Exactly! It looks similar to what the next gen Amaze aspires to be.
With the reliability and brand recognition of Maruti, this car will surely top the overall monthly sales chart.

I am sure MS will not listen or even give a hoot about this, but just a thought. Why not offer the existing 4cyl 1.2 K series engine with the old Baleno's CVT? That will create a good differentiation and will give Maruti good room for increasing price. Maybe restrict the 4cyl to the topmost variants. That will take it straight to the Honda Amaze.

Get the exterior design vibes of Ciaz.

The king of sedans (sub 4m) is here to stay and to continue ruling this segment.

Launching very soon, during the on going festive season.

Usually cars look bad in leaked pictures. Not this, because this looks absolutely fantastic atleast from the front.

I appreciate Maruti for trying to upgrade Dzire to have a more premium sentiment attached towards it.
I just hope that the interior is atleast somewhat different from Baleno/Brezza/Grand Vitara. That central console has gotten real old real fast.

Having said all that, one thing people haven't appreciated Maruti enough for, is the headlights. Baleno/Dzire/Brezza have fantastic headlights (lower variants with halogen headlights excluded). XL6 and Ertiga (just need a bulb upgrade on the projectors) have good headlights as well. In this age of below par LED headlamps, Maruti and Mahindra have consistently provided top notch headlights.

Exactly my thoughts. It looks more Amaze'ish than Dzire'ish.

With the current gen Dzire selling about 15000+ units in a month, Maruti has done the right thing to keep this product refreshed.

Would love to see this in person and compare my Amaze with this one.

Looks like an Amaze. Is Honda entering a badge engineering partnership with Maruti for the next gen Amaze?

I believe you want to get a sketch of your cars made, well there’s this guy on instagram who made vector arts for my car, and he did a great job, you may want to contact him. I’m sharing the link to the thread here-

And regarding the upcoming Dzire- the car looks really promising and I’m happy that it has got it’s identity of its own now, doesn’t look anything like Swift. Hope Maruti works on new Ciaz now, it’s too old in the tooth.

Another winner 🏆 for MSIL. That Hycross like front with slim LED headlights, 360° camera, sunroof, shark fin antenna and good alloys. Looks like MSIL do not want to leave any stone unturned. This is promising for folks who want a sedan under 10 lakhs ex-showroom price.

With the upcoming Amaze facelift which might be out in the next 2-3 months, good two choices to pickup from.

re: 2024 Maruti Suzuki Dzire spied on test. EDIT: Launched at Rs. 6.79 lakhs

Maruti has actually burnt their fingers when they launched the current gen 3-cylinder Swift. Monthly sales has actually decreased. Is the same fate awaiting DZire?

They should understand that not all are behind FE figures, but want some performance figures - atleast on papers. A 4-cylinder engine, Turbo and / or Direct Injection, around 120 BHP on tap, 160NM Torque, 6-speed manual and automatic, all 4 disc brakes and a good safety rating... these should satisfy many such "a bit of performance please" geeks. A car with basic performance issues sorted out. They don't care too much about HUD, ADAS, sun roof, 360 degree camera, road presence etc.

Thankfully, they have not gone with the recent "stupid" trend of connected head and tail lamps!

re: 2024 Maruti Suzuki Dzire spied on test. EDIT: Launched at Rs. 6.79 lakhs

With each new generation of the Dzire, Maruti has been cleverly creating a separate unique identity for the Dzire. Very important, cause then customers stop perceiving the Dzire as just a “ swift with a boot”.

And this new generation seems to take the Dzire further away from the Swift! The lights are completely different, im sure its also going to get some additional tech and features over the swift. But Maruti being Maruti, they may keep both interiors the same, hopefully some colours and textures are different.

Lastly, the front Grill seems “Toyota-Ready”! I mean, Toyota does not even have to change the grill this time, just the badge!

Wow! After a long time, I am impressed by Maruti's design. Dzire has never been the best looking sedan but seems like it now has the potential to be.

Honestly, this feels more like the next gen Amaze than next gen Dzire.

First Fronx and now this. Maruti has upped its design game. I totally didn't see this coming. Good for them to try and go it a completely different direction to the usual Swift with a boot concept. It looks gorgeous imo. Like a mini Basalt.

re: 2024 Maruti Suzuki Dzire spied on test. EDIT: Launched at Rs. 6.79 lakhs

At this point, all we can do is wish, but imagine if Maruti launches this with the BoosterJet 1.0. This car will eat up everything in sight. Even the manual would suffice and make sense. They have already differentiated this car from the Swift so that they could charge customers a premium, so why not go one step further?

If they want to position this as a premium offering above the Swift and the Baleno, which is clearly the case from the looks of it, adding the BoosterJet engine would be a sensible decision (it will also lead to economies of scale as currently it's only offered with the Fronx). Regardless of the engine, people will pay anything to buy the Dzire. Heck, it's the only car that has kept the sedan segment alive single-handedly (in terms of sales). Why not make it more competitive?

I hate breaking it to you, but they're "MARUTI". Am sure this will sell a lot as usual, but please don't expect even the CVT on this.

I think:
grille shape = previous-gen Swift Sport
grille design = new DNGA Yaris
windows = Kizashi
C-pillar = S60/Polestar 2

Doesn't look very similar to the Amaze to me except the shape of the windscreen pillar and the launch colour.
