Swift Dzire 2014-2017 LXI Option Review
In a bid to spur up the sales of Swift Dzire, Maruti Suzuki India Limited has silently introduced its facelifted version in the country's car bazaar. The manufacturer has not just made changes to its cosmetics and features, but also made modifications to its engine specifications, which makes it the most fuel efficient in its class. Now, there are five petrol and three diesel trims available in this series among which, the Maruti Swift Dzire LXI Optio n is the mid range petrol variant. It is powered by a re-tuned 1.2-litre engine that can produce a peak mileage of 20.85 Kmpl. This comes as a result of reduction in its power production and improvement in its torque output. In terms of cosmetic updates, this vehicle has a modified front facade featuring a new radiator grille that has a pronounced air intake section. At the same time, both its front and rear bumpers have been redesigned wherein, the front one gets modified fog lamp consoles. The insides of this vehicle remains entirely the same like its predecessor, but the improvement in quality of its fabric enhances its plushness. On the other hand, this latest trim gets a few essential protective aspects like security alarm system and speed sensitive automatic door locks. This compact sedan will now lock horns with the likes of Hyundai Xcent, Honda Amaze and Tata Zest in the country's automobile market.
Exteriors:
The external appearance of this current generation vehicle looks quite decent owing to its refined cosmetics. However, its side and rear facets received not much of updates apart from the wheel covers and rear bumper. Its tailgate looks massive and it is decorated with a chrome plated strip along with a company's badge. The taillight cluster has an edgy design and is powered by brake lights along with turn indicators. Coming to its side facet, this vehicle gets black colored ORVMs and door handles, wherein its A and B pillars are garnished in body color. Major update has been given to its front facade with a redesigned radiator grille with bigger air intake section. Its has a perforated mesh, which is further decorated with a black colored bar affixed on it. The front bumper is also modified with expressive new design, wherein its fog lamp console gets a new shape. The overall new look of this vehicle is complimented by the chrome plated company's insignia, which is positioned on the grille. On the other hand, this vehicle is now available with seven exterior paint options among which, Magma Grey, Alp Blue, Sangria Red and Cave Black are newly introduced color shades.
Interiors:
Like mentioned above, the manufacturer has made no changes to the interiors, apart from improving the quality of its fabric upholstery. Its entire cabin is done up with an eye-soothing dual tone color scheme, which is further complimented by wood accents given on its dashboard. Its center fascia has a flawless design and is housed with features like an AC unit along with a provision to incorporate a music system. Just beside this, there is a small instrument cluster that has two attractive analogue meters with conventional dials. It has functions including a speedometer, driver's seatbelt warning lamp, light-on buzzer and door closure warning lamp. Furthermore, it also houses a multi-functional digital display that provides information related to the time, outside temperature, odometer and fuel consumption. There is a lot of space available inside that can house a minimum of five passengers comfortably. This compact sedan also has a boot volume of 310-litres, which can be extended further by folding the rear bench seat.
Engine and Performance:
This variant is fitted with a modified 1.2-litre K-Series VVT petrol engine, whose power output has been reduced. However, it comprises of same four cylinders and 16-valves based on DOHC valve configuration, which displaces 1197cc. This naturally aspirated motor can now pump out a power of 83.14bhp at 6000rpm along with a hammering torque of 115Nm at 4000rpm. The automaker has paired this motor to a five speed manual transmission gearbox, which enables it to break the 100 Kmph mark from a standstill in 12 to 13 seconds. Its power plant is integrated with a MPFI fuel supply system, which is helpful for delivering segment's best mileage figures of 20.85Kmpl.
Braking and Handling:
In terms of braking, this compact sedan is blessed with a highly efficient braking mechanism that works perfectly in all weather conditions. It gets ventilated discs on its front wheels and drum brakes at its rear, which can be fitted with ABS and EBD. This trim is also integrated with an electric power assisted steering system, which is based on a rack and pinion mechanism. It provides excellent response to the driver by supporting a minimum turning radius of just 4.8 meters. This vehicle sits on a sturdy chassis, whose front and rear axles are fitted with McPherson strut and torsion beam suspension respectively. This mechanism is capable enough to deal with the shocks caused on roads.
Comfort Features:

- Nice car with compromised safety
It's our 1st family car and I have driven it extensively through Western Ghats, Hyderabad - Pune Highways, Hyd - Mysuru Highways, through ghat road of Ooty. Have enjoyed to the fullest. Drives during Nights are challenging but thrilling. I have clocked more than 10K KMs in 4 months and done with 1st major servicing with oil change. Exterior Exterior looks nice and masculine. The more you keep it clean, it will keep you happy. But I have some concerns. 1. Sheet metal used for body is too thin. When you lean against it, sheet goes inside and makes noise. I wonder how is it going to save us from accidents! 2. When you shut the boot lid, the thunn sound is not promising. Sound makes me feel like the lid is not closing properly. 3. Locks of bumpers are too delicate. I think, if you kick it lightly also get the locks break. Again poor quality. 4. When you drive with half open door glasses, it makes noise. Again loose fit and poor quality. After driving few kilometers you will be scared to close them, as if glasses will roll up out of the door. Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) It has all the major features in its segment. ABS works well. Infotainment cluster looks beautiful with all the features. Steering wheel control switches look mounted and durable. The car has 2 cabin lights, 1 at the front and 1 at middle. It has 2 12v outlets, 1 @ front and 1 for backseat. Driver seat height adjustment is very helpful for me. I love it. Interior has been designed nicely and looks comfy because of Dual tone. 6 speaker music system is sweet and powerful. But touch screen display should have been given. AC is very efficient Sound insulation is good And, it has Bluetooth speaker as well as music play option. But again it has its own set of problems. Even if I don't miss anything but has serious doubt about it's quality. E.g. 1. Creaking noise comes from all the door glasses, backside glass after driving few kilometer on rough roads and it remains forever till next servicing. 2. Interior plastic used on doors are thin. If push it with your knee while sitting, it gives a sense of cheapness. 3. Beige colored interior is prone to marks. Gets dirty easily. Regular cleaning is a must. 4. After few thousand kilometers, noises started coming from steering wheel (from beneath the Horn panel), from near the glove box, from doors and no idea from where else. It's kind of awkward feeling with these type of noises. 5. Thermal insulation manageable but not that nice. Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine performance is good and noiseless. You will hardly hear anything when driving in normal conditions. When you rev engine sound is audible but sweet. Sometimes I get confused like whether the engine is ON of OFF until I look at the RPM meter. Kitna Deti hey ? City - 16-17 approx. (17.8 in avg fuel meter reading) Highway - 18-19 approx. Engine looks reliable. Gone through steep Ooty ghat roads in 2nd gear all through with 4 persons in the car and luggage wasn't disappointed at all. It has a good set suspensions which rode us through worst quality, unpredictable and killer Hyderabad - Solapur NH safely. Gearbox is smooth like butter. But it has reverse gear problem and so does all the Swifts. Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is good. slips through city traffic like a snake. Soft steering, smooth gears, adequate power makes driving enjoyable. Good viewing angles, controlled braking is just enough in the city. On Highways ABS works well. It has already saved me twice from accidents. In high speeds I can feel ABS coming into action as my savior. Haven't tested Air Bags though... And hope that never comes. On Bangaluru - Hyderabad highway when @ 120 kmph, the car was pretty stable. But 130 Kmph onwards I felt like flying. It felt like tyre was just touching the road. Don't know whether due to more than enough tyre pressure or due to irregular supply of power from engine to the wheels because it's new. After 1st oil change clocked 150 kmph and the car was stuck to the road. No sign of unstableness. Final Words My love, my new BFF. It's lovely when you drive carefully and take care of it. I fear anybody will be crushed to death if met with an accident around 100 Kmph with this cheap quality materials. How will AIR bag save someone if the car is totally crushed . Cutting cost with cheap material. cutting weight with light material for better mileage is not justified when comparing safety. Areas of improvement Quality & durability of materials is a big question. MSI need to and must improve in this segment.Read More
- Value for Money
Hello all, I bought a Maruti Swift Dzire this year in January and though to share my experience on the car so that others can benefit out of it. To start with I would first compliment the company for having thought of perfectly to fulfill an Indian's desire. The car is a great performer on all fronts be it mileage, the comfort it gives while driving, the smooth gearshifts and an easy and smooth acceleration. I have taken the car two times on highway drives and believe you me it performed really great and the most noticeable feature was that even at high speeds of 130-140 kmph, the car did not produce any kind of wobbling sound that is the main issue when it comes to highway drives. I must admit here that space it offers in terms of the legroom, headroom and boot space is pretty sufficient and rather comfortable for any ideal Indian family. Also, as I am quite fond of driving, the car makes me enjoy the drive even in crowded city lanes. I mean, if any of you is looking forward to a family car in the price range of 6-8 Lacs, Swift Dzire would be a really nice option. I am a satisfied customer after investing my hard-earned money into the car. Comfort: Driving comfort is superb. Rear suspension is ok in slow speed, found a bit jerk above 120 kmph speed. Legroom at rear seats are found ok, even though front seats are found thick and firm (not trimmed like in Honda Amaze, which gives a cheap feel on sight). I had a test drive of Chevrolet Sail and Honda Amaze with my family sitting on rear seats. According to them, Dzire ride is most comfortable and steady among all competitors. Pickup: Pick up is quite good. Could achieve 0 to 100 kmph speed in less than 7 seconds. It may be better for other better drivers. Mileage: Till now I have driven this car only 500 km. Instrument panel shows the mileage 14.7 km/L with AC on. I think it should be only stable after driving at least 1000 km. Even though Maruti claims for 19 km/L, we become comfortable within 15 - 16 km/L. Best Features: Masculin look, best interior, best mileage, best service network. Needs to improve: If Maruti can reduce the noise and increase its boot. Overall Experience: Very good.Read More
