Suzuki Philippines made a strong mark at the 2025 Manila International Auto Show (MIAS) held from April 10 to 13 with the launch of the all-new Suzuki Dzire Hybrid, a stylish and smart compact sedan now equipped with Suzuki’s hybrid system.
“We are proud to unveil the All-New Dzire Hybrid—a vehicle designed to give every Filipino a stylish yet practical driving experience. With advanced features, hybrid efficiency, and premium styling, it redefines what a compact sedan can be,” said Suzuki Philippines Director and General Manager for Automobile Division, Norihide Takei.
He also emphasized Suzuki’s continuing efforts to offer innovative, fuel-efficient vehicles tailored for the Filipino market.
The all-new Dzire Hybrid showcases a more refined exterior with a redesigned front fascia, chrome-accented grille, and multi-light LED headlamps. Its sleek silhouette and sculpted body lines flow seamlessly into its new rear combination lamps, giving it a bold and elegant presence on the road.

ENGINE AND SAFETY FEATURES
Under the hood is Suzuki’s new 1.2-liter Z12E 3-cylinder gasoline engine paired with a hybrid system and a continuously variable transmission (CVT). This setup enhances both driving performance and fuel efficiency, while the hybrid system enables energy-saving features like auto start-stop and electric motor assist.
Drivers can expect smoother acceleration and quieter operation—ideal for both city and highway drives.
Safety remains a top priority with the all-new Dzire Hybrid, with six airbags now standard across all variants—including front, side, and curtain airbags for comprehensive occupant protection.
The other safety features include electronic stability program (ESP), anti-lock braking system (ABS) with electronic brakeforce distribution (EBD), hill hold control, and rear parking sensors with a camera. Combined with its reinforced body structure, these advanced safety features have earned the Dzire a prestigious 5-Star Global NCAP Safety Rating for Adult Occupancy, offering confidence and peace of mind on every drive.
The all-new Dzire Hybrid will be available nationwide at all Suzuki dealerships by the end of the month, with prices set at P920,000 for the GL CVT Hybrid and P998,000 for the GLX CVT Hybrid.
