Being the base model, it gets the steel wheels without covers which obviously doesn't look very pleasing to the eye. What it does get is an idle start-stop function, engine immobiliser, manual AC controls, remote fuel lid opener, roof antenna, IsoFix with child seat anchorage, LED high mounted stop lamp, body-colored bumpers, gearshift indicator, door ajar warning lamp and more.

Goes without saying, it also gets dual front airbags, ABS with EBD and more such mandetiry safety features. Apart from the case LXi trim, the car also comes in the higher VXi, ZXi, ZSi+ and ZXi+ dual-tone variants.

Under the hood, it gets a more powerful 1.2-litre dual-jet naturally-aspirated K12N engine. The same powertrain is also found on the Dzire compact sedan. This engine is known to deliver 90 PS of maximum power and 113 Nm of peak torque. The transmission option includes a 5-speed manual gearbox. The higher trims also get optional 5-speed AMT on offer as well.

The 2021 Swift is claimed to offer a fuel efficiency of 23.20 kmpl for the petrol-MT variant and 23.76 kmpl for the AMT option (Read more details here).
