Maruti Suzuki launched the updated Swift last week at a starting price of Rs 5.73 lakh (ex-showroom). Now, dealerships across the country have commenced with the deliveries of the new Swift. The new model is offered in five trims – Lxi, VXi, ZXi, ZXi+, and ZXi+ dual tone.

The 2021 Swift gets a revised front fascia boasting a mesh-type single-piece grille with a horizontal chrome bar at the centre. The top-spec ZXi+ trim can be had with two-tone exterior shades - Pearl Arctic White and Solid Fire Red with Pearl Midnight Black roof, and Midnight Blue with Arctic White roof. Other exterior elements remain the same with LED projector headlights with LED DRLs, 15-inch alloy wheels, raised rear door handles, and a floating roof-type effect.

On the inside, the top-spec ZXi+ trim now gets a coloured 4.2-inch information display, a cruise control, and an idle start/stop feature. The ORVMs are now key synchronised and can be auto-folded with the lock / unlock command. The Swift continues with a decent set of safety equipment such as dual front airbags, ISOFIX anchorage points, ABS with EBD, reverse parking camera, and driver and co-driver seatbelt reminder.
