Regarding fuel efficiency 1. India's avg per capita income is still below 3 lakhs. 2. Air pollution goes down if Fuel efficiency increases 3. Imports go down if Fuel efficiency increases. 4. No one would sell a car if Fuel efficiency is terrible as depreciation hits them harder (and not because they don't care about Fuel efficiency). 5. I agree there is a small segment for whom FE doesn't matter. They choose sportier engine cars. But that segment is still small. India's overall car penetration is also low
Well written…. i dont want maruti to change their take on fuel efficiency because i dont see any competition giving the consumers this kind of fuel efficiency,reliability,low cost maintenance… while there are always german cars who give u the driving experience…. its different from two wheeler market because more than 3-4 companies try to compete in fuel efficiency.
Exactly shumi wants performance excitement and he speaks as everyone wants that 😂 this is india and for middle class fuel efficiency, maintenance cost and value for money is what matters.
I think maruti wanted the replacement for their Diesel desire, now with this efficiency it is filled. In blr all taxim segments are Diesel still ( I am happy we don't have boot eating CNG)

Will say just this, and leave the other many remarkable things out: The "start a country with an invincible army" analogy knocked my socks off. Damn! The elegance of it. 😘
The only vehicle we’ve sold off due to lack of fuel efficiency is the Skoda Fabia Petrol. It returned an efficiency of around 4-6kmpl in a Tier 2 city with little traffic. We sold it after driving it only 4000kms.
@ We did, but did not get any solution. I was a kid back then, so can’t really recall the whole thing, but as far as I remember, they told that the expected FE is 8kmpl, and that it could be due to our driving style. Skoda VW service in Tier 2 cities was an absolute nightmare back then. It still is to an extent. They don’t stock any spare parts, and if something goes wrong with your car, your car is gone for at least 20 days .
Our 2013 polo petrol was giving 8 to 11 in city with mild traffic. Didn't sell it off because our running was very low at the time and the car was great otherwise.
i feel the reason for these 360 degree cameras is that, maruti is most of the people's first car and people learn to drive in these cars and this will give the learners a peace of mind and i can see it helping newbies learn to drive and be confident in sketchy situations
That is so true, bro. I fall into the same group. I choose Baleno over all other options in the segment. A 360-degree camera with adaptive guidance is helping me a lot.
Not only that, while the highway infra is becoming better, the inner city or village roads are still the same - narrow and bumpy. Also people are buying cars like never before. Which means less space to maneuvre on the roads. I have a brezza zxi and the only reason I regret not buying the zxi + is the 360⁰ camera. Mind you I have been driving for the last 2 years and passed my driving liscence exam. 360 cam or at least the side cameras are a must these days.
@@IshanDesai101 Technology always helps Addon to the basics. Choosing an Auto centring steering doesn't make you dumb neither does Automatic over manual.
I understand your point as a newbie but depending on such tech doesn't improve your driving skill. What if those aids don't function at critical situation?
9:43 Exactly, Think of it this way, Suppose one bought a Maruti hatchback, he loved it, had a great time, he liked the fundamentals; but got bored or something and now wants an upgrade. Because he's having a very hasslefree and Reliable experience he then upgrades to a Maruti SUV, say Brezza. Now, what he observes is, "Oh it's got the same steering wheel, ok great! Oh same speedometer too, oh same climate control panel, same instrument console? Oh okay. Ah Same door handles? God please!!" And the list goes on and on. And now he has realised ki I've just got more ground clearance and nothing else 😂.
I like the 'make the fanboys wait' strategy. I dont hate any of these people, or know them for that matter, but its becoming a market where we have made listening a crime, and that also leads to somehow every vehicle on any channel being rated with nice words and the negativity lifted out so as to not offend anyone. It has become personal for the viewer apparently, "how dare you rate my vehicle badly". There's a difference between a product and an individual's decision to purchase it 🤷♂️. I'd love everyone to converse, but thats a 2 way street, not respecting the one way. For example, I loved the response of that person who wrote to you in your podcast, about how his father and he fell in love with the cb350. There was no hate there, there was an experience to be shared.
Loved that last bit. It resonated my thought. Even I love CB350 but it doesn't make any sense to hate Shumi for his disagreement with my opinion. We can be good friends even then!
@@suryateja2k11 I have never understood the hate. Even when they're harsh against a certain vehicle, there's always encouragement to be found in the video for you to go out and ride it, see for yourself, what's in it for you. The only time that was the exception was the orxa mantis. So why the hate? I don't understand why fanboys think of defense first and not improvement.
I don't think unless until there is a collective pressure from customers(which is rare). Had they considered genuine reviews, they should have given rear washer, wiper, defogger, 3 adjustable headrests, all electronic aids and TPMS as standard.
Coming to a 2025 Dzire video and being least interested in the safety section of the video shows that MotorInc has succeeded in communicating effectively sensationalism vs practicality. Kudos!
13:41 for a middle class mileage is bhagwan bcoz the a middle class pays the price of the car to attain luxury and comfort but the operation cost is always pegged against public transport. If it's on par or cheaper than public transport it a win for a middle class. Maruti being the middle class brand it has to think about it. Maruti understands Indians more than we Indians understands ourselves. They didn't go for GNCAP back then bcoz they read that the buyers not to worried about it but now they do. Whatever maruti does its well thought out
I just don't like the direction where Maruti is headed. I drove my friend's baleno and i also test drove the swift(new). The baleno is the better product in every way and it's available at a great price too. I don't get why people would go for the swift or the dzire when the baleno is that great under 10 lakhs. Maruti needs to have some dzirability into their products.
I’m sorry but the baleno is not as fun to drive as the swift. It’s got more body roll, the steering is less precise and the engine does not feel as enthusiastic as the swift’s.
@@ajayrathore8704 Get your hands on the Swift on a twisty road and you will feel the difference. The chassis is stiff which means the car feels like its turning around a point. The steering is quite direct and precise and above 2.5k RPM, the engine has a sporty tone to making it a joy to listen to. The only downside is that the new engine lacks torque at RPMs < 1k, which can make it challenging to start from an incline. The exported one comes with a mild hybrid system to circumvent this, but the Indian one sadly does not.
Is the AMT headnod or jerk noticable even for the rear passengers.?? (Even to those who don't know about driving) like causing vomit to people with motion sickness or is it something that we can notice only if we have a close watch???
We got swift as the first family car ever in 2006. It was the classic old DDIS engine. My father loved the way it delivered the power in the second gear. Like you can literally over take anything on the highway back then, just drop a gear. Now we own a ciaz which is a pretty relaxed car. Its engine is also smooth enough but for relaxed driving. It still gives around 20-21 kmpl. Lets see if Maruti drops entirely different ciaz in the future.
Rear AC went, hill hold assist, rear defogger,, 6 air bags, rear arm rest were once a VXI and ZXI options. Now they are all standard with LXI varient. Which I really appreciate on this car. Most of people don't care about performance to a point. Convenience of the family and pocket friendly is all we care about. Maintenance and spare parts availability of suzuki cars are great. This is a absolute value for money package in my opinion.
Baleno is still a good buy than Dzire any day. 1) Engine is main thing and it is 4 cylinder. 2) 16' Tyre with 170 mm clearance 3) UV cut glasses (it helps in india for sure) 4) Automatic IRVM. 2 misses Sunroof and TPMS. TPMS can be added and I personally dont like Sunroof.
In my opinion, the real question is why Maruti Suzuki didn’t use high-strength steel in earlier models of the Dzire and other cars. Why have they started implementing it now, especially when no one expected the Dzire to achieve a 5-star GNCAP rating? Was it purely to cut costs and maximize profits, or was it a disregard for road safety, assuming people would continue buying their cars regardless of safety concerns?
People are still buying their cars regardless of the 5 star Dzire. They are number 1 selling car manufacturer for I don't even know how many years. They now are giving 5 star cars because with this, they will attract larger audience who have safety as their prime moto. Eventually affecting and declining the sales of tata and honda for sure. For tata, their USP is safety only. Rest all areas require severe workup. So, with safety now with Maruti, tata buyers will have Maruti in their wishlist too.
04:01 that 0.8-litre, 2-cylinder diesel was SO efficient. Used to get stuck in the Gurgaon toll traffic (sometime around 2014) and still get more than 20kmpl easily. And the turbo blow-off sound made the clatter bearable.
Maruti should really be looking into a ciaz facelift. Ciaz and updated fronx along with current gen swift, dzire and baleno would cover all segments under 15L
@@motorinc the B segment sedans aren't selling in that high numbers, and then people don't really prefer a maruti suzuki sedan at that price point, the only reason ciaz sold before was due to the low price compared to rivals, otherwise everything was subpar about the ciaz. That's why City and Verna were so ahead in sales and now virtus and slavia do decent sales too, it's better for maruti suzuki to discontinue the ciaz other than a facelift or next gen.......
@@motorinci agree especially since it could do well with 6 airbags, but what is there now is still selling and its not like that segment is on fire locally or globally.
Hi. Thanks for such an illuminating discussion. I have a first gen 2011 manual VW diesel Polo - has done 73k kms. While the car still runs solid, I've been advised by VW service station to change all the four suspensions - and have been given a cost estimate of Rs. 50k. While I love my Polo, it has served me for 13+ years - and I've never kept a car beyond 8 years. I've always been divided on the idea of selling it off. Have been lately considering getting the Baleno Alpha AGS - after I watched the Baleno - Pivot car video. I then took a test drive and quite liked it's practicality and functionality. Nothing wow about it but it ticks all the boxes. My use case being 95% sedate city driving. I was eagerly waiting for your discussion on the new Dzire 2024 - and after having heard it, Ive made up my mind that its the Baleno thats a better car for my specific use case. So should I trade my Polo for the Baleno? Or should I hang on to my 2011 manual diesel Polo diesel and spend 50k on getting the new suspensions? Thank you Motorinc. You guys rock.
Please dont downgrade from that amazing machine to a maruti. I suffer the consequences of my decision due to this. Also get the suspension of you feel like it. Don't go on the word of only one corporate guy. Ask from your mechanic
@swaggychicken. Hi thanks for your reply. I really love my VW Polo man. I had sold my Ford Fusion to buy the VW Polo - and I made that decision in a heartbeat. This time around, the thought of selling my Polo for the Baleno has my mind and heart absolutely divided. Its just that I'm looking at the long term feasibility - how difficult would it be to maintain the Polo in the coming times with VW group not doing so well. While the group just launched the Skoda Kylaq and a VW avatar is around the corner, all does not seem well at VW/Skoda. If i buy the new car, I'd keep it for a long term again.
I was already amazed by how MS has pulled out Dzire so far. Now looking forward for the new Amaze. Btw had the pleasure of driving older gen Amaze(it was genuinely good for what it offered). This compact sedan space is heating up crazy with two launches. Hopefully this Amaze should work for Honda which will force them to launch better products again in India.
Regarding the Fuel Efficiency vs Enthusiastic Driving: The enthusiast market is so low that almost anyone catering to that market can't make it. I'm happy that some companies are still catering to the niche market. However, It's always better to have good fuel efficiency considering the Indian dependency on the Import of Fuel, the high number of people who can't afford 4-wheelers and for environment. We have very high taxes on cars & fuels, so we should try to get as much as possible from our investment in mobility
One more message for kartikeya... Completely agree with your comment on the ignis... Such an underrated car... I just hope they introduce the allgrip auto in its next upgraded release just like how it is in foreign markets... Would make it lethal
I heard one story that a bunch of youngsters were driving a new baleno at high speed and the driver chap was adjusting the seat while at a speed and then he lost control and crashed. The car was declared total loss but thankfully the car did its job well and all of them were saved with minor injuries. It also came out later the dealer repaired the car and sold it in grey/black market.
My friend's dad used to work for one of the Maruti's suppliers back then, The thickness of metal sheet as specified was 8 to 10mm but Maruti would tell them to make it at 8mm (may be to save few kgs)
I am tuning in after a while and must say that, apart from the well-constructed episode (which is evident in every MotorInc video) I also adore that you interact with your audience in the comment section, which very few UA-camrs do. You two are so gold. This channel has some irresistible vibes. Hope you two are not doing sorta black magic stuff to get us all engaged.
I really expected them to try out the hybrid system on this car but doesnt look like it What do you think on which car would they try the hybrid that they have been working on
Yes like Karthik said this Z series three cylinder engine is the building block for future hybrid - series hybrid engines etc etc but they should have first introduced this engine on the models like the Celerio or the Wagon R. This would have helped to retain the refined 1.2 four cylinder on models like the Swift and the Dzire as long as possible. The kink on the bumper to house the turn indicators doesn't look good. The drls should have doubled as the turn indicators on the higher trims. The projector headlights on the lower trims don't look cool enough. Neither the Spresso or the Ignis should get this suspension. It is the upcoming micro suv code named Y43 that should get this suspension.
After Crash test all I want to know is if suspension is good(for place like bengaluru) it is sold, which you covered pretty well. Maruti ticked all right boxes now. Few things: how useful is the boot and especially if purchased with CNG(is Shumi's Batla problem still valid?) Just very brief comparison with aura and current amaze should have been good.
Choosing a sedan these days feels like a reality show! 😜 - Honda Amaze: Smooth and classy, but secretly dreams of being a City when it grows up. 😂 - Maruti Dzire: Reliable as your mom’s flip-flops-gets the job done, but why does every cab driver have one? 😅 - Hyundai Aura: Loaded with features, but that front grille looks like it's about to eat the competition. 🍴 - Tata Tigor: Tough as nails, with a boot big enough to smuggle your cousin's entire wedding décor. 💪 Who’s your favorite? Or are you still ‘sedan-ding’ on the fence? 🚗💨
I loved this episode as usual. I would like to let you know to look into your Audio setup as there is an distinct audio tinnyness especially when Karthikey is speaking and slightly less with Shumi, but is there even my failing hearing could catch it up. Kindly look into it, as i am also latching onto the critical analysis like you guys do😅
That sun roof is too small to stick more than one kid out of it! Come on Maruti! Jokes aside, this was a well balanced MotorInc First! I feel bad for the demise of the 1.2 4cyl NA engine. 😢
Maruti doesn't make cars for enthusiasm. In a country where if you make 25k/month and considered a middle class. That extra Kmpl does make a difference. They are out to provide machine for those segment of society for whom owning a car would have left impossible. I really appreciate them for what they do.
I was invited for the launch and got to drive the car at the event. It was surprisingly good. Might have to rethink my honda only approach for my next car.
Well done MotorInc. "Doppio" was dope 👍 - Since Heartect has been upgraded and as platforms go, the day when the wagonR scores 5 stars Maruti would've effectively devalued the GNCAP ratings so we can bring the focus back to not having a crash to begin with. - The DZire will have significantly higher rear-seat occupancy than the Swift, so soft cushioning doesn't make sense. - A friend's Dad bought the previous gen DZire, knowing that a new one was coming because he wanted "to have a car where you can't tell if the engine is running or not".
We don't think it's that simple @nashwinder and the Baleno now has a very clear space in its segment. So, even if Fronx fixes its shortcomings it'll at best be an alternative to Fronx, not replace it!
Would love to see an Ignis review from Karthik. Has spoken about it many times before as well. Seems like he genuinely loves that car. And it is indeed great; test drove the AMT last week. As a Tiago owner, this really was something else❤
I take Kartikeya’s words as gospel truth…i relate to his observations at a personal level…i even suggested my father to get the underdog Ignis because he owns one…never regretted going by his opinions once.
Great video as always. However looking at the madness of e20, I have decided to hold onto my existing diesel dzire that was bought in 2017. It was the second dzire in our family, first one was a petrol Swift dzire. So this brand name has a very special place in our family.
I've read somewhere that they got a higher tensile strength steel with yield strength of 960 MPa or something like that for Dzire. They were able to put this into the Dzire because it is currently being manufactured by the Indian Steel industry which previously was not possible. It would have to be imported which would be prohibitively expensive or not possible at all. Now that Indian Steel industry has caught up, we can see more manufacturers using it. I think the recently facelifted Nissan Magnite also talks about high tensile steel being used in it.
Is the AMT lag or jerk noticable even for the rear passengers.?? (Even to those who don't know about driving) like causing vomit to people with motion sickness or is it something that we can notice only if we have a close watch???
I think it's great to have such focussed cars that do one thing great, like maruti prioritizing mileage is honestly AWESOME imo, if there's an hybrid I'd be super happy.
The last part with the names of the car is hilarious! One of our program director who is a French ginger lady visited our work site. We had booked her a cab and the day she was supposed to visit, we called the hotel reception and asked to convey her that the cab is ready (mobile roaming issue so couldn't call her directly). The reception called her and said "Swift Dzire is waiting for you ma'm"... She got scared and called (from someone's phone) to our manager asking what this means. She was actually taken a bit back and thought someone is 'taking her for a ride' . It has been around 10 years now to that incidence and we still laugh when we remember it... 😂
Completely agree with rear windscreen wipers & defogger should be must. TPMS though seems like something that would probably still be a luxury. For me a 300Rs handheld air-pressure gauge works fine. I keep a portable tyre-inflator worth 2500Rs too. So far in 2 years that has come handy once, when another car got a puncture and their spare was at 15ps. Then I could help them to get it to 33ps and this was in a remote area where there's no puncture guy within 20 km. They got lucky.
46:11 I think it's because fewer cylinders are easier to make emissions compliant due to the total piston ring perimeter being lower for the same capacity, which is also why you see the trend of motorcycle manufacturers ditching inline 4s for similarly sized inline 3s and parallel twins. (pls correct me if I'm wrong)
I commented almost same things on Carwale's post of Citroen Aircross' zero star Latin NCAP rating just yesterday. People began calling it unsafe without seeing that the report mentioned it being valid for Latin American market and the car's floor is rated stable.
He said a good point on which to choose MT or AMT and very well explained fuel efficiency with smooth drivable less dull noise better with AMT, because I'am manual person so good to know abt this new Dezire expects
so enjoyable as usual this one of the channels i rewatch simply can you very briefly tell between 3xo mx2pro and magnite teckno cvt petrol, which is better ? purely for city use.
Finally it clicked! Their seating arrangement feels so similar to that of Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson in 221B Baker Street. One can already see the parallels between them and our dynamic duo of MotorInc.
For free? Slow down 😆 You can explore changing your fog lights to similar sized but more powerful aftermarket aux lights. The problem is that this could void your warranty Saikrishna
From my pov, if a car has earned" 5 stars", this means that it has alteast met the standards of a specific crash test agency + it has a stable body shell & this brings peace to my mind. The standards probably were set with some basic safety norms in mind. Thus, I don't go for a 2 star or a 0 star car. Is my assessment right ?
Like we discussed it’s not so straightforward. The Scorpio N got 0 stars in another NCAP. In India it’s a 5 star car. How? We’ve spoken about this I. The video.
Rear screen wipers. I personally went to check the I10 grand and exter. Its crazy to realize that the most simplest rear screen wiper was available only the Asta models. Priced about 11.5 to 12.5 lakhs. My 12 year old i10 sportz has a rear screen wiper and washer. 😢 - Vipin.
Absolutely agree on the VW's 1.5 TSI start stop experience. It's so bad that once I start my car, the start stop is the 1st button I reach to turn it off.
I love how you both explain the truth behind the star ratings, people are so easily fooled these days, especially about how some cars get disqualified with a 0 star just because of an equipment not be present, Scorpio N in the Aussie NCAP is a good example. That said, this is a good improvement over the previous gen, however it still not appealing to me in terms of safety, crash tests are highly specific in terms of their conditions and Maruti cars are still built on a budget with the overall structure not being that strong. I was tboned by a Tata 407 at a relatively high speed (>40kmph or so) not that long ago in my Honda city, when my car was taken to the dealer for insurance claims etc I saw how well the structure of the car took the blunt of the force. Yes, I understand that sheet metal thickness isn't the way to measure truth sense of safety but on that day I was glad I had that thick sheet between me and a rusty old front bumper of the truck, if I could I would share the picture of how it almost punched through the sheet metal, almost.... But it didn't. Knowning that, I would still put some consideration towards have a thicker sheet between me and whatever is out there coming at me. Tata sheet metal do be looking quite thicc these days. If only the service was reliable 😢
Great episode !! - 1.2 NA on Fronx is lit, I like driving it more than my 1.5 NA GV - My assumption is : suzuki is not sending baleno, fronx, GV to gncap / bncap as they might not score full 5 stars due to non availability of 6 airbags on base model - Safety ratings is more of a marketing benchmark which is liquid .. say next time they put 75kmph as the speed etc ( as rightly mentioned by Karthik )
13:46 You guys are getting it all wrong! With people coming to terms with EVs that they were a FOMO and CNGs are a compromise Fuel efficient petrol cars are going to be the next big thing. The three cylinders on the Maruti's in this segment was due for long. Should have happened with the Tatas. Have owned three cars of Tatas till date. But what Maruti is doing with its cars with safety electronics and practical features is commendable. Still can't imaginge how difficult is it for Tata to give a HillHold on all their sluggish AMTs.

It has become personal for the viewer apparently, "how dare you rate my vehicle badly". There's a difference between a product and an individual's decision to purchase it 🤷♂️.
I'd love everyone to converse, but thats a 2 way street, not respecting the one way. For example, I loved the response of that person who wrote to you in your podcast, about how his father and he fell in love with the cb350. There was no hate there, there was an experience to be shared.
DT! Last bit- ❤️
Loved that last bit. It resonated my thought. Even I love CB350 but it doesn't make any sense to hate Shumi for his disagreement with my opinion. We can be good friends even then!
@@suryateja2k11 I have never understood the hate. Even when they're harsh against a certain vehicle, there's always encouragement to be found in the video for you to go out and ride it, see for yourself, what's in it for you. The only time that was the exception was the orxa mantis. So why the hate? I don't understand why fanboys think of defense first and not improvement.
@@darktitan8085 spot on mate!!
A genuine question that arises whenever I watch your videos is "Do manufacturers see reviews?" "Do they take notes and try to improve?"
What do you think?
@motorinc I genuinely can't say😅
I don't think unless until there is a collective pressure from customers(which is rare). Had they considered genuine reviews, they should have given rear washer, wiper, defogger, 3 adjustable headrests, all electronic aids and TPMS as standard.
They look up to the stakeholders

@@motorinc That's their core philosophy
13:41 for a middle class mileage is bhagwan bcoz the a middle class pays the price of the car to attain luxury and comfort but the operation cost is always pegged against public transport. If it's on par or cheaper than public transport it a win for a middle class. Maruti being the middle class brand it has to think about it. Maruti understands Indians more than we Indians understands ourselves. They didn't go for GNCAP back then bcoz they read that the buyers not to worried about it but now they do. Whatever maruti does its well thought out

I just don't like the direction where Maruti is headed. I drove my friend's baleno and i also test drove the swift(new). The baleno is the better product in every way and it's available at a great price too. I don't get why people would go for the swift or the dzire when the baleno is that great under 10 lakhs. Maruti needs to have some dzirability into their products.
Absolutely! Especially while it still has the K-Series!
Because then people will start calling it a tin can so I think they want to change their perception in the indian market.
I’m sorry but the baleno is not as fun to drive as the swift. It’s got more body roll, the steering is less precise and the engine does not feel as enthusiastic as the swift’s.
@@alileevil haven't driven the swift since the 2nd gen but Baleno is pretty fun to drive as it is
@@ajayrathore8704 Get your hands on the Swift on a twisty road and you will feel the difference. The chassis is stiff which means the car feels like its turning around a point. The steering is quite direct and precise and above 2.5k RPM, the engine has a sporty tone to making it a joy to listen to. The only downside is that the new engine lacks torque at RPMs < 1k, which can make it challenging to start from an incline. The exported one comes with a mild hybrid system to circumvent this, but the Indian one sadly does not.
I’ve been driving the baleno AMT in pune’s traffic and apart from the head knot from 1st to 2nd … it’s a great great experience
Right!
Is the AMT headnod or jerk noticable even for the rear passengers.?? (Even to those who don't know about driving) like causing vomit to people with motion sickness or is it something that we can notice only if we have a close watch???
We got swift as the first family car ever in 2006. It was the classic old DDIS engine. My father loved the way it delivered the power in the second gear. Like you can literally over take anything on the highway back then, just drop a gear.
Now we own a ciaz which is a pretty relaxed car. Its engine is also smooth enough but for relaxed driving. It still gives around 20-21 kmpl. Lets see if Maruti drops entirely different ciaz in the future.
Rear AC went, hill hold assist, rear defogger,, 6 air bags, rear arm rest were once a VXI and ZXI options. Now they are all standard with LXI varient. Which I really appreciate on this car. Most of people don't care about performance to a point. Convenience of the family and pocket friendly is all we care about. Maintenance and spare parts availability of suzuki cars are great. This is a absolute value for money package in my opinion.
Baleno is still a good buy than Dzire any day.
1) Engine is main thing and it is 4 cylinder.
2) 16' Tyre with 170 mm clearance
3) UV cut glasses (it helps in india for sure)
4) Automatic IRVM.
2 misses Sunroof and TPMS. TPMS can be added and I personally dont like Sunroof.

underrated comment
Shumi's AURA with the quick summary always AMAZE me and the DZIRE to come back to motorinc again and again is just Tigorous.
😅 What's a tigorous @prnv7? New kind of dinosaur?
In my opinion, the real question is why Maruti Suzuki didn’t use high-strength steel in earlier models of the Dzire and other cars. Why have they started implementing it now, especially when no one expected the Dzire to achieve a 5-star GNCAP rating? Was it purely to cut costs and maximize profits, or was it a disregard for road safety, assuming people would continue buying their cars regardless of safety concerns?
People are still buying their cars regardless of the 5 star Dzire. They are number 1 selling car manufacturer for I don't even know how many years. They now are giving 5 star cars because with this, they will attract larger audience who have safety as their prime moto. Eventually affecting and declining the sales of tata and honda for sure. For tata, their USP is safety only. Rest all areas require severe workup. So, with safety now with Maruti, tata buyers will have Maruti in their wishlist too.
04:01 that 0.8-litre, 2-cylinder diesel was SO efficient. Used to get stuck in the Gurgaon toll traffic (sometime around 2014) and still get more than 20kmpl easily. And the turbo blow-off sound made the clatter bearable.
I was waiting for this video from a couple of hours and it literally popped up 12mins ago.
Great video by great presenters.
Thanks for being here!
Maruti should really be looking into a ciaz facelift. Ciaz and updated fronx along with current gen swift, dzire and baleno would cover all segments under 15L
Forget facelift. They need a new Ciaz now!
@@motorinc the B segment sedans aren't selling in that high numbers, and then people don't really prefer a maruti suzuki sedan at that price point, the only reason ciaz sold before was due to the low price compared to rivals, otherwise everything was subpar about the ciaz. That's why City and Verna were so ahead in sales and now virtus and slavia do decent sales too, it's better for maruti suzuki to discontinue the ciaz other than a facelift or next gen.......
@@motorinci agree especially since it could do well with 6 airbags, but what is there now is still selling and its not like that segment is on fire locally or globally.
Hi. Thanks for such an illuminating discussion.
I have a first gen 2011 manual VW diesel Polo - has done 73k kms. While the car still runs solid, I've been advised by VW service station to change all the four suspensions - and have been given a cost estimate of Rs. 50k.
While I love my Polo, it has served me for 13+ years - and I've never kept a car beyond 8 years.
I've always been divided on the idea of selling it off.
Have been lately considering getting the Baleno Alpha AGS - after I watched the Baleno - Pivot car video. I then took a test drive and quite liked it's practicality and functionality. Nothing wow about it but it ticks all the boxes. My use case being 95% sedate city driving.
I was eagerly waiting for your discussion on the new Dzire 2024 - and after having heard it, Ive made up my mind that its the Baleno thats a better car for my specific use case.
So should I trade my Polo for the Baleno?
Or should I hang on to my 2011 manual diesel Polo diesel and spend 50k on getting the new suspensions?
Thank you Motorinc. You guys rock.
Bump! Pls help me decide, Motorinc! ⚖️
My taught is on the polo it as could do bit more of tune and service As will still rock compared to new cars, just my thoughts!
@ajayaswal191
Please dont downgrade from that amazing machine to a maruti. I suffer the consequences of my decision due to this.
Also get the suspension of you feel like it. Don't go on the word of only one corporate guy.
Ask from your mechanic
@swaggychicken. Hi thanks for your reply. I really love my VW Polo man.
I had sold my Ford Fusion to buy the VW Polo - and I made that decision in a heartbeat.
This time around, the thought of selling my Polo for the Baleno has my mind and heart absolutely divided.
Its just that I'm looking at the long term feasibility - how difficult would it be to maintain the Polo in the coming times with VW group not doing so well.
While the group just launched the Skoda Kylaq and a VW avatar is around the corner, all does not seem well at VW/Skoda.
If i buy the new car, I'd keep it for a long term again.
I was already amazed by how MS has pulled out Dzire so far. Now looking forward for the new Amaze. Btw had the pleasure of driving older gen Amaze(it was genuinely good for what it offered). This compact sedan space is heating up crazy with two launches. Hopefully this Amaze should work for Honda which will force them to launch better products again in India.
Yeah! Somebody has to!
Regarding the Fuel Efficiency vs Enthusiastic Driving:
The enthusiast market is so low that almost anyone catering to that market can't make it. I'm happy that some companies are still catering to the niche market. However, It's always better to have good fuel efficiency considering the Indian dependency on the Import of Fuel, the high number of people who can't afford 4-wheelers and for environment. We have very high taxes on cars & fuels, so we should try to get as much as possible from our investment in mobility
There’s no doubt that better efficiency is better. Boys were emotional… 😆

Forget it. It is Not going to come for India. (I'm not speculating)
Price will shoot to 12-15 lacs on road. Dead on arrival, just like Jimmy.
Ignis will be replaced with a rival to the Exter and Punch codenamed Y43.
I heard one story that a bunch of youngsters were driving a new baleno at high speed and the driver chap was adjusting the seat while at a speed and then he lost control and crashed. The car was declared total loss but thankfully the car did its job well and all of them were saved with minor injuries. It also came out later the dealer repaired the car and sold it in grey/black market.
Glad to know that the boys were okay . 🙏🏾
My friend's dad used to work for one of the Maruti's suppliers back then, The thickness of metal sheet as specified was 8 to 10mm but Maruti would tell them to make it at 8mm (may be to save few kgs)

I really expected them to try out the hybrid system on this car but doesnt look like it
What do you think on which car would they try the hybrid that they have been working on
There's a huge debate on this over on the Swift First episode Kshitij! 😅 A lot of people seem to think it'll be the Fronx.
Yes like Karthik said this Z series three cylinder engine is the building block for future hybrid - series hybrid engines etc etc but they should have first introduced this engine on the models like the Celerio or the Wagon R. This would have helped to retain the refined 1.2 four cylinder on models like the Swift and the Dzire as long as possible. The kink on the bumper to house the turn indicators doesn't look good. The drls should have doubled as the turn indicators on the higher trims. The projector headlights on the lower trims don't look cool enough. Neither the Spresso or the Ignis should get this suspension. It is the upcoming micro suv code named Y43 that should get this suspension.
Thanks JR for the details! Very helpful!
After Crash test all I want to know is if suspension is good(for place like bengaluru) it is sold, which you covered pretty well.
Maruti ticked all right boxes now.
Few things: how useful is the boot and especially if purchased with CNG(is Shumi's Batla problem still valid?)
Just very brief comparison with aura and current amaze should have been good.
Amaze - since the new one is around the corner, we didn’t. Aura - because of the rear suspension is not a great pick for the backseat.
I think Shumi'a appraisal will be great. He is keep impressing Karthik through his annotations.

Choosing a sedan these days feels like a reality show! 😜
- Honda Amaze: Smooth and classy, but secretly dreams of being a City when it grows up. 😂

Maruti doesn't make cars for enthusiasm. In a country where if you make 25k/month and considered a middle class. That extra Kmpl does make a difference. They are out to provide machine for those segment of society for whom owning a car would have left impossible. I really appreciate them for what they do.

I was invited for the launch and got to drive the car at the event. It was surprisingly good. Might have to rethink my honda only approach for my next car.
Great to know!
Well done MotorInc. "Doppio" was dope 👍
- Since Heartect has been upgraded and as platforms go, the day when the wagonR scores 5 stars Maruti would've effectively devalued the GNCAP ratings so we can bring the focus back to not having a crash to begin with.
- The DZire will have significantly higher rear-seat occupancy than the Swift, so soft cushioning doesn't make sense.
- A friend's Dad bought the previous gen DZire, knowing that a new one was coming because he wanted "to have a car where you can't tell if the engine is running or not".

Suggestion noted @nachiketdaithankar4405! But test cars aren't available 😅

Great video as always. However looking at the madness of e20, I have decided to hold onto my existing diesel dzire that was bought in 2017. It was the second dzire in our family, first one was a petrol Swift dzire. So this brand name has a very special place in our family.
The podcasts is amazing, great info and also is aesthetically pleasing😊
Glad you enjoy it @bharatjoshi4849! Thanks for joining us on this one.
Was waiting for this long time. Finally out. Before even starting this video I'm assured that I'm going to enjoy the conversations between you two
Morning!
I've read somewhere that they got a higher tensile strength steel with yield strength of 960 MPa or something like that for Dzire. They were able to put this into the Dzire because it is currently being manufactured by the Indian Steel industry which previously was not possible. It would have to be imported which would be prohibitively expensive or not possible at all.
Now that Indian Steel industry has caught up, we can see more manufacturers using it.
I think the recently facelifted Nissan Magnite also talks about high tensile steel being used in it.
Thanks for sharing @mostwanted_007

Completely agree with rear windscreen wipers & defogger should be must. TPMS though seems like something that would probably still be a luxury. For me a 300Rs handheld air-pressure gauge works fine. I keep a portable tyre-inflator worth 2500Rs too. So far in 2 years that has come handy once, when another car got a puncture and their spare was at 15ps. Then I could help them to get it to 33ps and this was in a remote area where there's no puncture guy within 20 km. They got lucky.
TPMS can be a safety net for people who aren't as careful in checking their tyre pressures regularly @vaibhavdlv!

I rate Amezing 9/10 for shumi's quick summary 🎉
46:11 I think it's because fewer cylinders are easier to make emissions compliant due to the total piston ring perimeter being lower for the same capacity, which is also why you see the trend of motorcycle manufacturers ditching inline 4s for similarly sized inline 3s and parallel twins. (pls correct me if I'm wrong)
I commented almost same things on Carwale's post of Citroen Aircross' zero star Latin NCAP rating just yesterday. People began calling it unsafe without seeing that the report mentioned it being valid for Latin American market and the car's floor is rated stable.
He said a good point on which to choose MT or AMT and very well explained fuel efficiency with smooth drivable less dull noise better with AMT, because I'am manual person so good to know abt this new Dezire expects

Just one question
Should i pick tata punch over baleno/Desire/Amaze?
Tho waiting for new amaze.
Wait for Amaze. Definitely Baleno over Punch. Let’s see what the Amaze does.
From my pov, if a car has earned" 5 stars", this means that it has alteast met the standards of a specific crash test agency + it has a stable body shell & this brings peace to my mind. The standards probably were set with some basic safety norms in mind. Thus, I don't go for a 2 star or a 0 star car. Is my assessment right ?
Like we discussed it’s not so straightforward. The Scorpio N got 0 stars in another NCAP. In India it’s a 5 star car. How? We’ve spoken about this I. The video.
I saw the red dzire on display at a mall here, looks seriously classy!
Good to have your take P!
Rear screen wipers. I personally went to check the I10 grand and exter. Its crazy to realize that the most simplest rear screen wiper was available only the Asta models. Priced about 11.5 to 12.5 lakhs. My 12 year old i10 sportz has a rear screen wiper and washer. 😢 - Vipin.

Absolutely agree on the VW's 1.5 TSI start stop experience. It's so bad that once I start my car, the start stop is the 1st button I reach to turn it off.
That bit doesn’t feel very premium! 😆
It also says Start-Stop which is the order you follow once the car stops 😂
I love how you both explain the truth behind the star ratings, people are so easily fooled these days, especially about how some cars get disqualified with a 0 star just because of an equipment not be present, Scorpio N in the Aussie NCAP is a good example.
That said, this is a good improvement over the previous gen, however it still not appealing to me in terms of safety, crash tests are highly specific in terms of their conditions and Maruti cars are still built on a budget with the overall structure not being that strong.
I was tboned by a Tata 407 at a relatively high speed (>40kmph or so) not that long ago in my Honda city, when my car was taken to the dealer for insurance claims etc I saw how well the structure of the car took the blunt of the force. Yes, I understand that sheet metal thickness isn't the way to measure truth sense of safety but on that day I was glad I had that thick sheet between me and a rusty old front bumper of the truck, if I could I would share the picture of how it almost punched through the sheet metal, almost.... But it didn't.
Knowning that, I would still put some consideration towards have a thicker sheet between me and whatever is out there coming at me.
Tata sheet metal do be looking quite thicc these days. If only the service was reliable 😢
Glad to hear you were safe RS! Take care. And thanks for sharing your thoughts.
This is the best video on this car.
Great review, new age presentation on cards... Great

Will this design extend to the Swift as well ?
The Swift's already out, TCS - didn't see the MotorInc First episode?
Great episode !!
- 1.2 NA on Fronx is lit, I like driving it more than my 1.5 NA GV
- My assumption is : suzuki is not sending baleno, fronx, GV to gncap / bncap as they might not score full 5 stars due to non availability of 6 airbags on base model
- Safety ratings is more of a marketing benchmark which is liquid .. say next time they put 75kmph as the speed etc ( as rightly mentioned by Karthik )
Hey J! Well done on picking the K on the Fronx! It’ll age beautifully.
Heard in some videos that the Amaze is getting the iDTEC. Any clue ?
13:46 You guys are getting it all wrong! With people coming to terms with EVs that they were a FOMO and CNGs are a compromise Fuel efficient petrol cars are going to be the next big thing. The three cylinders on the Maruti's in this segment was due for long. Should have happened with the Tatas. Have owned three cars of Tatas till date. But what Maruti is doing with its cars with safety electronics and practical features is commendable. Still can't imaginge how difficult is it for Tata to give a HillHold on all their sluggish AMTs.
