The engine provides good traction despite its 1400 cc displacement, and some compare it to 1600 cc engines. Loading passengers and luggage into the car doesn't have a significant impact on traction. The engine sound is quiet, especially at constant speeds, but as the speed increases, the noise increases due to the chain drive belt and metal-enclosed gears.

Fuel consumption is between 13 and 14 km/l, according to some owners' reviews of the car with and without air conditioning.

The car isn't widely available in the Egyptian market, and the fact that it wasn't offered last year may seem problematic for many, given the expected cessation of spare parts. Although some buyers confirm that it's a very good car, its limited availability and widespread availability may pose a resale problem.

However, the main problem remains the presence of other, more widespread cars in its class, and their sales and distribution in the used market and resale are better than the Ciaz, especially since the comparison between maintenance and spare parts availability for other cars in the same class is better, giving it a resale advantage over the Ciaz.
