Additional features include cupholders, fabric seats, foldable rear seats with a 60:40 split, and fog lamps - front and rear.
The Ciaz is powered by a 1.5-litre 4-cylinder petrol engine that generates 104 horsepower and 130 Nm of torque, offering a balanced performance for urban driving. In comparison, the Hyundai Accent and Honda City come equipped with a 1.4-litre and a 1.5-litre engine, respectively.

With a 43-litre fuel tank and an average consumption of 6L for every 100 kilometers, filling up the 1.5L GLX will cost approximately AED 77.4, based on the current fuel price of AED 1.8 per liter for unleaded gasoline 95. For an average commute of 25,000 kilometers per year, you can expect to make around 7 fill-ups, totaling AED 3,328 annually.
The Suzuki Ciaz is well-regarded for its spacious interior and comfortable ride, making it a popular choice among families. It also boasts a range of standard safety features that align with modern driving expectations. Additionally, the Ciaz's maintenance costs are generally lower compared to its competitors, which is an important consideration for buyers in the UAE market.
