Maruti Suzuki India is all set to launch the much-anticipated next-generation Maruti Suzuki Swift in the Indian market on May 9, 2024. The bookings for the new Swift are underway, interested customers can book it online or by visiting their nearest dealership. The booking amount is set at Rs 11,000 and deliveries are expected to begin from June 2024.

Ahead of its official launch, the hatch has been spotted undisguised at a Maruti Suzuki dealership, allowing us to take a clear and cluster look at the India-spec hatch. The India-spec model looks more or less the same but here it gets differently designed alloy wheels. Other exterior highlights include a re-designed front bumper and a new grille with chunky black surrounds and it also features re-designed smoked LED headlamps with DRLs. Below it gets the revised fog lamp housing with a splitter.

The door handles for the rear doors are back to their conventional location, instead of on the C-pillar. At the rear, it gets a re-designed tailgate and a new bumper with a skid plate below. Other highlights include an integrated rear spoiler with a stop lamp, LED taillights with C-shaped DRLs and reflectors below.

Moving inside, the interior of the new Swift takes inspiration from Baleno and Fronx. It gets a new dashboard layout with a floating infotainment system with sleek AC vents and HVAC controls below. Other expected features include wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, connected car tech, steering-mounted controls, automatic climate controls and other convenience features.

The biggest change on the new Swift is on the powertrain front. The new Swift is expected to be powered by an all-new 1.2-litre, three-cylinder, naturally aspirated petrol engine that’ll replace the existing K12 four-cylinder engine. Detailed specifications haven’t been revealed yet but it’s expected to have more than 85 hp of Power and 110 nm torque. Gearbox options will include a 5-speed manual or an AMT.
