34.3 km/kg. Start there, because that claimed CNG figure is the best in its band, 76% above the sedan segment's median economy, and the single biggest reason the Dzire Tour S dominates airport queues and cab stands. Priced ₹6.24-7.1 lakh across just two variants — petrol and CNG, both 5-speed manual — this is the fleet edition of India's best-selling sedan, running the newer Z12E 1.2-litre engine: 81 PS/112 Nm on petrol with a claimed 26.06 kmpl, 70 PS/102 Nm on CNG.

The buyer is the full-time operator, and every spec decision reads that way. The 3,995 mm three-box body carries a 382-litre boot that still takes airport luggage with the CNG tank fitted, the 920 kg kerb weight helps the economy case, and the equipment list covers working essentials — rear parking sensors, keyless entry, central console armrest, idle start-stop, projector headlamps — while skipping everything that does not pay rent. Fourth-cheapest among the country's sedans, it under-prices most of what it out-earns.
| Variant | Fuel | Transmission | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| STD | Petrol | 5-Speed Manual | ₹6.24 Lakh |
| CNG | CNG | 5-Speed Manual | ₹7.1 Lakh |

For commercial duty this is the simplest recommendation in the sedan class: buy the CNG variant. The petrol Tour S exists for CNG-scarce routes and little else. The 34.3 km/kg claim, the surviving 382-litre boot and Maruti's service ubiquity form the strongest per-km business case any sedan currently offers, and the ₹7.1 lakh CNG sticker recovers its premium over petrol within months at cab mileage.
34.3 km/kg — the best figure in its band and 76% above the sedan segment's median economy. The petrol claims 26.06 kmpl.
Same 3,995 mm sedan body and Z12E engine family, but pared to two fleet-spec manual variants aimed at commercial registration, without the private car's comfort features.
₹6.24 lakh for the petrol and up to ₹7.1 lakh for the CNG, with just two variants in the range.
The rated boot is 382 litres; with the cylinder in place there remains genuine space for airport-run luggage — a key reason cabs standardise on this car.
For city and airport duty, yes — it is tuned for economy and durability. Fully loaded highway overtakes need planning, which working drivers already know.
No, both variants are 5-speed manuals. If you need a CNG automatic in this class, the Tata Tigor's CNG AMT is the alternative.
