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

[@ayazahmad4633]

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.

[@darktitan8085]

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.

[@motorinc]

DT! Last bit- ❤️

[@dhruvpansare3369]

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.

[@motorinc]

Absolutely! Especially while it still has the K-Series!

[@ajayrathore8704]

Because then people will start calling it a tin can so I think they want to change their perception in the indian market.

[@alileevil]

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]

@@alileevil haven't driven the swift since the 2nd gen but Baleno is pretty fun to drive as it is

[@alileevil]

@@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.

[@veracity8283]

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!

[@motorinc]

[@pranay_puranik]

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 😂.

[@saif_sayyad]

A genuine question that arises whenever I watch your videos is "Do manufacturers see reviews?" "Do they take notes and try to improve?"

[@motorinc]

What do you think?

[@saif_sayyad]

@motorinc I genuinely can't say😅

[@uaeindi]

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

Or are you still ‘sedan-ding’ on the fence? 🚗💨

😆😆

[@JR-ir9bo]

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.

[@motorinc]

Thanks JR for the details! Very helpful!

[@JamesBond-ln5ff]

I think I saw Shumi on youtube shorts today. He was in the background, testing the Royal Enfield Goan 350 Classic.

[@techgadgetsandelectronicsi4191]

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.

[@motorinc]

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.

[@VikasJaink]

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.

Hola VJ!

How is the amt overall , the head nod character typically?. For for a automatic car driven 90% in city should we even consider this or better off with i20 CVT or upcoming amaze which will have CVT too?

46:42 i have an 8-yrs old Baleno n thinking of upgrading to Seltos . Emotionally i am an enthusiast and rationally my parents will benefit from higher seating and my wife will benefit from better driving position and bonet visibility. Is it a sensible decision?

[@motorinc]

It’s a great idea! Tell us more about your needs?

[@mananshah3620]

@motorinc basically I have WFH and so no daily commutes. Occasionally we go around city drives and some 1-2 highway trips every month. My parents dnt say but u find them struggle a bit getting in n out of Baleno now as they cross 65. I love my car but rationally thinking abt E20, BS7, better safety equipment, higher seating position both for parents and my wife (who is just learning to drive and has to guess the bonnet) plus routine repairs like brake pads, suspension and tires in Baleno prompts me to think of upgrading. Plus as Shumi says, we never know how much time we got and i looove cars so i just wana tick a box on my bucket list of buying a big car.

[@soorya7519]

Should we wait for a hybrid next year or just get this or the Amaze?

[@motorinc]

Definitely wait for the Amaze.

[@nayanbhalotia]

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.

[@nashwinder]

19:30 does this mean if the use this suspension on the fronx you'd recommend it over the baleno?

[@motorinc]

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!

[@motorinc]

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.

[@kishorgite1]

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… 😆

[@vamshivk5562]

I get that focusing more on 5 stars makes us not have a discussion on learning to drive safe. BUT, having a 5 star rated car is like an insurance and insurance is for unexpected events, which you can never dream of. That is the reason why helmets are mandatory and Dual channel abs, traction control are supposed to be mandatory. You having phenomenonal skill has got nothing to do with your survival in the event of a crash or an oil spill on a rainy day and your bike loosing control. Just like an arai helmet is going to give me the mental comfort of safety, a 5 star rated car is going to do the same and we should be hyped up about a mass manufacturer giving 6 air bags and 5 star safety as standard. It's like an arai helmet is automatically on your head everytime you ride a bike, you don't need it in most rides and yes you having better skill will reduce your crashes, but when you do crash, you are happy that there is an helmet on your head that auto applied on you. Tomorrow if there is a tech that automatically had your head wrapped in an air bubble as you hit something, just like helite turtle, it is true that the skill is going to make a difference, in preventing such an event in the first place. But now that you are in a crash your chances of surviving have gone up. I do not understand why shumi is in agreement when it's motorcycles and not when it's cars.

[@motorinc]

[@smarterhumans295]

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 ?

[@asifzbaig]

For the refinement part, I remember Maruti had some ads for Dzire where they highlights this capability by saying that you'll not even know if the car is On or Not. Maruti is now getting envolved in star and features race just because they also might not have that much confidence in there new mills. .

[@motorinc]

That’s in the past now. 🙁

[@akashsambhangi]

Kudos to Suzuki for going the extra mile and reenforcing the structure. 👏 You see adding High strength steel in the load paths was never a big challenge but they only did this after all the backlash they got :) So people who criticized suzuki for poor star rating should also be credited for this change. Karthik mentioned the weight has gone up by only 40kg, BUT..... this car must have saved a good amount of weight with the downsized 3 cylinder engine whereas the Baleno still has old 4 cylinder engine hence the 100kg weight difference is seen, so i guess the structural changes done to Dzire and Baleno are probably identical.

[@motorinc]

But so has equipment. But good point.

[@abir95571]

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

[@pacificsword1632]

This improvement of the safety was so simple. It’s a bit weird why they didn’t do this earlier. But good the market leader is finally there. The front change is interesting and I understand why the sunroof is there (much as I hate it), but I think they missed a trick on the rear seat. The Dzire is basically the rear seat car, and the better seat would have been nicer as all of us will end up in it once it hits the cab segment ultimately This will sell and well. But there could be more updates. It’s basically the same car and not the new gen as the headlights would have you think Also does this get load sensors for seat belts, or is that too much to ask for in a Maruti?.

Hullo P! No load sensors. But, they are using the new logic now. Change of state triggers the alarm. 😁

[@akseffect88]

The fuel efficiency thing only makes a difference if you are driving more than 15000km a year. 3km per litre more fuel efficiency will save you 15000 Rs more i.e. 1250 Rs a month. That's like 3 Starbucks drinks whose experience lasts 1.5 hours total vs a car you'd probably be driving 40hours to cover those 1250 km monthly. But unfortunately people don't understand it. The numbers look good on paper but aren't that helpful. It's like how people crib when fuel prices go up by 2Rs. but then they'd probably end up spending barely 50Rs more in a month.

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 😢

That 5 star rating seems more of a marketing gimmick, as u guys rightly said we need drivers to improve in safety rather than have a 5 star, also so much mileage seems to be an overkill.. swift diesel gave me around 27kmpl on a highway run, I was happy cause of a diesel engine torque but on a petrol definitely performance will take a hit..

Top zxi+ should come without sunroof too. And add armrest and ventilated seats with electronic irvm and 170mm ground clearance plus 16 inch alloy wheels.

[@motorinc]

Thanks for the inputs N!

[@niranjanvijayan726]

This is to Schumi, STOP interrupting Karthik when he is seriously talking about the product. It just goes out of way sometimes and we are not able to get the feel of it. But, but don’t stop your jab!

[@kurroth]

Thank you for your insights! Especially on the safety aspect. I wonder why the new Swift did not manage a 5* rating....

[@motorinc]

It hasn’t been tested/results aren’t out yet. But in Japan it got 4 stars. And the tests there have become super tough.

[@kurroth]

@@motorinc Thanks!

Sir How Safe is the Car and For Old people how is the seat Comfort

[@motorinc]

Safety - we will stress on us driving better. The car is fine. For elders - the dzire will be good. Although a bit low to get in and out of.

[@yadhunayt]

I think this video answered the question i had to start with... Why remove the swift from the dzire... Now i know...

[@motorinc]

Glad we could help @yadhunayt! 😊

[@atharvspatil25]

Front and back don't match with the side profile of the car. It's curvy from the side, the roofline and it's sharp on the front and at the back. I bet it'll look really good on Amaze's side profile.

Hi MI Family.. I am really in a 🥒 of sorts, I had almost booked a Tata Curvv n backed out. Lokking for help really on this - Is there a major change due for XUV 700. That beast of a car seems to be better than anything in terms of cost, engine, drive exp. Ofcourse happy to hear if if anyone feels there is a better car at 20 - 22L budget. As usual Shumi n KS ❤ the info regarding what is happening over all with regards to market. Also it would be very helpful if u also could spare time on query regarding XUV

[@motorinc]

We’re not sure how big a change it will be, but Mahindra will update the XUV 700 next year.

Hey Motorinc, A little bit off topic I'm planning to buy a KTM Duke 250. Now, I'm torn between the TFT and non-TFT versions of the Duke 250. The TFT model comes with an ebony black color option, which looks sleek, but my heart was always set on the electronic orange color, which is available on both the TFT and the non-TFT model. Here's the catch: the non-TFT model is currently available with a ₹12,000 difference, which includes: - ₹8,000 cash discount - ₹5,000 KTM branded helmet (which is a great addition) - 1 extra free service The TFT model, on the other hand, has no discounts and costs around ₹12,000 more than the non-TFT version. Considering my usage will be limited to city commutes, do you think the TFT screen is worth the extra cost? Or should I go for the non-TFT model with the electronic orange color and save some money? That said I can spare the extra ₹ 12,000 but am concerned if the color TFT will add extra to the maintenance cost. What's your recommendation?

[@mithun223]

Maruti was always like we don't need that we don't need this in our cars people are upgrading from 2 wheelers. Now Dzire shows the change in mindset. They still lug to mileage reducing bhp's taking out fun driving quotient, India has moved far away that's why competition is rising Maruti sinking in market share

[@shubhamgarg4370]

Aftermarket Seat covers might be an issue as new Dzire gets front seat airbags, thoughts ?

[@motorinc]

Yep, for front seats - definitely. Not for the rear seat.

[@atharvspatil25]

Front and back don't match with the side profile of the car. It's curvy from the side the roofline and it's sharp on front and the side. I bet it'll look really good on Amaze's side profile.

[@RevsAndWheels]

The front-end reminds me of Honda Amaze

[@motorinc]

It does a bit!

[@_abhimanyu.]

I have never found any of Maruti cars Desirable.Rightly said,ive always found them to be uncle cars.Look at the Virtus,Nexon,Creta,Scorpio-N, Seltos ( irrespective of the segment).They look and feel desirable.

[@farzanbatliwala1779]

So, wait for the Honda Amaze to hit the market?

[@motorinc]

Take a test drive of the Dzire @farzanbatliwala1779 and if doesn't speak to you, may be waiting for the Amaze is a choice you can make.

[@SoMeRaNdOmeLePhAnT_0-0-7]

yeah, it would be a better decision to wait for Amaze launch

[@monishdas9053]

Will there be a FiRST on Scram 440?

[@rupeshgupta5860]

Shumi please review bear 650 and tell us how does it compare to scrambler 400x

[@motorinc]

Noted!

[@mohnishr481]

Mileage is good, but they should also focus on the driving experience. I think with technology we can acheive both

[@motorinc]

Exactly!

[@drsarkars]

Shumi please reveal from where do you get your clothes. Plea from a motorinc premium subscriber.

[@motorinc]

😆

[@rajatghosh6613]

Late to the game. Are you planning to pitch Dzire against virtus. Would be a fun segement - MisMatch. One segment above vs one segment below.

[@motorinc]

Interesting! But don't you think it'd be an unfair comparison @rajatghosh6613? 🤔

[@rajatghosh6613]

@ exactly that. Comparison itself mostly is unfair but with your editing skills and content presentation, you just might be able to pull it off. Give it a MotorInc touch.

[@spider123839]

Only this channel does proper review of a new car, other channels just feel like unboxing channels. 🙂

[@motorinc]

Thank you for joining in the conversation too! Appreciate it.

[@siddharthMakawana]

Drove the new dzire, didn't like it much. Yeah it feels robust but the engine is not fun, many time it feels out of breath in 3rd gear and some vibrations. Suddenly rpm went too low and felt like engine is dying like aftermarket cng though what i drove was zxi+ petrol. Don't know why but after 100 kms i was light headed and nauseous which i never been in a sedan.

[@motorinc]

Thanks for sharing @siddharthMakawana! If you've driven the previous gen Dzire, did you feel this way there too?

[@siddharthMakawana]

Yes I've ridden all dzires but never felt this way.

[@thefastelephant94]

Now we're not sure if its a slow Audi A-Series that wants to overtake or just a new Dzire trying to overtake. Great!
