Gearbox Type: 5-Speed Manual / 5-Speed AMT (AGS)
The Dzire offers a choice between a 5-speed Manual and a 5-speed Auto Gear Shift (AGS). The AGS system has been refined in this generation to reduce the "shift-shock" typically associated with AMTs, providing a more seamless transition between gears.
Drive Type: FWD (Front Wheel Drive)
As a compact sedan, the Dzire remains a Front-Wheel Drive (FWD) vehicle. This layout is chosen to keep the car lightweight (approx. 920–960 kg), which is a major factor in its class-leading fuel efficiency.
