Maruti Suzuki Ciaz Diesel Goes OUT...
As it is well Known that Maruti Suzuki was in the process of phasing out all diesel models before the implementation of BSVI norms.
In progrss to this, the Diesel Variant of CIAZ have been discontinued with the model removed from Maruti`s website too.
The Maruti Dealers have also stopped accepting bookings for the same.
Two engine options were part of the Ciaz diesel line-up. There was the tried-and-tested 90hp, 1.3-litre Multijet unit that was paired with a mild-hybrid system and a 5-speed manual gearbox, and an in-house developed 95hp, 1.5-litre unit coupled to a 6-speed manual gearbox.
Production of Fiat-sourced 1.3-litre unit was ceased earlier this year. The in-house developed 1.5-litre diesel engine only ever found its way in two models – the Ciaz and Ertiga – and had a very short lifespan of just over a year. However, Maruti may consider upgrading the 1.5 unit to BS6 standards in the future should there be a demand for it.
Now on, the Ciaz sedan will be available with just a 105hp, 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine with mild-hybrid tech
