What owners and experts like about the Maruti Suzuki Dzire
Dashboard layout
Strongly positivebased on 8 reviews
“It's a dual tone layout which breaks the floor doesn't look monolithic and that's nice, you have some fake wood sandwich between the two as well so definitely gives it that sedan look a bit of opulence.”
Ride comfort
Strongly positivebased on 6 reviews
“Ride quality is also very good the suspension is nice and soft so bad patches broken roads maruti knows exactly how they are in our country... despite the added weight and the added bit at the rear it still feels nice and soft.”
Seat comfort
Strongly positivebased on 5 reviews
“I really like this front seat it is much more accommodating than the amazes. You get a longer seat base so under thigh support is much better, the seats in themselves are broader so larger passengers will be comfortable here too.”
Highway stability
Generally positivebased on 5 reviews
“The maruti also has the flatter ride of the two at highway speeds and even though some sharp movements do come through it doesn't feel as floaty as the amaz.”
Where the Maruti Suzuki Dzire falls short
Not every point below is a serious flaw. Some are mixed opinions where reviewers disagreed, and the label says which.
Fit & finish
Strongly negativebased on 5 reviews
“हां आई थी एक रेडलिंग? ये देखो पीछे है। ये मैंने डाल रखा है यहां पे। न्यूज़पेपर। (Yes, one rattle appeared — see, it's at the back. I've put a newspaper there [to stop it].)”
Rear seat space
Mixed reviewsbased on 7 reviews
“Knee room is just about enough and the back seat is good enough for two passengers, there are three-point seat belts for three passengers but only headrest for two so three in the back will be a bit of a squeeze.”
Handling
Mixed reviewsbased on 9 reviews
“There is quite a lot of slack at the Straight Ahead position and if you're cornering it really really hard you will find that there isn't quite enough feedback from the front wheel.”
Crash safety
Mixed reviewsbased on 15 reviews
“The child dummy head did make contact with the interior of the car and the lack of three-point seat belts in all seating positions explained the low child occupant rating.”
