The all-new Maruti Suzuki Swift, which sold over 35,000 units since its launch in under two months, currently has a waiting period of as long as three weeks from the date of booking in India. The revised hatch went on sale here in May, with prices ranging between Rs 6.49 lakh and Rs 9.64 lakh (both, ex-showroom). It has five variants – LXi, VXi, VXi (O) ZXi, and ZXi+, and multiple exterior colour options. Design-wise, the new iteration is a quintessential Swift, with some notable exterior and interior upgrades such as LED projector headlamps, LED DRLs, a shiny black grille, diamond-cut alloy wheels, LED fog lights, a 9-inch SmartPlay Pro+ touchscreen, and cruise control. It retains the 2,450mm wheelbase, but is now 15mm longer, 40mm thinner, and 30mm taller than its predecessor. Let's look at other details of Maruti Suzuki's popular hatch.
