Maruti Suzuki Dzire Tour S — Price & Specs for Taxi Use
India's default app-cab. The Tour S is the factory taxi trim of the Dzire — cheaper than the private car, built for 300 km days.
The Dzire Tour S is Maruti's commercial-segment Dzire, sold through the Maruti Commercial channel rather than Arena. It costs noticeably less than the private Dzire because it drops the cosmetic kit, and the factory S-CNG version returns a certified 34.3 km/kg — the reason it dominates Ola and Uber fleets in every metro.

What it actually costs on the road with a T-permit
Commercial (yellow plate) registration is not the same as private. Road tax is charged on a different slab, and you also pay for the permit, fitness certificate and commercial insurance. As a working figure, budget ₹7.04 L – ₹8.60 L on-road for Maruti Suzuki Dzire Tour S with commercial registration in Delhi NCR. Rates differ by state and permit type, so always ask the dealer for a written commercial quote — the private on-road price they show first is not what you will pay.

Finance on a New Dzire Tour S
New commercial vehicles finance more easily than used ones. For Maruti Suzuki Dzire Tour S, banks and NBFCs typically fund 80–90% of the ex-showroom price over a 3–5 year term, provided you hold a valid permit and can show income. Rates on new commercial vehicles run below used-vehicle rates because the asset is fresh collateral.
- Manufacturer finance arms (Maruti Suzuki dealers) usually quote fastest, but not always cheapest.
- Your existing bank will often better a dealer quote if you already run an account with them.
- Get the commercial on-road figure in writing before you compare EMIs; dealers often quote the private one.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the on-road price of a Maruti Dzire Tour S with commercial registration in Delhi?
The Dzire Tour S S-CNG is ₹7,16,843 ex-showroom. With commercial (yellow plate) registration in Delhi, expect roughly ₹8.1–8.6 lakh on-road once road tax, commercial insurance, fitness certificate and permit charges are added. Commercial road tax is calculated differently from private registration, so ask the dealer for a written commercial quote rather than assuming the private on-road figure.
How is the Dzire Tour S different from the regular Maruti Dzire?
The Tour S is sold through Maruti Commercial outlets and is built for taxi duty: lower price, simplified trim, speed limiter, and a factory S-CNG option. The regular Dzire sold at Arena dealerships is the private-buyer car with the sunroof, alloys and touchscreen. For T-permit use the Tour S is the correct purchase — buying a private Dzire and converting it costs more and takes longer.
What real mileage does a Dzire Tour S CNG give in taxi use?
ARAI certifies 34.3 km/kg. In commercial city duty with AC on, passengers aboard and traffic idling, operators consistently report 26–29 km/kg. At Delhi CNG rates that puts fuel cost around ₹2.6–2.9 per kilometre.
Can I get finance on a new Dzire Tour S for taxi use?
Yes. Commercial vehicle loans for a new Dzire Tour S are offered by most banks and NBFCs, typically at 80–90% loan-to-value for a first-time buyer with a permit, over 3–5 years. Rates for new commercial vehicles run lower than for used ones. Maruti Commercial dealers also run their own tie-ups — worth comparing against your own bank before signing.
Is the Dzire Tour S approved for Ola and Uber?
Yes, in every city where those platforms operate. With a commercial yellow-plate RC and a valid city taxi permit it qualifies for UberGo, Uber Premier, Ola Mini and Ola Prime Sedan. The factory CNG certification satisfies the aggregator fitness checks without the extra paperwork an aftermarket kit triggers.

Or Buy a Used Dzire Instead
A used Dzire with a commercial RC already in place skips the registration and permit process entirely — and costs a fraction of new.
