Maruti Suzuki Swift Dzire Tour is available in a single White shade with non painted bumpers and a stripped down interior. The car is actually sold for taxi operators as the new Dzire lacked the space being provided in the boot by the previous version. It is powered by the same 1.3 L diesel motor producing 75 HP and 190 Nm of torque. It comes mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox and returns a mileage of around 18-20 kmpl in everyday riding conditions. The car can be fitted with nearly all the equipment from the Maruti dealership itself.

Hyundai i20 Elite petrol is a better option when considering between Swift petrol and the same. It comes with a 1197cc, 4-cylinder motor producing 81.8 BHP @ 6,000 rpm and 114.7 NM @ 4,000 rpm. The car comes with a 5-speed manual gearbox and returns a certified mileage of 18.5 kmpl. The 295 liter of boot space on the Elite i20 makes it a real life practical car and huge 45 liter of fuel tank saves refuel timings. The top variant comes with excellent comfort and safety features whereas its outstanding style makes it the best premium hatchback of India at its price range. It comes with a tag of INR 5,30,000-7,17,000.

The engine and performance values of both the Swift LDi and VDi remains exactly the same as each other. Both the cars get a 1.3L (1248 cc) diesel motor producing 74 BHP and 190 NM of torque. The mileage for both the cars remain same at 25.2 kmpl. Even the important dimensions like ground clearance and overall length, width & height remains the same for both the vehicles. The difference on the outside can be seen in the form of black door handles and rear view mirrors of the LDi whereas on the inside, you can see the manual windows and an empty music player space on the dashboard. Even the tachometer is missing from the LDi. The best option is to go for the VDi as total cost of the additions like central locking and other features are much higher than the price difference between them.

The Maruti Swift Diesel 2010 returned a mileage 16 kmpl in the city traffic whereas the highway value stays mostly between 18-19 kmpl.

The 5-speed manual transmission worked best at its time. The uppermost trim of the Swift has features like airbags, ABS and 15 inch alloy wheels. India's favorite car had a seating capacity of 5 adults, with a boot space of 232 liters.

Maruti Suzuki Dzire Tour would be a better vehicle than the Swift Dzire for commercial purposes. This is all because of the large boot space available in the Tour version. The new version has a 3995 mm length out of which the boot space becomes very little whereas the Tour version had 4160 mm of length having a large boot, making it a better option for commercial use.

Tata Zest diesel is surely a powerful car and the 90 PS version of Tata Zest is quicker than Maruti Suzuki Swift Dzire. The other 75 PS version has a bit lower pick up than the Dzire.
