New Swift Design

At first glance, the new Swift looks more like an updated iteration of the outgoing model than a generation update, but it’s not a bad thing. It’s the small yet effective upgrades such as the revised headlight clusters and the redesigned grille that add to its fresh appearance.

Other cosmetic tweaks include refreshed bumpers, tweaked LED taillights (with new internal lighting elements), and freshly styled dual-tone alloy wheels. The India-spec fourth-gen Swift gets small design changes over the UK-spec and Japan-spec models thanks to the LED front fog lamps and a mildly revised grille, respectively.

What’s Changed On The Inside?

Changes on the inside are focussed around the dashboard, as it now features a larger touchscreen system, tweaked central AC vents, and an updated climate control panel. These changes make it more similar to the dashboard of the new Maruti Baleno. 

It’s from the driver side of the cabin that you notice the similarities with the cabin of the outgoing model the most, thanks to the same 3-spoke steering wheel and dual-pod analogue instrument cluster (housing a coloured TFT MID in the centre).

More Features And Safety Tech On Board

Its safety net now comprises six airbags (as standard), an electronic stability programme (ESP), a rear parking camera, and ISOFIX child seat anchorages.
