As per the spotter, the test mule had a sunroof-like cutout. Maruti could add this feature to the Ciaz to level up with rivals Honda City and Hyundai Verna. The spy shots also reveal a revised tail lamp cluster with repositioned reverse lamps and smaller turn indicators. Other changes to the rear, if any, remain hidden beneath the dense camouflage. Previously published images revealed a redone front end with a new bumper and a sleeker grille.

The 2018 Maruti Ciaz will be offered with new 1.5 L petrol and diesel engines replacing the existing 1.4 L petrol and 1.3 L diesel units. The petrol engine will be a 1.5 L K15B unit, which will benefit from SHVS mild hybrid technology.
