The Ciaz concept gets a custom paint job with a black contrast roof and wing mirror caps. The front sees a gloss-finish for the grille and a new bumper with LED lighting in the airdams. The headlights are also equipped with Bi-Xenon units.

The sides see large 18- or 19-inch alloy wheels with a low profile, and a thick chrome strip running through the door handles. Over to the back, the Ciaz concept gets a stubby spoiler with integrated stop lights, a new bumper with LED lights in the reflectors, a diffuser-like element and dual-chrome exhausts.

However, as mentioned earlier, the concept is likely a show car to churn interest in the Ciaz which has its Thai launch early next month. For Thailand, the Ciaz is expected to comply with the EcoCar rules, and would be powered by a 1.25-liter petrol engine mated to 5-speed manual and CVT gearboxes (engine and gearbox shared with the Thai Swift).
