Maruti Suzuki Swift DZire [2011-2015] User Reviews

Exterior The car has average exeterior, average looks, There have not been very much scope due to length restrictions and half of the car is pre designed, so no complaints, after you get a decent amount of duty cut due to same.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interiors are fairly good, the beige and black combination looks good, better than the swift hatchback, nice plastic quality, also have decent features for this price tag, comfortable front seats, decent rear seat space, good thigh support on both the seats front & rear.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine performs fairly well as far as diesel is concerned, there is a fair amount of torque at low RPMs, good fuel economy as far as disel motor, gear shifts are really smooth.

Ride Quality & Handling As far as ride quality is concerned it's good, braking not so impressive, rattles while braking at high speeds and while cornering. a bit of stablity concern, overall good ride & handling.

Final Words Nice package, overall value for money, moreover bcoz of brand image.

Areas of improvement May have done some good job on exteriors, never the less, the size restructions may be the reason of small boot.

Value for money, good interiors, decent space.Less boot space, average exterior looks.

Exterior Well exteriors are not to catchy but when you'll start driving..you'll forget about the exteriors..u'll start enjoying the driving...coz handling of new dzire is great.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Features are ok not that good..specially the sterio i was expecting was not up to the mark...but if we talk to space and comfort..YES new swift dzire is spacious and comfortable..interior are just awesome!the beach colour and the wooden marks they hv given on the doors and on the upper side of the dash board is quite different and gives a better look..

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox When we come to drive..performance of the car depends totally on ur driving..how u drive? From my side performance is good..i drove 350 km m getting an average of 16.6kmpl..but hopefully it'll improve afetr my 1st service.. gearbox is very smooth..u don't need to put energy..overall awesome performance!!

Ride Quality & Handling Tallking abt the steering..very smooth and electric power steering..nd when car crosses the speed of 100km/hr..u'll feel like ur sitting in an aeroplane..in diesel there is a turbo charge..they  actually raise up ur speed after 2000rpm on the same gear..nd more accelaration needed..

Final Words A very good car for family and may be exteriors are not too attractive but when u drive the car..u won't even think about exteriors..!

Areas of improvement You'll find difficult to reverse ur car..maruti should provide sensors and better strio quality in their VXI models...and power windows should be there in all the models..even in  LXI..maruti can never give a strong competition to hyundai...coz in their basic model they have all those basic features..!

Interior,driving experience,good fuel economy3rd person at the back cannot sit properly

No Doubt, Maruti made its best efforts on New D,zire. Everything is better the old. Pick-up, Cd sound, Interiors have no comparisions. but the problem is of space, less spacious at rear seats, driver leg not comfortably reach on clutch i.e. dash board is too low. Waiting period is the main cause to switchover to other vehicles. company has to improve its efficiency to provide vehicles with less waitingPick-Up, Interior, Fuel Economy, Stylish look, Ultimate CD SoundLess Space, Without ABS, Without Bluetooth

Exterior

Awesome. New headlights and inbuilt rear spoiler provide sporty look.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

Good Interior. hope leg space is more than the old verson. music system is weak.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

DDiS engine. Best in its class. Less sound/vibrations. Milage is claimed by maruti more than 23kmpl which sounds good.

Ride Quality & Handling

Smooth

Final Words

I have booked the New Dzire VDI. But the waiting is about 10-12 weeks which  is disappointing.

Maruti can transfer the cost saving on account of Excise duty reduction from 22 to10% due to reduction in length.

Even all cons I have changed my booking from SKOD Fabia to New Dzire VDI.

Areas of improvement  

Delivery schedule is disappointing. Vehicle should be available on demand. Maruti should reduce the waiting from 12week to 1-2week which will help maruti to retain their customer who are booking the Dzire. Most of the time longer waiting duration resulted in the shifting of the customer to other brands.

 

Excellent interior/Exrerior, good ground clearance, better plastics, sporty looksMaruti not transferred the advantage of excise duty reduction to the customer. slightly expensive.

Exterior The sporty touch given to the exteriors similar to new Swift makes it adorable compared to the Old Dzire. The Ground clearance is really good, even with the road humps in Bangalore i could able to ride smoothly.

The body is pretty decent but can be better for the price, the boot lid is a real cost cutting and can be bent easily. My requirement was a car which has a boot but smaller than old dzire so once the new dzire is released immediatley i booked it. The three qurter look makes you feel that there is no boot at all.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The Interiors makes you feel very comfortable and gives an upper class feel, the interiors are far better from Swift, Old Dzire and even Ertiga for that matter.

It has a better leg room, integrated Music System which is 9 /10 compared any other music system available in Market.

The OVRMs control is very good feature to have,  The only concern with the interios is beige even for the car floor, which requires proper managing.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

The engine is peppy it hardly stops even in second gear even at the speeds < 10, and you hardly hear any sound as you hear from the normal diesel vehicles.

Fuel ecomnomy is excellent i can say comapred to any other car, i am getting around 19.5 in city, if anyone dont believe me i can prove it. 

Gear box is decent, but not very smooth, changing to reverse gear is not as smooth as remaining gears.

Ride Quality & Handling I am surprised at the ride quality & handling which a diesel engine is offering compared to the petrol version. Even before the first service i drove at speeds > 100 without any kind of discomfort / any jerkings.

Final Words I am happy to own the Swift Dzire VDI, it is best city and family car in Market. 

Areas of improvement Waiting Periods can be reduced to around 2 Months, ABS and Volume Controls on the steering can be provided for VDI also, can reduce the OTR in Bangalore Dzire VDI is 7.93 Lakhs now without any accessories.

Fuel Economy, After Sales Network, Upper Class Interiors, Better Engine Performance, Music SystemLong Waiting Periods,Not So Strong Body,No ABS(as an option also)No Vol Controls on Steering for VDI

Most valuable car....perfect drive.... Love intireor...love car space ..money value This is a family car. And all over the car is perfect. All member love this car. Dzhire best car .....

I bought Dzire VDI model in Aug 2014 and below are my comments as per my experience after 1600 KM

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Inrerior is really good, seats are comfortable (driven 610km in one day), music system is awaysum with double din player and overall featuers are good, boot space is enough I would say as this is a car and not a Taxi.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Engine performance is very good and I am getting the milage of 20 kmpl in city and 23.2 kmpl on highway, jumping to reverse gear is hard sometimes, on full tank i drive more than 800 km without refueling. Pickup is very good.

Final Words

 Proud to be the owner of excellent fuel efficient car, Good Service, Low maintenance... A REAL VALUE FOR MONEY CAR and Overally Good For Indian Roads

Areas of improvement  

 Need to improve the exterior and gear box, should provide better brake assist and ABS with EBD alloys in VDI, doesn't have auto exterior mirror folding, rear wipers.

 

Good Interior, style, fuel efficient, Music SystemNo height adjustments for driver seat and external shape is not so good

Exterior

 Nice looks people stare as its new car I have bought BRIGHT RED color after teflon coating it was just superb

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Very good interiors i loved the theatre dimming effect , dash board ,features are also good very nice vehicle for 4 to 5 family persons front seats very comfortable

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Engine is too good , no cabin noise at all Fuel economy is already giving 18.5 kmpl still only 100kms run, it will improve as kms run and servicing Gearbox little hard managing to hesitate for 2nd or 4th maybe its new will perform wel as servicing periods due 

Ride Quality & Handling

 Ride quality is also good small potholes not noticable suspension little hard but worth in this value

Sterring is great on roads very firm little body roll but ok

Final Words

 Good car in such a pricing I love it

Areas of improvement  

 

 Little design of rear and seating will make it a perfect car

Great interiors , good milegae on 100kms run but showing 18.5 alreadyLittle cramped rear seat , gear box little hard may be its new

Exterior Exterior wise it's a average car, front view is good, I have spend some amount on accesories to improve it's exterior look.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interior is the best thing in new dzire, black and beige color combination gives a feel of big sedans.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Fuel economy is awesome, I have updagraded to low profile tyres and alloys, with this in city it's giving me an average of 17-18 kms per ltr and on highways drives it's giving me 21-22 kms per ltr. this will be better as I just completed 2500kms and it's one month old car.

Ride Quality & Handling Handling also good, easy to drive. it run like a hatch. I never felt driving like a sedan, as I have other car also (new Verna, new city and XUV500).

Final Words It's a good car for who are looking for mileage and want to use as a two seater car (front only), as it has very less leg space at behind and poor AC during summers.

Areas of improvement A/C cooling, car carpet fitment, leg space.

Good Interior, Mileage, Powerful 1.3 engine, comfortable front seats, Ground clearence,AC not as good as hyundai cars, less cabin space on rear seats, carpet fitting,problematic back gear
