Maruti Suzuki Dzire Features And Overview

The Maruti Suzuki Dzire is a compact sedan built on a hatchback platform, so you get a separate boot without a big car's price. It seats five and has a 382 litre boot, which is why many buyers compare it with hatchbacks. It is popular with families and taxi owners.

A 1.2 litre three cylinder petrol powers it, making 82 bhp and 112.4 Nm, with a 5 speed manual or an AMT automatic. A factory CNG version brings the cheapest fuel bill, and it also comes with either gearbox. The engine suits calm, easy driving more than quick getaways.

The range opens at ₹6.31 Lakh for the LXi and tops out at ₹9.54 Lakh for the ZXi CNG AGS, across eleven trims. Only the ZXi+ trims, from ₹8.96 Lakh, add an electric sunroof, cruise control and a 360 camera. You can find the Dzire's on-road total once you have a trim in mind.

What makes this Maruti sedan such a steady seller is the mix of a real boot, low running cost and cheap upkeep. Maruti rates the petrol at 25.15 kmpl with the manual and 26.13 kmpl with the AMT, so picking the automatic saves fuel rather than wasting it. The CNG AGS goes furthest at 36.47 km/kg, and the Dzire mileage on petrol and CNG page breaks down every version.

From the VXi up, rear passengers get their own AC vents, a centre armrest with cup holders and fast charging USB ports. Every Dzire carries six airbags and ESP, even the base LXi. For a family that wants a boot without paying big-sedan money, it is an easy call, so compare the Dzire trims side by side.
