When running on CNG, the new Swift’s 1.2-litre Z-series engine will produce a peak 69 bhp and 102 Nm of torque, which is slightly higher than before, but also notably lower than the petrol-only version’s 80.4 bhp and 112 Nm of torque. For now, the Swift S-CNG will only be available with the five-speed manual gearbox, as there is no automated manual transmission (AMT) option on offer.

 

Unlike the previous-generation Swift CNG, which was only available in two variants, the new Swift S-CNG is available in three trim levels. The most loaded S-CNG variant is the ZXI, which gets additional equipment over the VXI (O) variant, including LED headlights with daytime running lights, alloy wheels, automatic climate control, driver’s seat height adjust, two tweeters for the sound system, wireless phone charging, rear wash and wipe, auto headlights, rear AC vents, a 60:40 split rear seat with adjustable headrests and rear USB ports.
