Maruti offers the 2024 Dzire in four broad variants: LXi, VXi, ZXi, and ZXi Plus

The Maruti Dzire is one of the most popular subcompact sedans in India, which recently got a generational update. The 2024 Dzire is not only new inside and out, but also gets a host of new features, and most importantly, an improved safety kit. The Dzire also became the first Maruti offering to receive full 5-star safety rating in Global NCAP crash tests. Let’s see which variant of the 2024 Dzire offers the best value for money.

The new Dzire comes in four broad variants: LXi, VXi, ZXi, and ZXi Plus.

Our Analysis

LXi: You should only consider the base variant of the Dzire if you are on a tight budget and still looking for the practicality and comfort of a sedan.
VXi: Gets all the necessary features like a touchscreen, rear AC vents, and an audio system.
ZXi: Offers the best value for money with good-to-have features like auto-LED headlights, auto AC, and even a rear parking camera.
ZXi Plus: Consider this if you want premium amenities like a bigger screen, a single-pane sunroof, and a 360-degree camera.

2024 Maruti Dzire ZXi Dashboard

As seen above, the one-below-top ZXi variant of the 2024 Maruti Dzire packs all good-to-have features like connected car tech, 7-inch touchscreen, 6-speaker sound system, wireless phone charger, and push-button start/stop. Exterior features include auto-LED headlights, LED tail lights, and 15-inch alloy wheels. Maruti has equipped the Dzire ZXi with safety features such as 6 airbags, electronic stability control (ESC), and even a rear parking camera. The only premium features it misses out on are a bigger 9-inch touchscreen, cruise control, a single-pane sunroof and a 360-degree camera.

Verdict

2024 Maruti Dzire ZXi Rear

By saving Rs 80,000, you can choose the mid-spec ZXi variant over the top-spec ZXi Plus trim. This mid-spec version of the Dzire includes all the essential features, such as a touchscreen, auto AC, and a wireless phone charger. However, note that you'll miss out on features like a bigger touchscreen, cruise control, a sunroof, and a 360-degree camera. If you're okay with these omissions, the Dzire ZXi is the best variant of the sedan to buy.
