Maruti Suzuki Swift DZire [2011-2015] User Reviews

Exterior Well Interrior and well Designed from the Front the car is exaclty like Swift but it has One Inc more head room which is really benefical during abrupt speed brakes and bumpy roads.

From the Rear the car is look really nice and the Boot is 316 lts which is good enough for accomodating 2 full size suite case for travelling or dropping you to the Airport and one can keep lot of luggage like bags on the top of Suitcase.

Have you every thought is full size Sedan our boot is most of the time is 70-80 % full 20-30%is vacant. Analysist are comapring it with Etios and Idigo but it is far better than both in terms of looks and performance.

So If you have Small family of 4-5 please go for it. It is Just 145mm (6inch) lengtly than existing Swift.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Infact personaly I don't like Double tone Interiors but it is subject to personal choice. Swift seems to have better Interiors. Quality is the Same.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox K Series Engine Best Fuel Economy and Gearbox is smooth. Infact I tried Demo car but Your new car will be having lot smooth Gear box.

Ride Quality & Handling Good.

Final Words Go For IT it  is Car of Family.

Areas of improvement Interior Single tone or Double tone Choice of Car Fabric ,Cigrrate Lighter(In Indian Family very feaw people Smoke can be used for mobile charging. More Choice of colors like Maroon.

The way Sedan is Design in 4mts is exceptional and Fuel EconomyNeither Hatch Nor Sedan Please compromise!

I booked new Dzire VDI in Bharath motors, Mangalore in March and they promissed me to deliver in April end, but they did not keep their promise and asked me to wait till May 20th and now they are saying I have pay the new revised price, 12K extra. This is cheating the customer. Why should I pay extra? I am going to cancel the booking.

Areas of improvement Maruthi and Dealers should not mis use the demand of the car and simply raise the price and reduce the waiting period to 2 weeks max.

Interior, Good StyleLess spacious, Very expensive, Bad support

Exterior Side view not ok.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) AC not very effective.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Not upto mark, very sluggard at low rpm and hard to drive on busy hill track. clutch feels hard. performance of the engine drops with load and a punch feel dies.

Ride Quality & Handling handling easy due to good power steering. Also, as I mentioned earlier in this thread, though I liked Swift when it was introduced, as soon as I saw Dzire, I started disliking both - same face, different backsides! How can we accept a person whose identity is in his back? Of course, many other manufacturers have done the same mistake (eg: Tata). Ford was very sensible and gave distinct looks for Fiesta and Figo. We can easily identify the two from a distance due to the difference in the curves of the bonnets.

Final Words Not value for money. Must explore better options. Car is over priced vis a vis features and performance.

Areas of improvement AC, Engine performance at low rpm, Very less boot spaceLast time maruti killed a star is when they knocked off the old jellybean zen and brought in the estillo. The new car is a step mom from day one, even if she went for art of living in a small makeover and had a desperate tech savvy campain, it remained as popular as well. a step mom.

good steeringpoor performance at low speed and on hill roads, sluggard t low rpm, turbo not good

Exterior Not changed much as compared to old dzire,looks like facelifted dzire.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interior looks great but leg space for rear seat passengers is very less,simple feature like blue tooth is not provided is really shocking,audio control on steering should come with more features like folder chane etc, auto foldable side mirror not there.noisy power windows,rattling noise in doors within 10000 kms, front head rests are very uncomfortable,interior plastic quality is not up to the mark

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine performance superb when compared to other diesel engines, great driving pleasure.transmission noise (humming) is bit higher, great fuel economy (20 kmpl),but maintenance is expensive for new dzire,(Rs 1.00 /k.m aprx).

Ride Quality & Handling Both are great.

Final Words Nice car

Areas of improvement Minimise tranmission noise, must provide blue tooth at least for zdi/vdi,power window is noisy within 10000 k.m. maintenance cost has become more expensive than earlier, it should minimised,maruti is known for low maintenance cost.

Good fuel economy,better power,good interiorLess legspace for rear seat, basic feature like blue tooth is not provided.

Exterior A decent looking vehicle which gives impression of a much bigger vehicle from outside.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) All required features available for good & comfortable travel.Stereo is good and the  steering mounted audio control are a good additional feature.Seats are quite comfortable for long drive.Good airconditioner which cools the interior quickly. 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The vehicle has given excellant performance without any problem so far. I have driven the vehicle for about 11 hours continously on rough terrain without any problem. The fuel economy has been about 22 in city and more than 25 on highway. When it was driven at speed of  around 70  the fuel economy has gone much higher on the highway.

Ride Quality & Handling Very comfortable and good.A very light steering enables to drive with strain free driving.

Final Words A value for money vehicle. It has not required any replacement or expenses apart from regular service only. I consider it a very reliable vehicle.

Areas of improvement Glass quality needs improvement.

My car has done more than 70000 kms in less 3 years. I like every thing about it .Quality of window glass

They almost increased one lakh silently when i enquired the same, people bought for 5,80,000 on road in the month of Aug 2014 and to my shock when i checked, currently they are selling for over Rs.6.4 Lakhs on road, Initially, i was very confused, which one to buy, amaze or swift dzire, Now i reached a conclusion to go for amaze, Thanks for the unbiased review, whatever in my mind is reflected in your review, Even after buying from CSD doesn't made me any profits, Maruti started treating indian customers differently, I feel cheated, The Interiors are congested, and they relay on other engine makers, but honda has got their own engine and the vehicle looks are eye candy and safety standards and comfort is good. The sales representatives are clueless how to convince the customer, here in india customer is King. If you want to push the old.

already written by manydon't want to say it again

Truly value for money.. comfortable,fuel-efficient, almost low maintenance, safe with lots of space...I feel it second home after driving almost 60000 km... After five years except for oil, filter, change nothing changed...now it's time to change tyres and battery only..of course, seat covers .

Exterior

 Overally Good.But it doesn't have auto exterior mirror folding, rear wipers

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 No Bluetooth Connectivity, No rear AC vents, Less Leg Room Space, Almost Comfortable

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

Overally Good For Indian Roads

Ride Quality & Handling

 Good

Final Words

 A Good Car Satisfying Peoples Needs

Areas of improvement  

 It Should Have A Bluetooth Call Phone Connectivity, Rear Wiper, Reverse Parking Sensors and Cameras, Auto Mirror Fold, Cruise Control, tyre pressure monitor, Engine Chech Warning, Vehicle Stability Control System, Rear AC Vents, Voice Control Technology, Electronic Stability Program with Pull Drift Technology, Foot Rest, etc. These are all we need in this automatic age. But it is Okay if it isnt available also. Go for it Guys. The Best Part is Having a Compact Sedan(CS) , Small in Size as well as a Sedan for better Boot Space reducing the Tax by12% and for the petrol engine less than 1200cc which also cuts off tax

 

Good Fuel Economy & CS versionNo Bluetooth Call Connectivity & No Automatic Exterior Mirror Folding

Exterior

 Looks good stright on and from the back. a litlle obscure from the side view

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 everything good. just 2 negatives---no defogger in Vxi model  and space for 600 ml bottles only in the door pockets.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 engine o.k. Could have been more silent though. fuel economy around 12.5 to 13  with ac ( as shown by the indicators). Gear box not butter smooth but decent. Steering is light. Good for City. haven't been tto much on the highway part.

Ride Quality & Handling

 Fine ride quality, good handling. Rolls a bit at sharp corners at the back seat. Handles potholes decently. Suspension is good. Ac cools effectively.

Final Words

 For 50000/- more you get a bigger looking car than the swift. End of debate.

Areas of improvement  

 Floor carpet should have been of dark colour. The thickness of glass in the doors is a desperate cost cutting example. bumpers could have been more solid. they are wafer thin( It is almost the same though in other brands). maruti should have been generous enough to provide De-fogger in Vxi Model

one major area for improvement is that place for Airbags at dashboard area in ZXI and Zdi models could have been designed for  storing of knick-knacks in the Vxi/Vdi  and Lxi/Ldi models.
