I bought one of these 2 months ago. It's a complete beauty. Great car, looks small but it actually offers great space. It's a good option if you live in the city. If you live in the mountain, I don't recommend it a lot, but for a daily city life, it does perfect for a family of 4 or 5 people. Mine is only manual, it's what we drive the most in Costa Rica haha.
I am 6'1" pero this is really the car that I like. Spacious sa loob, di ko inexpect. And the style is unique. Saka hindi matakaw sa space sa kalsada. And obviously, mahal na gasolina ngayon, fuel efficiency should also be priority.
7:51 really sold it for me! I actually got the mid variant because I'm more comfortable driving a manual. It really is a fun car to drive. BTW, the prices have gone up significantly since this review. At any rate, thank you, Reygan for your excellent review!
Thanks for the review. I drove a 2007 Suzki Swift with 4-speed automatic transmission, for three years, mostly in town. I could not ask for a better car. Spare parts are a different story.
Suzuki is bringing its cars back the the U.S. mainland in 2023. I was a Valet for about two years and all the Suzuki cars I've gotten the opportunity to drive I've REALLY liked. I'm hoping the Dzire is a model they bring to the states (The Mitsubishi Mirage/G4 is THE ONLY vehicle in the econo-sub-compact market right now and I think it could use some competition)...it reminds me of the Kizashi, only like it got hit with a shrink-ray
I always look forward when i got to drive my brother's dzire. I agree on most in this video. When i drive, on manual mode i lift the gas pedal then upshift., Just like a regular manual... Feel na feel ko sporty drive nya. I love the engine note, feeling mo mabilis pero nasa below 120s ka lang. Maganda din kasi shares same pangilalim with swift of the same generation. Ayaw ko sa swift is, it is a cvt.
Na enjoy mo din finally yung manual mode ng dzire. Great value for money. AGS repairs na lang problema. Dadami na din sana shops matuto mag ayos ng AGS at mawala na takot in owning an AGS.
We have dzire 5months old gl ags,, really good enough power when u get it manual mode.. super fun sporty in long drive ... thank u suzuki japan 🇯🇵 for affordable car,, you're people's automobile 🚘 💖
Thank you so much Sir Reygan, for doing this drive feel review, been waiting for it, and I'm glad because even it has weird characteristics, you gave it a lot of positive impressions, and I'm happy with it. 😊😊
Many Filipinos (including me) love the Swift. The exterior design really looks good 👍 But based on sales last year, many more Filipinos bought the Dzire than the Swift 😅 Most likely bec of practicality (the larger cargo space bec of the trunk) and the more affordable price.. But I still love the Swift 😊❤
Also, the higher ground clearance of Dzire is much more appropriate to most flooded, potholes-ridden, and uneven roads here in our country. Still, as a swift owner, I bet we all consider this but our love for the car prevails. Hahaha ps. Bigger wheels and lower ground clearance have its driving advantages though :)
@@Gteesma Yes, the higher ground clearance of the Dzire is also a possible factor in the sales discrepancy w the Swift 😊👍 'Our love for the car prevails'. I like that 👍👍👍
The Dzire 2021 model has good features compared to the Swift like traction control, power-folding side mirror and the rear aircon vent, that's the reason why people prefers the Dzire with a 200k price lower than the Swift. But undeniably, the Swift is really a head-turner.
Great car i own this same color dzire (2019 model) in India. Cute, small and beautiful car and fun to drive this car!! Absolutely a fantastic car by suzuki
Excellent car in its segment. No one else has the same equipment for the same price. At least in Latin America. I had the GLX 5MT version for 4 years and no problem, totally reliable. Only 2 things that can be improved, the first is the comfort of the suspension, quite hard at low speeds, on the highway it is much more comfortable. The 2nd one that greatly affects the comfort and stability of the car are the Apollo brand tires. Very bad tires, they only serve to save fuel, I exchanged them for michelin XM2+ of the same size and the car improved in suspension, wet grip and corner stability at high speed. A recommendation for those who have one or are decided for one, change the tires for good quality ones, you will not regret it.
Point 2 .... exactly on point + the hard tires sounds -_- ... i have one since last April and after couple of months of driving i feel uncomfortable .. i thought it was the suspension system in first ! like feeling everything or little defection on the road , but tried same car for a friend with new tires ..it was a whole new level ...so smooth like u have upgraded the suspension system itself .. But do u recommend the same sizes as the Apollo ones or a different wider profile (as mentioned in the catalogue) maybe for more stability from your experience ? i didn't changed mine yet
Sir, might I suggest for you to also test the ground clearance of each car since we are in the Philippines and the roads are, hmmm, not so good hehe. Nevertheless, I love your videos!! Keep it up!
I always knew you were a Suzuki fan, in your own way. And yes, Suzukis are always fuel efficient. Thanks for the review! Another Suzuki highlighted here. I know you also drove the Swift and enjoyed it quite a lot. For both to be compared to a Mini is quite a testament to how Suzuki tunes their cars properly, based on body type. Their MPVs drive really well too.
Last week, I borrowed my sister's Dzire. We went from Iloilo City to Caticlan to spend holiday in Boracay. Full tank from Iloilo City. 5 passengers + driver. Balikan namin, half tank lang na consume na gas - around 800+ kms. Aircon is sobrang lamig, naka 1 lang ang setting. I did not like the AGS - nag je jerk pagnag.a.upshift. You need to release gas then step on it again to avoid jerking on below rpm: from gear 1-2 = 2.25k rpm from gear 2-3 = 2k rpm from gear 3-4 = 1.75k rpm
@@ReygansRides 4-5 hrs one way. The road has a lot of twists and turns. Mostly made of asphalt. The view is nice. I enjoyed the drive tbh. There are a few potholes due to continues rain because habagat in the early weeks of Sep'24. It would have been a perfect ride if we used an SUV with a manual tranny. Driving at night is a different matter though, there are no street lights.
can it shift at will in manual mode? meaning you don't have to reach 20km/hr to shift to 2nd gear? because most automatics are controlled to only shift at 20/40/60 km/hr
I've suggested to you few months ago to test manual.dzire and yet you continued with ags..... still capturing the drive feel and peppines of the engine. If you ever get a chance to try manual you'll hear the engine singing.... and transmission is greatly tuned... just as the one on the Swift(manual of course)
@@ReygansRides sorry it comes with the name kia soluto in Philippines. Who do u compare with it? Especially AC in the back seats during the bot summmer?
Wow! This car can speed up if needed without straining sir Reygan? Coz other cars with 1.5 non turbo whether it be a sedan or crossover/mpv would strain a lot when going up 3 digits in speed.
The dzire is actually not at all desirable. Hahahaah. Siguro sa styling ng likod sintu sinto na ampanget. Pero ang ganda naman ng fuel efficiency nya. Atlit hahaah.

Best Driving Review i saw so far ♥️
Hi! How to know if the model is really of 2022 and not the 2021 DZIRE ? Thank you.
sir, kelangan po bang e release ang gas pedal pag mag-upshift sa manual mode?. at pano naman po pag naka drive mode?
That sound can be heard also even you're in automatic mode as u accelarate it..I loved my suzuki dzire model 2020..I named it "MISU"😊
Nice and detailed content, thanks for sharing this upload 👍
can it shift at will in manual mode? meaning you don't have to reach 20km/hr to shift to 2nd gear? because most automatics are controlled to only shift at 20/40/60 km/hr
GL MT dzire ko pero sa mga nababasa ko sa group namin kelangan lang nasa 2000 pataas ang RPM para mag shift siya.
finally, I subscribed. how about a comparison between Dzire and Alsvin - price point, tech, driving experience, etc. thanks
Thanks for the sub!
Thank you sa review ito gusto ko na car. Salamat and stay safe sir.
Someone please tell me "automated manual transmission" works? Is it like a manual motorcycle? Is it Just release gas pedal then shift and no clutch?

Thank you sir reygan for the detailed review
Hello po. Ano po ang kulay niyang suzuki dzire niyo sa video? Salamat po?
Sherwood brown
Do you have to ease-off the throttle before shifting?
Yes
Really love this Suzuki especially the brand's AGS that had European car model vibe on it. Along with the Vitara's watch that gave me that vibe also.
Based on your experience, which do you think has an overall better driving experience, Suzuki Dzire or Kia Soluto?
How much na po ba ang SRP ng Dzire ngayon?
this is the most worth to buy vehicle among the rest.
gusto ko swift hatchback pa din,maporma at spacious.
As a swift owner I feel offended by the title xD
Still gonna watch the video though. Lol
I support you as a Swift owner. 👍😊
Swift supremacy!!!! 📣📣
@@eca7053 👍👍👍😅
Swift is still a head-turner so don't get offended hehehe
parehas lang sila engine kaya oks. lang yan. mas pogi padin si swift.
Suzuki should bring the tiny diesel here.. In India, they have it long time ago.. Its a must. Fuel price is on the moon
What's the top speed of Suzuki dzire AGS?
secret. 😉
Got review. Can u compare it with kia Pegas??
We dont have the Pegas here
@@ReygansRides sorry it comes with the name kia soluto in Philippines. Who do u compare with it? Especially AC in the back seats during the bot summmer?
Awesomeness. What other cars on other segments do you know that can provide similar handling?
The Mazdas
You opted for an auto for ease of use but highly adviced to use manual mode. It defeats the purpose. AGS is good but it needs REFINEMENT.
This is brilliant
Looking forward to have Dzire after wedding.
Balita ko mahirap to sa long term pag nasira yung AGS kasi buong AGS talaga ang papalitan. 100k din yun.
thats why go for GL manual
dahil loko-loko mga taga casa. clutch cable lang naputol gusto palitan buong AGS system. Kaya marami na ngayon alangan kumuha ng AGS eh.
Which is more expensive to replace, AGS or CVT?
Would probably better if this was just sold as a normal 5 speed manual or a normal automatic
Sports car sound 😅- im using this car in uae it is fun to drive.
Anong difference ng AGS sa CVT ni vios? Same lang din silang may manual at matic.
AGS uses a clutch to shift gears, CVT uses belts without a clutch.
I will probably buy this...
Timing chain naba to
I beg to disagree swift if much more fun to drive and also much more fuel saving
wow...fuel efficiency is great
Wow! This car can speed up if needed without straining sir Reygan? Coz other cars with 1.5 non turbo whether it be a sedan or crossover/mpv would strain a lot when going up 3 digits in speed.
It can hit illegal speeds without strain. Transmission tuning is 👍👍
And also the low curb weight of the car contributes to it
