BMW M340i vs Maruti Suzuki Dzire Comparison

The prices are competitive enough and BMW will like to believe that the lack of a credible rival at this stage will help it capture the compact premium sedan market. The premium car buyer in India will like that it retains its traditional strengths and yet gives a bit more by way of luxury and comfort, giving it a more all-rounder appeal than before. Expect to see a few of these on the roads - could have been more - had the automobile market not been badly hammered down as it were.

The new Dzire then is just a great all-round package. It looks nice, especially compared to the older versions, is packed full of gadgets, and gets both manual and AMT option. While it might not be the cheapest offering, it does make for a good middle ground, by offering a capable engine, good fuel efficiency and decent features. Couple that with Maruti’s trusted after-sales service and you have all the important boxed checked.
