Maruti Suzuki Swift AMT Launched In Top Variants
Highlights
- The Maruti Suzuki Swift's ZXI+ and ZDI+ trims now get automatic option
- Only the VXI, ZXI, VDI & ZDI variants came with AGS at the time of launch
- Features and engine options remain unchanged
Maruti Suzuki Swift AMT, equipped with the company's auto gear shift (AGS) system, is now also available with the top-end variants. Priced at Rs. 7.76 lakh for the ZXI+ trim and Rs. 8.76 lakh for the ZDI+ variant (both ex-showroom, Delhi), the Maruti Swift automatic is available in both petrol and diesel formats. The third-generation Maruti Suzuki Swift was launched in India at the Auto Expo, early this year in February and at the time of the launch, the Maruti Swift AMT system was only offered with the VXI, ZXI, VDI and ZDI variants.
Maruti Suzuki used this same strategy with the Ignis as well. Back then also the company launched the automatic option for the top-end variants of the Ignis, a few months after the actual launch. This also allows the carmaker to keep the buzz alive for a longer time.
