The fourth generation of the Maruti Suzuki Dzire has been launched starting at ₹6.79 lakh, ex-showroom. Maruti Suzuki has claimed to have invested ₹1,000 crore for the development of the 2024 Dzire. While the earlier generations of the Maruti Suzuki Dzire were often referred to as ‘Swift with a boot slapped on’, with the new model, Maruti Suzuki has taken a completely different approach.

The 2024 Dzire shares no design elements with the 2024 Maruti Suzuki Swift. With the new model, the ‘Dzire’ has become a standalone product for the company, at least in terms of design. Apart from the design, the 2024 Maruti Suzuki Dzire also gets a new heart, the same from the 2024 Maruti Suzuki Swift. The 2024 Maruti Suzuki Dzire becomes the second model from the carmaker to utilise the new Z series petrol engine.

The 2024 Dzire uses the same 1.2-litre, three-cylinder Z-Series petrol engine that made its debut earlier in the Maruti Suzuki Swift. In the Dzire, the engine produces 80 bhp and 111 Nm of torque. Transmission options include a 5-speed manual transmission and an AMT. Additionally, a CNG powertrain is also available which produces69bhp and 102Nm, with a claimed mileage of 33.73 km/kg.

While the starting price of the 2024 Maruti Suzuki Dzire is ₹40,000 more expensive than the outgoing model, the top end is now ₹75,000 pricier than the outgoing model’s top variant. Here’s a quick look at the what each of the variants of the 2024 Dzire offer
