About the Maruti Suzuki Swift

India's iconic sporty hatchback — now in its fourth generation with a frugal new 3-cylinder Z-Series petrol and a factory CNG option.

The Maruti Suzuki Swift is one of India's best-loved hatchbacks, a perennial best-seller that pairs a fun-to-drive character with Maruti's hallmark low running costs. The current fourth-generation car is built on the lightweight HEARTECT platform and is powered by a new 1.2-litre 3-cylinder Z12E petrol engine producing about 80 bhp, paired with a 5-speed manual or a 5-speed AMT automatic.

The Swift remains a masterclass in maximizing value in the compact hatchback segment. It pairs excellent fuel efficiency, intuitive tech features, and a practical 265-liter boot with an agile 80 bhp engine that's more than adequate for city driving. However, comfort features lag and safety tech could be more comprehensive for the price.

Stands out

  • Outstanding 32.85 km/l fuel efficiency keeps running costs low
  • Responsive 80 bhp engine with 111.7 Nm torque handles city traffic effortlessly
  • Strong tech suite with 6 features including infotainment and connectivity
  • Standard 6 airbags provide solid crash protection
  • Excellent value proposition at ₹5.79 lakh base price

!Gives us pause

  • 265-liter boot is tight for families with luggage
  • No ADAS features; safety relies entirely on passive systems
  • Limited comfort with no ventilated seats or sunroof
  • Engine feels underpowered on highways with full load
