On the Indian market, the needs are not the same as here. This is why manufacturers develop specific versions. More than very well established via the Maruti brand, the Japanese Suzuki is number one in sales and today renews one of its bestsellers on the Sub-Continent market: its Dzire compact sedan, a model that has already sold more than 2.7 million units.
This new generation of the notchback sedan offers a new design and enhanced equipment. In India, the third largest automobile market in the world, it allows Suzuki to position itself as market leader, with more than 40% market share.
Dacia Bigster: these 2 other versions badged Renault and Nissan which in India will have something extra
A local star
Škoda uses the same recipe with its Slavia, a trunk version of the Fabia, but larger (4.54 m). Because the Suzuki Dzire – no link with the Renault DeZir concept – is none other than a modified Swift. To benefit from favorable legislation, its size remains less than 4 m. Under the hood, there is a 1.2 petrol engine, associated with a manual or automatic gearbox with, in both cases, 5 speeds. While the main market of the new Suzuki Dzire is India, it will subsequently be exported to India’s neighboring countries, the Middle East, Africa, Latin America and South East Asia. .
