Speaking on the milestone, Mr. Hisashi Takeuchi, Managing Director & CEO, Maruti Suzuki India Limited said, “We are deeply grateful to our customers for their continued trust, which has been a key to achieving the milestone of 3 million production for the Maruti Suzuki Dzire. Their feedback and support inspire us to continuously improve and innovate, ensuring the Dzire exceeds their expectations. The latest Dzire, launched last month, exemplifies this commitment, setting a new benchmark with its modern design, advanced features, and exceptional fuel efficiency. Over the years, Dzire has significantly contributed to our sales, making us the sedan segment leader for 16 consecutive years*. I also extend my heartfelt gratitude to our dedicated team members and value chain partners for their hard work and commitment.”

Maruti Suzuki launched Dzire in 2008 followed by the second and third generations in 2012 and 2017, respectively. The 4th generation All-New Dzire was launched in November 2024 featuring progressive design, plush two-tone interiors and a host of segment-first features. Moreover, the Dzire has consistently adapted to consumer preferences, solidifying Maruti Suzuki’s dominance in the sedan market.

The 2024 Maruti Suzuki Dzire now comes equipped with a refined 1.2-litre Z Series petrol engine, paired with either a five-speed manual or AMT transmission, delivering 80 bhp and 112 Nm of torque for a balanced blend of performance and efficiency. Catering to eco-conscious buyers, a CNG variant is also available on select trims, offering 68 bhp and 102 Nm of torque with a focus on fuel economy. Notably, It is also the only Maruti car to have scored a five-star safety rating at Global NCAP.

The Maruti Suzuki Dzire price starts at Rs 6.79 lakh and goes up to Rs 10.14 lakh (ex-showroom).
