Maruti Suzuki Dzire received its fourth-generation iteration just a few weeks back, which incorporates a plethora of changes in terms of an updated exterior and upgraded feature list. Available at an introductory price range of 6.79 lakh - 10.14 lakh (ex-showroom), it comes with a new 1.2-litre three-cylinder Z12E petrol engine, which replaced the erstwhile four-cylinder 1.2-litre petrol motor. The sub-compact sedan is available in seven colour choices and in four variants: LXi, VXi, ZXi and ZXi+.

The Maruti Suzuki Dzire VXi trim has been one of the bestselling variants of the sub-compact sedan. The VXi trim offers a host of features that are necessary and not available in the LXi trim.
