The hatchback will be available in five trims - LXi, VXi, ZXi, ZXi+, and a newly introduced ZXi+ dual tone. The three dual-tone options include – Midnight Blue with Arctic White roof and Pearl Arctic White and Solid Fire Red with Pearl Midnight Black roof.

      The talking point of the Swift is a brand new engine in the form of K12 series Dual Jet Dual VVT engine with idle start-stop function. Simply put, the same 1.2-litre engine will now return a higher fuel efficiency of 23.20 kmpl in manual transmission and 23.76 kmpl when paired with the AMT gearbox. The power figures have also bumped by 7bhp to 89bhp and 113Nm of torque.
