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Maruti-Suzuki">Maruti Suzuki</keyword> is bullish about the new Maruti Ciaz - its latest mid-sized sedan for the country. Maruti had unveiled the concept version of the Ciaz earlier this year at the 2014 <keyword id="73154" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Auto-Expo">Auto Expo</keyword> and as these first undisguised pictures suggest the production version of the Maruti <keyword id="6911" type="CITY" weightage="20" keywordseo="suzuki">Suzuki</keyword> Ciaz looks like a promising sedan.
 The company has been struggling to have a successful run with its sedan models above the <keyword id="484565" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="Maruti-Dzire">Maruti DZire</keyword>, while arch rival <keyword id="596" type="CITY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Hyundai">Hyundai</keyword> has hit the sweet spot with Indian car buyers with its sedans like the Hyundai Verna and Hyundai Elantra. But, this time around Maruti Suzuki is taking no chances as the Ciaz appears to have most things working in its favour as of now.

	Recently, a bunch of production ready Maruti Suzuki Ciaz were caught resting their heels in the company's Manesar manufacturing facility in Haryana. The company is working on a war footing to meet the scheduled launch of the Ciaz by second half of September 2014.
 Design wise the new Maruti Suzuki Ciaz strikes a good balance between the last generation SX4 and the Kizashi luxury sedan. The four slat chrome grille features a large Suzuki logo, while the headlight design is very distinct in the segment and is expected to feature projector lamps as standard fitment. The multi-layered bootlid design and shape of the taillight makes the Ciaz resemble the new <keyword id="31353" type="COMPANY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Honda-city">Honda City</keyword>'s rear end quite a bit.

	The interiors are inspired by the more premium Maruti Kizashi and would feature a two-tone dashboard with integrated entertainment system, steering wheel mounted audio controls, electric OVRMs and AC vents even for rear seat passengers among others.

	Optional features could include 5-inch display for the infotainment system, reverse parking camera, ABS, 16-inch alloy wheels, climate control air-conditioning, additional airbags and push button start to name a few.
 Pricing of the Maruti Suzuki Ciaz would be on par to the <keyword id="20630" type="CITY" weightage="20" keywordseo="Honda">Honda</keyword> City and Hyundai Verna and is expected to start from Rs 7.5 lakh onwards

 This fall is in spite of increasing discounts. Bowing down to the intense sales pressure, Maruti had also been increasing its ‘total cash discounts’ offered to consumers. While Alto models saw an 8% increase in discounts as compared to June, the Celerio Automatic and Dzire Diesel versions saw a steep increase of 23% and 27% respectively. India’s largest car manufacturer Maruti Suzuki’s profits fell by 27.3%. It total sales for the first quarter of FY20 fell by 17.9% as compared to the same quarter last year. July brought no cheer for carmakers who are hoping for a possible turnaround. “Volume performance is expected to remain weak across segments due to a high-base effect, increasing cost of vehicle ownership, monsoon deficit and financing issues,” said a report by Emkay Global.
