2018 Maruti Swift Launched, Priced From Rs. 4.99 Lakhs

The 2018 Maruti Swift has been launched in India at a starting price of Rs. 4.99 lakhs.

When it comes to hatchbacks, there’s no denying that Maruti Suzuki has its hand on the market’s nerve. It was no longer a secret that the third-gen Swift was coming but the Japanese carmaker has now officially launched the same at the 2018 Auto Expo. With this, numerous pricing speculations have also been put to rest. The 2018 Maruti Swift price starts at Rs. 4.99 lakhs for the LXi variant and goes up to Rs. 8.29 lakhs for the range-topping ZDi+. (Both prices ex-showroom, Delhi)

After successfully establishing itself in the premium car segment, the company has come well-prepared to rival the B-segment hatchbacks including the Hyundai Grand i10 and Ford Figo. Not only is the new Swift thoroughly revised, it also sits on a lighter HEARTECT platform shared with the Baleno and Dzire and gets a design similar to the model sold in global markets. Prominent exterior highlights include projector headlamps, precision-cut alloy wheels, floating roof design, LED tail lamps and repositioned rear door handles.

On the inside, the 2018 Swift witnesses a vast improvement in terms of interior layout, part quality and overall space. Apart from thoughtful silver and chrome accents, the cabin is adorned by a flat-bottom steering wheel wrapped in leather and a SmartPlay touchscreen infotainment unit that supports MirrorLink, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. The hatchback is not behind in terms of features and comes with automatic headlamps, smart key, automatic climate control and steering mounted controls among many others.

Dual airbags, ABS with EBD and brake assist are standard across the range. Powered by the same set of 1.2-litre petrol and 1.3-litre diesel engines, the Swift comes mated to a 5-speed manual transmission by default and offers an improved 5-speed AMT (AGS) on mid-variants. The petrol engine develops 81.8 BHP of power and 113 Nm of torque while the diesel mill is good for 74 BHP of power and 190 Nm of torque. The Swift is offered in 6 colours – Silky Silver, Magma Grey, Solid Fire Red, Midnight Blue, Pearl Arctic White and Prime Lucent Orange.
