Maruti Dzire Tour S CNG specifications leaked

A leaked certification document suggests that Maruti Suzuki could be gearing up to launch a CNG variant of the Dzire Tour S. The document also reveals detailed specifications of the Dzire Tour S CNG.

The Dzire Tour S CNG is based on the last generation Dzire and is aimed at cab operators. As per the certificate issued by the Vehicle Research & Development Establishment (VRDE), the car has the exact same dimensions as the regular 2nd generation Dzire which was on sale earlier. It measures 3,995 mm in overall length, 1,695 mm in width and 1,555 mm in height. It has a wheelbase of 2,430 mm and the car weighs 1,480 kg (gross weight).

The Dzire Tour S CNG is powered by a 1.2-litre, 4-cylinder petrol engine, which can also run on CNG. On petrol, the engine produces 83 BHP @ 6,000 rpm, which drops to 70.4 BHP when running on CNG. The engine will be paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox.

The Dzire Tour S CNG will compete against the recently launched Mahindra KUV100 Trip which is also available in bi-fuel (petrol & CNG) and diesel engine options.
