Commenting on the occasion, Partho Banerjee, Senior Executive Officer, Marketing & Sales, Maruti Suzuki India Limited, said, “The Swift has been more than just a car to the millions who have owned it – it has been a symbol of fun, freedom and exhilaration. With each new generation, the Swift has continued to raise the bar, offering cutting-edge technology, contemporary style, and that unmistakable 'Swift DNA' which continues to captivate customers. This accomplishment fills us with immense gratitude, and we are thankful to all Swift owners across the country.”


Maruti Suzuki will soon introduce a CNG derivative of the Swift in India. The new version is expected to retain the same 1197 cc, three-cylinder motor as the current model, but with a lower power output. For reference, the current version makes 80.4 bhp @ 5700 rpm and 111.7 Nm of peak torque. Expect it to solely be offered with a manual gearbox.
