    The Dzire comes with more features and a more efficient engine, but the Amaze offers more boot space and a more powerful 4-cylinder engine

    The 2024 Maruti Dzire is now on sale featuring new design, added features and a new Z series 3-cylinder petrol engine. The Dzire 2024 can be regarded as a direct rival to the Honda Amaze, which is also a well equipped offering in the sub-4m sedan segment. Let's see how the new-generation Dzire compares to the current-spec Honda Amaze in terms of specifications and features, at least on paper.

    Note: A new-generation Honda Amaze is right around the corner, and its teaser sketches have already been released ahead of its price announcement on December 4.

    New Maruti Dzire review

    • The new-generation Dzire is powered by a new Z series 3-cylinder petrol engine borrowed from the Swift. The Amaze, on the other hand, has a 4 cylinder petrol engine, however the engine size is same for both the sedans.

    • Honda’s 1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine makes 8 PS more power than Maruti’s Z series petrol engine. 

    • In automatic, the Dzire gets the option of a 5-speed AMT, meanwhile the Amaze comes with a CVT automatic.

    • Unlike the Amaze, the Dzire also comes with a CNG powertrain with a reduced output of 70 PS, mated to a 5-speed manual transmission only.

    New Maruti Dzire dashboard

    • While both Dzire 2024 and Amaze offer a premium looking dual-tone black and beige cabin, the Dzire leads in terms of features.

    • Over the Amaze, the Dzire comes with features such as rear AC vents, wireless phone charger, a bigger 9-inch touchscreen, and a 6-speaker Arkamys tuned sound system. The Dzire is also the first subcompact sedan in India to come with a single-pane sunroof and a 360-degree camera.

    • The Amaze, on other hand, comes with all basic amenities like a 7-inch touchscreen, auto AC, cruise control, and push-button start/stop.

    • The 2024 Dzire also offers a better safety package as it includes 6 airbags (as standard), electronic stability control, and a tyre pressure monitoring system.

    • The Amaze only comes with dual front airbags and a rear parking camera.

    Price Range

    2024 Maruti Dzire

    Honda Amaze

    Rs 6.79 lakh to Rs 10.14 lakh (introductory)

    Rs 7.20 lakh to Rs 9.96 lakh

    The new Dzire undercuts the entry-level variant of the Amaze Rs 41,000, however the Dzire in the top-spec is pricier than the Honda sedan.

    Final Takeaway

    New Maruti Dzire

    From the above comparison, the Maruti Dzire emerges as the clear winner, offering more features, more efficient powertrain options, and an overall better safety package. The Dzire was also recently crash-tested by Global NCAP, where it received a 5-star safety rating. In contrast, the Amaze was crash-tested in April 2024 and only managed to score a 2-star safety rating.

    While both the Dzire and Amaze offer a comfortable ride, the suspension setup on the Dzire is slightly stiffer, though it doesn't affect the ride quality. We recommend test-driving both the new Dzire and Amaze before making your final purchase decision. The Amaze is set to receive a generational update in December 2024, with which it will get a fresh design and new features. So, if you're specifically looking for a Honda sedan, we suggest waiting for its launch.
