Maruti Swift Dzire compact sedan launched today in New Delhi in all seven variants including the 1.2 L petrol in four variants and a 1.3 L Swift Dzire diesel in three variants with the Maruti Swift Dzire price starting at Rs 4.79 lakh for the base petrol variant. The company MD and CEO pulled off the covers from the dazzling car and announced that these prices are introductory and will be raised later. He also mentioned that the car will get a new name in future and that the outgoing Swift Dzire sedan will be continued only as a taxi-segment car. New Maruti Swift Dzire carries forward the superior air around it to the next level with its compact form shortened by 165 mm from the previous version. The well proportioned notchback body style offers a good blend of smartly designed interiors and striking exteriors. The club shaped headlamps on new Swift Dzire are distinct from the rest even from the Maruti Swift hatchback, which was expected to be based on the Maruti Swift design cues, but is more or less retained as before with tweaked new looks to endow the car with a softer touch at the same time exuding the inner strength of the car. The fog lamps sitting on either side of the prominent grille are well in tandem with the tweaked new headlamps while the new alloy wheels also look quite apt with the rest of the new lustrous exteriors. The turn indicators integrated side rear view mirrors are also new in the 2012 Swift Dzire version while the makeover is carried to the now shortened rear end to offer a lesser boot 316 litre.

The width of the car is also increased by 5mm to 1695 mm from the outgoing model to offer wider berth for plusher accommodation for the passengers aboard. The new Maruti Swift Dzire is also taller by 25 mm at 1555 mm for easy entry of the passengers and more headroom within the car leaving no scope for the passengers to complain on comfort levels. The compact form of the sedan helps in squeezing the turn radius down to 4.8 m which is of an ample help on extremely curvy roads even on the hair pin bends making the sedan apt for
mountain ranges made easier with the impressive ground clearance of 170 mm. To avoid the unanticipated accidents and to offer more stability to the car, the compact sedan is offered with a rally based suspension system to impress the consumers of the spirited drive the car is capable of travelling smoothly down the tipsy curvy roads seamlessly challenging the hurdles like the speed bumps without spoiling the overall balance of the car.
The Swift Dzire CS cream-colored interiors screams of nothing but comfort inviting the passengers to come onboard with high fabric seat covers and experience the premium feel of the sacred aesthetic interiors in the car. The black combination only on the door insides and spreading all the way up to the multi-layered dashboard with water-fall console equipped with cup holders over the glove box with the sole idea to improve passenger comfort, and the tilt power steering with chrome inserts is in complete contrast with the rest of the car interiors is just to keep the consumers hooked on their favourite car giving every reason for the owner to swell with pride.
