2024 Maruti Suzuki Dzire Vs Old Dzire: Mileage, Price, Features, & More

All generations of Maruti Suzuki Dzire sedans have been very successful in India. Now, with the launch of the 4th generation Dzire sedan in India, we expect the model to replicate the same success of its predecessors.

Also, with a 5-Star safety rating from Global NCAP, we expect the 4th-gen Maruti Suzuki Dzire to attract the interest of a wider spectrum of people. That being said, here is how the new-gen Dzire compares against its predecessor.

2024 Maruti Suzuki Dzire Vs Old Dzire

Design

In terms of design, all previous generations of Maruti Suzuki Dzire sedans have looked very similar to the respective generation of Swift hatchbacks. However, the latest-gen Dzire differs in this respect with its unique front-end design.

In fact, the 2024 Maruti Suzuki Dzire looks more similar to the Honda Amaze sedan than the outgoing iteration of the Swift hatchback. That being said, the new Dzire looks a lot more premium compared to the new Swift with its sleek headlamps and large front grille.

Interior

The new Maruti Suzuki Dzire's interior looks a lot more premium than the model it replaces with its layered dashboard design and a free-standing infotainment unit. However, the new-gen Dzire loses sportier-looking hooded dials compared to the older model.

That being said, the overall interior of the new Dzire feels a significant step up from the previous-gen Dzire. Also, design touches such as toggle switches for climate control, and horizontal design elements make the interior of the new Dzire look and feel a lot more premium.

Features

The latest-egeneration Maruti Suzuki Dzire comes with a long list of features, a few which are also first for its segment. Some of the standout features on the new Dzire include electric sunroof, 360-degree camera, a 9-inch infotainment unit, automatic climate control, rear AC vents, and LED headlights.

Powertrain

Powertrain is one of the major difference between the new and old Dzire models. The previous-gen Dzire used a 1.2-litre, 4-cylinder petrol engine with 90hp and 113Nm of torque, while the CNG version put out 77.5hp and 98.5Nm of torque.

In comparison, the new Dzire uses a similar-sized 3-cylinder petrol engine with 82hp and 112Nm of torque. Furthermore, the CNG version of this engine puts out just 69.75hp and 101.8Nm of torque.

That being said, both iterations of the Dzire sedan were offered with 5-speed manual gearbox as standard and an optional 5-speed AMT unit. Also, the CNG versions exclusively come with a 5-speed manual transmission.
