New Maruti Suzuki Dzire Launch: Highlights
Maruti Suzuki today launched the third generation model of the Dzire subcompact sedan. The car debuted in India in April 2017, while official bookings began in the first week of May. The new model, developed with an investment of Rs. 1000 crore, has already received 33,000 bookings and commands a waiting period of 8 weeks.
Highlights
The new Maruti Suzuki Dzire was launched in India today at Rs. 5.45 lakh. The third generation model of the car was showcased in the country last month though Maruti Suzuki officially started accepted bookings for the subcompact sedan only in the first week of May. It may be interesting to note that the carmaker sold 13.81 lakh units (with a 50% segment share) of the previous two generations of the sedan. Maruti now expects the new generation Dzire to outsell its predecessor. The new Maruti Suzuki Dzire is built on a new platform a.k.a. Suzuki's B platform or 'Heartect'. This is a derivative of the same platform that also underpins the Baleno. It sports a design inspired by the next generation Swift but, unlike the first two generations, the sedan is not merely 'a Swift with a boot' anymore.
The new Maruti Dzire is still a subcompact sedan: it measures 3,995 mm in length. It continues to use the old model's powertrains: the 1.2-litre VVT petrol and the 1.3-litre DDiS diesel. However, it is now offered with the AGHS or Auto Gear Shift a.k.a. AMT with both engine options. The new Maruti Suzuki Dzire is available in a total of eight variants, spread across four trims each for petrol and diesel models. It must be noted the base variant, Lxi/ Ldi, receives just the five-speed manual, while the remaining trims are offered with the five-speed AMT as an option.
Here are the Highlights of Maruti Suzuki Dzire Launch.
