The Maruti Suzuki Swift Dzire sedan has been unveiled in India, and comes with a choice of either a 1.3 litre SOHC petrol engine or a 1.3 litre Multijet DOHC common rail intercooled turbodiesel engine.
The petrol engine produces 87 bhp at 6,000rpm and 113Nm of torque at 4,500rpm, while the oil burner makes 75 horses and 190Nm of torque at 2,000rpm. Both petrol and diesel variants are available only with a 5-speed manual gearbox.
Dimension-wise the Swift Dzire sedan is longer than the Swift hatchback of course, but keeps the same wheelbase of 2390mm. The following table lists the differences between the two dimension-wise.
Swift | Swift Dzire | |
Length | 3695mm | 4160mm |
Height | 1510mm | 1530mm |
Width | 1690mm | 1690mm |
Wheelbase | 2390mm | 2390mm |
Boot space varies between 440 litres and 464 litres depending on trim level. The larger boot space value is available on the Lxi, Ldi, Vxi and Vdi trims, probably because of the slimmer tyre profile (165/80R14 versus 185/70R14) which means the spare tyre does not take as much space in the boot.
Safety features include ABS brakes, EBD, and dual front SRS airbags, which Maruti Suzuki claims are safety features that are not usually seen in this segment. Not all trim levels have them though. Spec level is relatively high, with some variants getting automatic climate control.
