Maruti Suzuki’s all-new Swift is all set for the India premier at Auto Expo 2018. The Swift, which continues to feature among the top five best selling cars in India for over a decade, now comes with a brand new design. The new Swift is built on the innovative 5th generation HEARTECT platform. The all-new Swift is 40 mm wider, and gets a 20mm longer wheel base allowing more cabin space, headroom as well as luggage space. The luggage space increases by 58 litres, around 28% more than the second generation Swift.
The pre-launch bookings have commenced from January 18, 2018. The all-new Swift can be booked with an initial payment of INR 11,000.
The new front grille design — single-aperture, is complemented with floating roof and accentuated by wrap around windows. The boldness of the car is demonstrated by wrap around windshield with unified DLO (day light opening) graphic and vertically sweeping lamps. LED projector headlamps with a signature LED DRL design, coupled with precision cut two-tone alloy wheels, provide a distinct road presence to the hatchback.
The cockpit design of the interior is enhanced by driver-side tilted HMI (human-machine interface) controls. The interiors are tastefully coordinated with urbane satin chrome finish on the instrument panel, steering, doors and speedometer rings. The flat bottom steering wheel, a new addition on the hatchback, augments the sporty appeal of the interiors.
Moreover, the new Swift comes with a future-ready SmartPlay Infotainment System, which is compatible with Apple Car Play, Android Auto and Mirror Link. Other features include in-built Voice Recognition with Indian accent English, Bluetooth audio streaming and navigation, and reverse parking camera display.
On safety, the all-new Swift embodies Suzuki’s Total Effective Control Technology (TECT) for occupant protection and complies with frontal offset and side impact regulations and meets advanced regulations for pedestrian safety. Dual airbags and ABS with EBD and ISOFIX (child seat restraint system) are standard.
Mechanically, the all-new Swift will be available with the K12 VVT engine and DDiS 190 engine. The all-new Swift will now be available with Maruti Suzuki’s acclaimed Auto Gear Shift (AGS) technology in both petrol and diesel trims.
