Guys, Dzire Diesel is promised to be delivered before a month, any color, any variant. Even im planning for the White Dzire Vdi.
But I wont wait for a month...

As of now they are only selling Diesel no Petrols. Hence so much waiting period on Petrol Dzire. But what I feel is,

1) the petrol 87 bhp engine, wouldnt it be a bit sluggish?
2) The Dzire is 35-50 kgs heavier than Swift.
3) 87 bhp at the crank so its close to 75 bhp to the wheels.

Diesels do feel a bit sluggish when the AC is on but torque saves it. If the petrol is indeed sluggish then Maruti didnt wanna ruin the Dzire's image upfront hence launched Diesels first. Thats why all the TD cars are diesels, am I right?
