The  Swift had launched as a strategic model in 2004.The car won accolades for its performance and design and won a lot of hearts as well. The car is getting a complete make-over and the new Swift which has been launched in India .
The all new Swift is wider than its earlier version and though its longer, it is under the 4m bar. The wheel base too increases to 50 mm. The space in the interior of the car has certainly increased and the car is taller as well; so expect more leg room and head room. The front end is designed like the Kizashi, with larger headlamps that extend to the lower air dams.
The exact power figure for the petrol is 85.8 bhp @ 6000 RPM and a torque figure of 11.5 kgm @ 4000 RPM. The body rigidity has been worked up and is now better than the outgoing model. A new fuel consumption tripmeter and new dials make the Swift instrument cluster one of the best looking ones in its class.
The Variable Valve Timing (VVT) has helped the original K12 motor gain 2 bhp in peak power along with better effiency figures.
Like the SX4 diesel, the Swift comes with detent pin tech for the gearbox and this has made it smoother shifting than most.The lightweight polymer fuel tank has helped reduce kerb weight by 6 kg, while the car has seen an overall drop by up to 30 kg.

The diesel powered car comes with the tried and tested 1.3-litre DDis motor that puts out 75 PS and makes 19.2 kgm of torque. ARAI testing of the diesel Swift resulted in a fuel efficiency figure of 22.9 kpl.
The New Swift also has a few more creature comforts thrown in. In terms of rear seat comfort, passengers will be happy to know that there is more leg room on offer - 28 mm more, to be precise. The car also comes with new interiors and an integrated audio system on the ZXi and ZDi variants. The car also comes with a new multi-info trip.
