In terms of performance, the Z Series 3-cylinder powertrain churns out 81 bhp and 112 Nm of torque, slightly lower than the outgoing K Series 4-cylinder engine, which produces 89 bhp and 113 Nm of torque. This translates to a marginal reduction of 8 bhp and 1 Nm in power output.
Apart from the revamped engine, the 2024 Swift comes loaded with an array of features aimed at enhancing the driving experience. These include a 9-inch infotainment system, Arkamys sound system, USB-C charging ports, rear air conditioning vents, and a wireless phone charger. Furthermore, top trims of the new Swift are expected to feature LED fog lamps, adding to both style and functionality.
In terms of safety, Maruti Suzuki has upped the ante with the 2024 Swift, offering standard six airbags across all variants. This is a significant improvement over the previous model, which was equipped with only twin airbags, underscoring the company's commitment to enhancing passenger safety.
With its upgraded engine, enhanced features, and improved safety standards, the 2024 Maruti Suzuki Swift is poised to set new benchmarks in the hatchback segment, offering consumers a compelling blend of performance, efficiency, and comfort.
