मारुति सुज़ुकी स्विफ़्ट डिज़ायर [2010-2011] यूज़र रिव्यूज़

Hi,
I got my Dzire VXI (Azure Grey) on 9th Aug 2009. It is my first car and very much satisfied with its performance on the whole. Recently when we went to beach the front tyres were struck in the sand and I had to reverse with high accelaration and observed smoke and burning smell from the engine. I took to the dealer and the supervisor told me that I would have accidentally thumped both clutch & accelarator asynchronously which damaged clutch plates to a little bit and this caused the smoke and burning smell as metal-metal contact happened. The replacement of the clutch is not covered under warranty and need to be born by me :(. It just covered 250kms and not sure the issue was because of the poor clutch plates or it is my fault. Does anyone faced the same problem ? I'm new to driving 4 wheeler and any tips are appreciated :) Thanks in advance & enjoy the riding !!

Fuel economy, sporty look, ground clearance, smooth engine and gear shiftingBad interiors with cheap plastic, less rear space, poor suspension,

Exterior: Most people cringe at the first sight of the Dzire, but there is more to the car than meets the eye. Once you show them the humongous boot, the acceptance is better. From the rear 3-quarters. it is not a bad looking car at all.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Get inside the drivers seat and one will be at once comfortable with the seat position, the view, the gearshift etc. The interior fit and finish is generally blemish-free. The rear seat is very comfortable for 2 adults, but 3 medium sized people is not a big squeeze. The various controls are easy to reach, although electric mirror adjustment would help. Airconditioning and audio system are quite adequate for daily needs. The boot is massive and can (if filled intelligently) swallow lot of space. In fact, a well filled trunk also contributes to the stability on long journeys, as I discovered recently.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The engine is very well refined for a diesel, and first-timers are often hardpressed to confirm if it is petrol or a diesel. The gearshift is very precise, except that the reverse gear sometimes doesnt 'slot-in' perfectly. 2200rpm to 3000 rpm is the golden band for the car, and it feels like a jet on a take off run.One actually needs to be careful not to rev the car too quickly because it can shoot past 80kph in fourth gear, and the turbo can be very addictive-so need to be careful in the city areas. Fuel economy is around19 to 20 kmpl.

Ride Quality & Handling The car is best driven sedately, and the steering gives a rather instantaneous feedback, which may not be ideal at high speeds. This is not very well supported by the 165/80 tyres on the L& V versions. The car has a tendency to oscillate upon sudden braking . This tendency reduces considerably if it is well occupied with luggage.

 Braking is quite sharp.

Final Words

May not be the best looking car, but is the most practical, VFM entry level sedan. There is no compromise on performance, space is adequate for a family of 4 (or Parents+Grandparents+1 kid), Boot is , well designed for the Indian family. In other words, the perfect family sedan.

 

Areas of improvement

Final Words NOT SATISFIED WITH DELAY OF DELEVARY

 

Areas of improvement   DELEVARY FACT IS VERY IMPORTANT COMPANY SHOULD HAVE GIVEN RIGHT WORD OF DELEVARY OF CAR.IT SHOULD NOT DELAY OF SINGLE DAY .

AS I EXPERENCE I BOOKED SWIFT DEZIRE VDI MODEL ON 7/2/2011

THEY GIVEN ME DELEVARY DATE    4/4/2011

BUT THEY DENING WITH FURTHER EXTENDED DATE AS 21/4/2011

AGAIN THEY GIVENG EXTENDING DATE AS AROUND MORE 2 MONTHS

WRONG  WRONG WRONG

NOT FAIR

AT THE TIME OF BOOKING THEY ARE JUST CALLING GIVING ALL ASSURANCE ABOUT DELEVARY OF DATE AND ALL...

BUT NOW IF WE ARE SHOWING THEIR WORD WHICH NOT VALU FOR THEM THEN THEY ARE SAYING TAKE YOUR MONEY WITH INTREST AS I HAVE BOOKED WITH 51000/--

SO NO VALUE FOR THEIR WORD AS  WELL AS I AM WAITING SINCE LAST 3MONTHS NO VALUE........

TOO MUCH DISAPPOINMENT ........

NOW JUST WAITING WITH TRUST LESS THOUGHT.....

 

good value for moneywaiting

 

I have purchased Swift DZire LXi after much screening in 2010 and could get delivery after almost 2 months on 21st July,2010. I opted for Lxi as my daily usage could be limited and I had SONY CD player with Explode speekers of my old car.

Exteriors have been good and interiors are comfortable. Engine performance is excellent. Gearbox works fine.Even the city drive gives a feel of Makkhan on good roads. Till date of writing this review i.e. 7th Sept., 2011 I have completed 12950 Kms in different conditions. Three services are completed. I have made  1 visit to Baroda ( Mumbai to Baroda Approx 420 KM  ) , 2 visits to Parli / Ambejogai ( ahead of Ahmed Nagar : One way Distance approx 480 km ) , 4 visits to Konkan area ( one way apprx. 350 km ) and many visits Mumbai to Pune and back ( To and Fro distance 380 - 390 km). Many of these were during mansoon. It has been a very comforatble driving experience. Even after driving 450km + at a stretch in a day and over 1000km in 2 or 3 days, at my age of 49 years, I do not feel tired . Before purchasing this car, I had not driven like this. There had been a gap of 3 years in driving. But from day one, I feel very much comfortable. I have touched max 160 on Mumbai Pune express way while driving along with 3 family members and during this 13 months driving experience, I rarely rememebr anybody surpassing me on highways. I was at ease in ghats in konkan areas as well.

I get milage of 11.25km in Mumbai local drive and approx 13.40 km in outstation drives. Imrovement in milage is always desirable. My brother who has been daily driving res to office and back  for over 20 years ( and has used three different cars ) also appreciates the Dzire as Excellent.

Final Words Excellent car from Maruti : good for Indian roads and long drive is pleasing experience.

Driving is very comfortableNil

I have clocked up 1,400 KMs on my Swift Dzire. Yesterday, driving up a very steep mountain hill, the engine lost power, stalling and after several attempts I finally got the car moving and into a side lane. With smoke coming from the engine. I called the dealership. They sent someone, who said the clutch was gone. I asked why. He replied BAD DRIVING. I am so angry at their lack of care or concern. The car showed no sign of problem before this happened, there was no indication that the clutch was slipping at all. Gear changes had been very smooth and I was enjoying driving it (I have driven manual cars for over 25 years) Now, from another reviewer I read that there were faulty clutches installed in 2008 models and these were not recalled. Shame on them.

The section of road the car stalled on was very dangerous and they take no responsibility for what happened. Shame on them.

And they tell me the clutch isnt covered by warranty. I asked them to bring a tow truck, instead they brought a man who drove it back to the dealership (some one hour distant)

Take care,

Aileen

smooth handlingClutch,

The look of the car, brandname and approachable service are the key factors that has fascinated me. Had test drive of Swift Dzire - VXi and enjoyed it. Smooth running, good pick up, excellent manuoverability are some the factors worth  mentioning. But the factors that prick are-

 - Backward extension of cup/bottle holder beteen two front seats tells upon the comfort of the person sitting at the middle of the back seat.

- Low mileage

- No facility of adjustable steering and font seat.

- No USB port on music player

Hope, Maruti Udyog  must take a note of it. as I am on the verge purchasing a car, I doubt that my suggestion would benefit me. Nevertheless I am hopeful of an early analysis of my suggestion by Maruti Udyog.

I think my suggestion, if tested and found implementable should be duly rewarded.

 

Good look, very good service networkExtended cup holder, Low mileage

I was delivered my car much earlier than expected. Although dealer (Jay Bee in Dibrugarh) had said that the waiting period was for 3 months, I got the car home delivered in 15 days. I appreciate the sales division of the dealer.

The car is very good and I am happy with its performance. The ride is comfortable and the driving is a pleasure. The car has great pick up and a/c is very powerful. It has a very big boot space. I am very much happy with my car.

stylish interior, comfortable sitting position, great value for moneyrear leg space is less but enough

Exterior

 Poor rear visibility, requir sensor while driving in reverse

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Less front leg room, overall colour of interior is not good in VDi, otherwise all features are there for comfort in this much amount, that you will not get in other brand. AC and stereo are also good.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Difficult gera transmission in reverse initially, Not happy with suspension, poor road grip beyond 120km speed due to less tyre width in VDi. Engine noise is very low during driving, on highway you cant realise that you are driving diesel car. Excellent pick-up beyond 2000 rpm.

Ride Quality & Handling

 Handling even in city excellent. Small turning radius help a lote in city. High torque help in traffic.

Less pick-up intially.Poor break at high seed that may be due to high torque ?

Final Words

 Good valu for money. In this much amount we are getting all fetures of comfort and fuel economy.

Areas of improvement  

 Suspention and break

 

fuel economy and good value for moneyPoor break,bad suspension
