The much awaited new Maruti Ciaz Facelift has been revealed as the new Suzuki Alivio Pro at the Chengdu International Auto Show. The Alivio is the same car as the Ciaz and therefore, the new look model, in the below images will launch in India in 2018. We expect the facelift Ciaz to debut at the Auto Expo 2018 and a launch afterwards.
