The engines are mated to a five-speed manual transmission. Maruti could also offer the option of CVT automatic gearbox due to its popularity.

The new Swift will also contain almost same bumper from present Swift Dzire and it looks really well with black cladding on the lower part. The new Swift also has little sunken fog lamps and are marvelous.

Talking about the side profile and you’ve got some usual Swift styles, like its roof which slightly tapers towards the rear. And for the first time, Maruti offers the back door handle in the C-pillar like we’ve seen in Chevrolet Beat, which looks cool and gives the new Swift a sporty look. The C-pillar consist of a black bit which separates the roof from the pillar. The upcoming Swift will have the following dimensions 3840mm*1735mm*1495mm (i.e., length, width and height).

The back view of new Swift is quite attractive, with an integrated spoiler on the top. Its tail lights are little bit squarish like we’ve seen in Ignis and give the new Swift a muscular and sporty look. The back side of the new Swift looks squarer in comparison to the curvy back of 2nd generation Swift.
Swift 2018 INTERIORS
The Swift inherits its interior design from the Ignis. There’s a stylish and somewhat funky rotary area in the center for climate control. There’s also a stylish tablet (with both android auto and apple car play) which forms the infotainment system. It has round AC vents and flat-bottomed steering wheel with the Suzuki logo in the middle.
The instrument cluster is very clear and comes with TFT display like we seen in Baleno and Ignis and gives you all the required information. The dashboard will be simple, hard and shiny. The visibility of the new Swift is very good even for short height drivers. The Cabin is spacious and has large door pockets with cubbyhole. Space is good and the seats are better than that with a bit of more bolstering all around and offer a lot of under-thigh support.
The back seat opens up a surprising amount of space. There’s a lot of legroom with a lot of headroom as well. Although the width has been increased by approx. 40mm but sitting three adults at a time will be a bit tight.
The big surprise is the boot, it is almost 25% bigger than the previous one, which is a plus point for the new Swift.

Swift with its new design is much lighter as compared to previous versions, this helps the vehicle to attain stability and generate more power. The new sleek body provides superb handling and proficient suspension.
