Until and unless you drive a car then you can make a opinion. Well I drove Ciaz last month and immediately decided to buy one in replacement for my vitz. Now driving my Ciaz since three weeks , about 900 kms done , amazing drive this car has , unbelievable mileage and comfort. Trust me I still have my vitz with me , which I’m going to sell soon , I would definitely not hesitated in selling it on loss if I would not have liked or found some sort of flaw in it. I have not driven 1.3 xli so will not comment as I had owned turbo civic before , and that car gave me a night mare the 8/9 Months I drove. Three times media change and not to discuss the terrible knocking problem it had. I have driven city auto 1.3 , and found Ciaz much much better than city. Interior wise suprisingly it has more leg room and trunk space than my 2017 A4. Not kidding. Cars parked side by side. Interior wise the quality of plastic and seats compensate the boring dull part in my opinion. Exterior wise it’s my personal choice I like the shape to some extent , like I said it’s a replacement for my vitz , so much better choice , as I get a trunk , better interior space , and a much power full engine. By the way a person I know owns a auto gli 1.3 , and he says it’s under powered and occasionally knocks on heavy load. Hope my review helps out.
