Swifter than ever


The Maruti Swift has always been considered to be one of the leading cars in the B segment of the Indian automobile industry. Born with immense power, masculine and sporty looks and plush interiors, it is a package which only a simpleton would deem imperfect. When you think of the Swift, the words which automatically come to mind are power, passion and performance.

August this year saw the launch of the revamped avatar of the Maruti Swift. Over thirty engineers from Suzuki and over a hundred engineers from Maruti burnt the midnight oil for months to give birth to the all new Maruti Swift 2011, which you now see. A lot of thought went into trying to perfect a car which was seen as the epitome of the hatchback segment.

Every aspect of the car; power, looks, comfort and of course safety were carefully and diligently improved. The results of these efforts are seen in the form of the all new Maruti Swift. The length of the new Swift has been increased from 3696mm to 3850mm and the width from 1690mm to 1695mm this basically spells out that the new Maruti Swift is bigger in comparison to its predecessor.

The wheelbase has been increased to make for superior handling. The sweptback extended headlights not only add to the style quotient of the car but also provide a much better light output and range. 185/65 R15 signature alloy wheels and the beautifully crafted wheel arches add to the athletic stance of the car.

Even the interiors of the new Swift are far superior, with an array of advanced features like the central waterfall console, and the digital sound processing (D.S.P) feature, which in accordance to your speed increases or reduces the volume of the music playing. The wrap-around silver accents add to the plush interiors and the feeling of awe while you’re sitting in the Swift. The usage of higher quality materials and superior ergonomics make one just want to sit in the Swift all day.

Maruti hasn’t forgotten to keep safety in mind, the Swift is loaded with features like Boost assist braking system (BAS), Dual SRS airbags, and a new generation ABS system make swift as safe as it is sporty.

 I’m sure, if asked prior to August, whether the Swift could get any better, everybody’s answer would be no! However Maruti Suzuki engineers have yet again worked their magic and created a car which would further add to the cult status of the Swift.
