We review the new Swift DZire

Maruti Suzuki had launched the Swift in last August, and now the automkaer is ready to unveil the DZire. The new DZire is shorter than 4 metres and hence it will get the excise cut.

What comes as a surprise is that Maruti Suzuki is offering the Swift DZire petrol with an option of autobox. The Swift DZire has some changes made in its cabin to make it look more premium compared to the Swift.

The Dzire is the Swift with a boot. So it was only a matter of time that the Dzire moved to being the new Swift with a boot rather than the old Swift with a boot. We had all been expecting that would happen and we were also expecting Maruti-Suzuki to chop off a bit of that spacious boot, like Tata Motors did with the Indigo to make the Indigo eCS. What we weren’t expecting though was for Maruti to discontinue the Dzire with a full boot and launch it just as a compact sedan in its second generation.
