Maruti Suzuki has launched the much-anticipated 2024 Dzire, featuring a completely refreshed design, new tech features, and an updated engine. Priced from Rs 6.79 lakh, ex-showroom, the latest model brings a fresh look, moving away from its Swift-inspired design to create a distinct and refined identity of its own. The Dzire has been the fourth-highest selling model of all time in India and here's a look at what it offers in its latest avatar.
New Maruti Suzuki Dzire: New look
The 2024 Dzire sports a bold new hexagonal grille with six slats, flanked by sleek projector LED headlights that integrate DRLs and turn indicators. The fog lights are now sleeker and get a refreshed design for the cluster around it. Besides that, new diamond-cut alloy wheels and Y-shaped LED elements on the tail lamps enhance its modern look. A sharp boot and a shark-fin antenna bring additional sophistication to its rear profile.

In a series of firsts for the Dzire, Maruti has added a factory-fitted sunroof, cruise control, rear AC vents, a rear center armrest, and a 360-degree camera in higher trims.
New Maruti Suzuki Dzire: 5-star safety ratings
