New Maruti Desire to hit Indian Market this Month - All you need to know
Maruti Suzuki has finally revealed the much-anticipated fourth-generation Dzire for the Indian market, adding several upgrades in design, technology, and features that make this compact sedan even more competitive.
Based on the popular Swift platform, the new Dzire now boasts a refreshed exterior and interior along with a new 1.2-litre Z Series petrol engine.
Designed to rival models like the Hyundai Aura, Honda Amaze, and Tata Tigor, the Dzire continues to assert itself as a top choice in the sub-four-metre sedan segment.
With pre-bookings now open for ₹11,000, the 2024 Maruti Dzire is set to launch officially on November 11, with deliveries expected to start soon after.
Here’s a detailed look at what the new Dzire brings to the table.
The 2024 Maruti Dzire showcases a bolder and more sophisticated exterior, thanks to several key design changes. At the front, the sedan features a fresh, stylish grille with horizontal slats, flanked by sleek new LED headlamps that lend a sharp and modern look. The redesigned front bumper complements the grille, adding a more aggressive stance to the car.
On the sides, the Dzire comes equipped with machined alloy wheels that elevate the overall appearance and give the car a premium feel. Moving to the rear, the Dzire has also received a new bumper and stylish LED taillights with triangular inserts, enhancing its visual appeal. The chrome insert on the bootlid adds a touch of elegance, ensuring the Dzire stands out among its competitors.
The interiors of the 2024 Dzire bring a mix of functionality, comfort, and advanced technology. The cabin now sports a dual-tone upholstery, creating a pleasant, inviting ambiance. A standout addition is the new three-spoke steering wheel, which brings a fresh look and provides easy access to audio and cruise control settings.
At the center of the dashboard, Maruti has included a large, nine-inch touchscreen infotainment system that serves as the focal point of the updated tech in the cabin. The infotainment system supports seamless smartphone integration, allowing users to stay connected on the go. The Dzire also comes with rear AC vents and automatic climate control, ensuring all passengers enjoy a comfortable ride.
Among the highlights of the 2024 Dzire is the segment-first electric sunroof, a feature increasingly sought after by Indian buyers for the premium feel it adds.
Additionally, the Dzire is equipped with a blind-spot monitor and a 360-degree camera, providing enhanced visibility and safety, especially during tight parking and urban driving scenarios. These features place the Dzire ahead of some of its closest rivals in terms of in-car technology and safety.
The 2024 Dzire is powered by Maruti’s new 1.2-litre, three-cylinder Z Series petrol engine. This unit produces a respectable 80 bhp and 112 Nm of torque, ensuring a balance of performance and fuel efficiency, making it ideal for both city commutes and longer drives.
Maruti offers the Dzire with both a five-speed manual transmission and an AMT (Automated Manual Transmission), providing customers with flexibility based on their driving preferences.
For those looking for a more cost-effective and eco-friendly option, Maruti Suzuki also offers the new Dzire in a CNG variant. This option is likely to appeal to budget-conscious buyers, as CNG is generally cheaper and can significantly reduce running costs.
The 2024 Dzire will be available in four distinct trims: LXi, VXi, ZXi, and ZXi+. This range of trims allows customers to choose a version that best suits their needs and budget. Each variant is expected to be loaded with features appropriate to its price point, giving buyers flexibility in terms of affordability and amenities.
The top-tier ZXi+ trim is expected to feature all the bells and whistles, including the electric sunroof, 360-degree camera, and premium upholstery, while the LXi and VXi variants will focus more on core essentials, making them more budget-friendly options.
In addition to the blind-spot monitor and 360-degree camera, the new Dzire also comes equipped with a comprehensive set of safety features aimed at protecting occupants and enhancing driving confidence. While the exact safety ratings are yet to be confirmed, Maruti’s commitment to safety is evident in the thoughtful inclusion of features such as dual airbags, ABS with EBD, and rear parking sensors across the lineup.
These features align with Maruti’s recent moves to incorporate advanced safety technology in its vehicles, which is especially appealing to family-oriented buyers who prioritize protection on the road.
With its stylish new design, tech upgrades, and innovative features, the 2024 Maruti Dzire is well-positioned to take on its primary competitors in the sub-four-metre sedan segment, including the Hyundai Aura, Honda Amaze, and Tata Tigor. Maruti aims to retain its leadership in this space by offering a product that not only meets but exceeds the evolving expectations of Indian buyers.
The fourth-generation Maruti Suzuki Dzire represents a significant upgrade in both style and substance. Its refreshed design, coupled with modern technology and safety features, makes it a compelling choice for buyers looking for an affordable yet premium compact sedan. With its official prices to be announced soon, the Dzire is poised to continue its legacy as a bestseller in the Indian market. Interested customers can pre-book the new Dzire for just ₹11,000, making it easier than ever to secure a spot among the first owners of this upgraded model.
