The article tests the new Maruti Suzuki Dzire’s zero to 100 km/h acceleration time with both its manual and automated manual transmissions. The testing was conducted on a dry, 3rd-gear accelerated launch to achieve the optimal results.
Results:
* Manual Transmission (MT) – 13.04 seconds to reach 100 km/h from standstill
* Automated Manual Transmission (AMT) – 12.54 seconds to reach 100 km/h from standstill
The article concludes that both transmissions are able to impress, with the AMT version slightly edging ahead of the MT version due to its faster shifting gears. However, the results also suggest that the additional complexity and weight of the AMT may not compensate for the gains in speed.
Overall, the tests demonstrate that the new Maruti Suzuki Dzire is quick and responsive in both manual and automated guise, making it a contender in the competitive compact sedans market.
