Smart Summary for Car Selection
Why Choose Maruti Suzuki Dzire?Why choose
- Holds a 5-star rating from Global NCAP, with six airbags, three-point belts for all, a surround-view camera, stability control and hill hold
- A 390-litre boot that the hatchback Swift cannot approach
- Claimed economy of nearly 25kmpl on the manual and over 25 on the automated manual, with the CNG rated above 33km/kg
- Owners report real-world figures around 17kmpl on the manual in mixed driving
- An electric sunroof, cruise control, rear air-con vents and wireless charging are available
- Maruti's service reach and low running costs
Why not choose
- The three-cylinder engine is short on outright power and sounds strained near the top of its range
- Owners say it cannot be pushed hard beyond about 110kmph the way the older four-cylinder could
- Choosing CNG consumes most of the boot, leaving room for only a case or two
- The automated manual is unhurried, taking over 15 seconds to reach 100kmph in testing
- Factory tyres draw criticism from owners
Why Choose Maruti Suzuki Swift?Why choose
- Lighter and more agile, which makes it easier and more enjoyable in congested traffic
- Class-leading claimed economy, and owners report 18 to 20kmpl in real city driving
- Six airbags, stability control and anti-lock brakes standard even at the entry level
- Cheaper than the Dzire and with famously strong resale
- The compact footprint makes parking straightforward
Why not choose
- The three-cylinder engine vibrates at idle and long-time owners notice it has lost the punch the older four-cylinder had
- The automated manual is sluggish and less polished than the Baleno's
- No published crash-test rating for the current car
- Cabin plastics are inconsistent in quality, and CNG versions skip several comfort features
- The entry version goes without power mirrors, a touchscreen and a rear wiper
- A far smaller boot than the Dzire
Our Recommendation For Most BuyersMaruti Dzire
The Dzire is the better buy whenever luggage or family duty enters the picture, and its boot is the whole argument. The petrol manual is the efficient default, while the automated manual suits city traffic provided you accept it is leisurely rather than quick.
The CNG is where high-mileage and commercial owners should look, though be clear that it consumes most of the boot, which removes the main reason to choose this over a Swift. Most private buyers land in the middle of the range, where the touchscreen, alloys and cruise control arrive without the top-end price.
Maruti Swift
The Swift makes sense when your driving is mostly urban and mostly solo or with one passenger. It is the cheaper, lighter and more entertaining of the two, and the fuel bills are marginally better. Take the manual if you enjoy driving, since the automated manual is the weaker part of this car and owners find it unhurried.
CNG suits heavy monthly running. Step up from the entry version, which omits enough basics to feel spartan. If you regularly carry luggage or rear passengers, the Dzire is the more sensible purchase for very little extra.

Things We Don't Like in Maruti Suzuki Swift
