Maruti has finally unveiled the first facelift of its c-segment sedan, Ciaz. The new car is an incremental update to the outgoing model with minor tweaks made to the car's interiors and exteriors.

Images of the new Maruti Suzuki Facelift 2018 have been spotted without camouflage. Reportedly, the new car, which is due to launch in August this year, was spotted at Maruti Suzuki's stockyard in Haryana.

Sumant Banerjee, Associate Editor, Business Today, reviews the Toyota Yaris. Originally developed as the Vios for emerging markets where the need for a sedan smaller than the Corolla was felt, Yaris is to Toyota what City is to Honda. This car has all the attributes of a Toyota car, something that was missing in some ways in the Etios series. Yet, it comes at a time and in a segment that is fiercely competitive. The Hyundai Verna, longtime segment leader Honda City and current favorite Maruti Ciaz are all strong competitors. After a short drive in the outskirts of Bangalore, here is a low down on the new challenger.

Exactly a month from now when Toyota launches its maiden mid-size car Yaris in the Indian market, it would be its first new car launch in seven years. The last one to hit the roads was the Etios in 2010.
