Maruti Swift Dzire review, test drive

    Maruti has trimmed the boot of the Dzire. So is it a proper saloon or just a ‘hatchback plus’? Read our comprehensive review.

    The biggest difference between saloon and hatch is the softer rear suspension setup in the Dzire. What this means is that the ride, especially at the rear, is more pliant and the suspension, like the new Swift’s, is quite refined for a car of this class and price. The rear does tend to bob when the car is fully loaded though.

    Most owners won’t complain about the way it handles either – the steering is accurate enough for highway speeds and light enough for town work. Sure, the Swift feels sharper than the softened-down Dzire through corners, but you really have to push it hard to feel the difference.
