The Maruti Suzuki Dzire is a compact sedan that is developed with the focus of maximizing fuel efficiency, comfort, and user experience. The car is based on the same platform that underlies the Suzuki Swift but offers more boot space along with a more family-centric configuration.
The Dzire comes equipped with a 1.2-liter naturally aspirated petrol engine that is mated to a fuel-efficient powertrain for smooth operation.
There are both 5-speed manual and 5-speed AMT transmissions available. Some variants also come equipped with CNG as an additional option, paired with a manual transmission.
Fuel efficiency is one of the biggest strengths of the Dzire. Petrol variants deliver excellent mileage in both city and highway driving conditions.
The CNG variant significantly reduces fuel costs for high-usage drivers. Performance is adequate and reliable, though the car is not intended to be sporty.
The Dzire’s interiors are designed to provide an optimized and comfortable experience. The seating is spacious, and the suspension handles uneven roads efficiently.
The dashboard layout is simple and easy to operate. Higher variants come equipped with a touchscreen infotainment system.
The car comes equipped with essential safety features such as dual airbags, ABS with EBD, and rear parking sensors.
Higher variants offer additional safety features like ISOFIX child seat mounts. Overall braking and handling feel responsive and confidence-inspiring.
The Dzire is easy to maneuver on congested city roads due to its compact dimensions.
It also offers a large boot space suitable for weekend trips. Ground clearance is adequate for regular city roads and speed breakers.
Key highlights include touchscreen infotainment with smartphone connectivity, automatic climate control in higher variants, steering-mounted controls, electrically adjustable ORVMs, and CNG fuel options on select variants.
These features focus primarily on convenience and everyday usability rather than luxury.

"If you are reading this review just go and purchase because its mileage is the best in its segment. The performance and pickup are just amazing. This car is full of features and you will feel very comfortable while driving or traveling in this car. Everything is good but only build quality and safety are lacking in this car."
"I have a 2018 VDI, maintenance cost is too lower than others even spare parts are also so cheap than others. However, comfort is average in the front seats but in the back its a disaster with three passengers. Build quality is so cheap I just scrape my car and the bumper came out it happened 4 times, the body is just like a tin box. The engine is so smooth and it gives you the best mileage and unbelievable performance."
"The overall delivery experience was good but the MSIL staffs are not friendly enough. I choose this car due to it's legendary name plate but unfortunately it is not up to the mark. Service costs are high and the car is getting easily damaged by small service costs hover between 3500 to 7000(5th service). Pros:- 1) Refined and peppy engine 2) Excellent weight to power ratio 3) Ultimate mileage machine Cons:- 1) Service is a niggle 2) Very bad built quality both exterior and interior. 3) Interiors is not up to the mark. 4) Not a VFM car 5) A lot of rattling sound inside the car."
"The Maruti Suzuki Dzire has exceeded my expectations with its smooth handling and excellent fuel efficiency. The car is perfect for city drives, offering a comfortable and refined experience. The performance on highways is commendable, and the value for money is unbeatable in this segment. Highly recommend it for those looking for a reliable and affordable car. "
"The Dzire is the ideal family car, with ample space and great fuel economy. The interiors are well-designed, and the safety features are reassuring. Although the ride quality is good, I feel the build quality could be better. Overall, it offers a great balance of comfort, efficiency, and affordability. I’ve driven it for several months, and I’m still very happy with my choice."
"The Dzire has been a solid performer in terms of mileage and driving comfort. It’s easy to drive, and the engine performance is smooth. However, the build quality is something I’d like to see improved, especially in terms of interior fittings. That said, it offers excellent value for money with a reliable engine and good service network, making it an excellent option for first-time car buyers."
