There’s an all-new Suzuki Dzire in town and this time it bears no resemblance whatsoever to the Swift, at least on the outside. What it does have in common with its hatch sibling is aggressive pricing, with the entry-level 1.2 GA starting at N$224 900, and the 1.2 GL+ priced at N$246 900 in manual guise and N$266 900 as an auto. At that level it comfortably undercuts the soon-to-be-replaced Honda Amaze (N$253 600 to N$292 400) and Hyundai Grand i10 Sedan (N$279 900 to N$309 900).
