Hybrid Engine Option for Maximised Fuel Efficiency
Maruti Suzuki is poised to bring a significant shift to its successful Swift and Dzire range by introducing the all-new Z12 engine in the upcoming fourth-generation Swift. This move marks a departure from the renowned K-Series engine, emphasizing a commitment to improved fuel efficiency with a target of up to 35 kmpl, thanks to integrated hybrid technology. The Z12 engine boasts a unique cylinder design, featuring each cylinder with a 400cc capacity, strategically enhancing torque for smoother urban driving. B
ridgestone Ecopia tires on the showcased car further underscore the focus on achieving high fuel efficiency. These advancements planned for the Swift are also expected to be incorporated into the Dzire. But the biggest update will likely come in the form of a hybrid option. The strong-hybrid option, which will likely make it even to Baleno and Fronx, will offer a stellar fuel efficiency. In fact, the claimed mileage could exceed 35 km/l! This will give the new Maruti twins a clear advantage over all the rivals.

2024 Maruti Dzire – Price and Launch Date
Anticipated to coincide with the new Swift launch, the 2024 Dzire is expected to follow the traditional pattern where Dzire precedes Swift in facelift models. The debut in the market is likely to occur around mid-2024. Currently priced between Rs 6.51 lakh and Rs 9.39 lakh (ex-showroom), the new version may see a slight increase in the lower models. We expect the prices to start from Rs 7 lakh (ex-showroom). The hybrid engine option, though, could propel the prices of the top version to well over Rs 10.5 Lakh (ex-showroom).

These alterations encompass a modified headlamp design, a fresh bumper, updated alloy wheels, a revamped rear bumper, and an altered taillamp unit. While maintaining the overall silhouette, the Dzire is expected to present several external refinements.

Moving to the interior, both the next-gen Swift and Dzire will offer an enhanced layout, drawing inspiration from the Baleno. The Dzire may opt for a different color scheme, deviating from the Swift’s sporty all-black interior. Anticipated equipment levels include a 9-inch touchscreen infotainment system and a digital driver display. Aligning with market preferences, features like an electric sunroof, ventilated front seats, a 360-degree camera, and wireless charging could be offered in both the India-spec Swift and the upcoming Dzire. However, official confirmation of these features is still pending.
