The Swift and the new Dzire have the same dashboard layout. However, the latter has a dual-tone black and beige cabin theme with imitation wooden accents on the dashboard, in contrast to the former's black interior. The push-button engine start stays in the same spot, while the 9-inch touchscreen infotainment system is now situated over the front AC vents.
