Maruti Suzuki launched the fourth generation of the Swift hatchback (2024 Maruti Swift) in the domestic market on May 9th. The new-gen Swift is making a splash in the Indian market. In August 2024, the company sold 12,844 units of the Swift. Seeing the popularity of the new Swift, Maruti is now gearing up to launch its CNG variant.
According to the Autocar website, the CNG variant of the new-gen Swift is expected to launch in the second week of September. However, Maruti Suzuki has not yet provided official information regarding the launch. Meanwhile, let's take a look at the key features of the 2024 Maruti Swift.
Price
The petrol variant of the 2024 Maruti Swift is priced between ₹6.49 lakh and ₹9.59 lakh (ex-showroom). As for the CNG version, it is expected to start at around ₹7.50 lakh.
According to reports, the CNG variant of the 2024 Maruti Swift will offer a mileage of approximately 30 km/kg. The new Swift is available in LXI, VXI, VXI (O), ZXI, and ZXI Plus variants. It comes in colors like Sizzling Red, Pearl Arctic White, Magma Grey, and Noval Orange.
Powertrain
The new 2024 Maruti Swift hatchback is powered by a 1.2-liter, 3-cylinder Z-Series petrol engine. This engine is capable of producing 80PS of power and 112Nm of peak torque. It comes with the option of a 5-speed manual and a 5-speed automatic gearbox.
It is expected that the CNG-powered model of the new Swift will also feature the Z-Series engine. However, it will generate less power and torque compared to the petrol model. Additionally, the Swift CNG variant will only be available with a manual gearbox.
Features
The CNG variant of the Maruti Suzuki Swift will have the same features as the regular models. These include a 9-inch infotainment system, auto climate control, a semi-digital instrument cluster, a wireless charger, and a USB Type-C port. However, due to the CNG cylinder, the boot space will be reduced.
Safety Features
For passenger safety, the new Maruti Swift is equipped with 6 airbags, ABS (Anti-lock Braking System), EBD (Electronic Brakeforce Distribution), TCS (Traction Control System), a seat belt reminder, and 3-point seat belts.
