    यह सदियों से मेरा साथी है

    Hi Im Omar from Shillong, a premier hillstation from India remote Northeast. I have just purchased my White Vdi on 15th March. Initially doubtful & regretful. By now the Not so ideal looks have grown on me!Not Badstyling indeed.Having travelled to southeast asia,the Dzire looks  Good compared to the numerous small category sedans around SE Asia : (eg)Toyota salunas,Vois,ugly nissans &protons! Infact it is perfect for us Indians and I should thank MSIL for launching such a good product.Pefect marriage of Japanese Style & Technology, carneverous Indian Boot Space & creamy Italian DDIS engine!

    Ease of Manouverability:- Ideal Urban Jungle Sedan with Tight proportions

    Though a sedan it drives like a small hatch,only till you encounter a narrow gulley & tightspot!I often forget this is a large car.Swift DNA means it is sporty in nature.Looks very sporty (esp after some modding )compared to the dated 90's side profile of the boxy Manza/Logan.

    Dzire's lines are alluring, muscular flowing with pronounced bulbous wheel arches & Bimmer inspired elements intergrated to the sexy rear!With some changes the car looks like a perfect well designed sedan.

    Exterior: FRONT END MUST BE CHANGED!

     Overall proportions are alright. Rear end is the best view of the entire car wish MSIL changes the FRONT END .Why pay 1-2 lac more out of your hard earned money for a Hatch Lookalike!Ive changed my front end   with an aftermarket FRP Bumper from Moni Designs ,Delhi.My Dizee looks great now, very Yankee design !(* see my photo gallery on carwale)

    Another suggestion is are the ugly Black B & C Pillars !Doesnt look good for a sedan.Removing them makes the car more visually appealing & sedanish from the side profile! A Boot spoiler completes the sedan shape of the Dzire .It doesnt look like a Swift with a bum now!

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

     Dull boring black & Silver accents. MSIL should beige-up the interiors with faux wood trims ala Accent executive/Manza. Rear seat slightly cramped compared to upcoming competition.Well finished though coz its Japanese.I

    Interior carpeting resembles a coarse  army Blanket!Brighter Grey /Beige carpeting will answer this area.

    Seats are large and supportive esp on Higways and traffic Jams! Rear seats are so comfortable that passengers just doze off in slumber only to be woken by a large pothole & speedbreaker!

    Passenger cabin is large and roomy as it is derieved from the swift big hatch so is the head & shoulder room! Very Comfy indeed with a decent Ride!

     

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

     This is probably the CRUX of the car. Diesel Dizee just roars up all hillslopes in Shillong,effortlessly that too with the A/C on once the Turbo is charged! Running costs of an enfield motorcycle!Petrol heads beware!Gear shifting is just too smooth,perfect for women drivers!

    Ride Quality & Handling

     Ride quality is very sedan,feels it is a much more expensive car than it actually is esp,when cruising along highways.cornering quite good with upgraded 185 Bridgestone Potenzas.However good over bumps only NOT  large potholes.Fortunately, we have very good smooth (but narrow roads) here in Shillong!

    Final Words

     Perfect Budget Diesel sedan that can put many expensive sedans to Shame!

     Dzire is a sedan revolution in India.MADE FOR INDIA SEDAN! Best Middleclass sedan in India below Honda City. Cheap spares & Gigantic Maruti service.

    Good value for money = Excellent Resale value.

    Areas of improvement  

     (1) Different Front end (2) Upmarket interiors& carpeting  (3) 15-16" Wheel Rims & Fatter rubber

    (4) remove the name "Swift" &  simply call it Dzire!(5) reduce waiting period or MSIL will soon lose out to undeserving competition.

     

    Ok style for a sedan, creamy diesel mill , I Smile every time I top her tank with Diesel!!Spartan cave interiors & common hatch front. She hates potholes!
