The 2024 Maruti Suzuki Swift comes with a wide range of updates, visible on the exterior and inside the cabin, while the powertrain too has been upgraded significantly. The new Swift features a revamped front profile, while the side and rear profiles too have been updated. Inside the cabin, the new Swift gets new features in an attempt to become more appealing. On the powertrain, the hatchback received a new Z Series 1.2-litre three-cylinder petrol engine, which replaced the erstwhile K Series 1.2-litre four-cylinder motor. Transmission options for the car include a five-speed manual gearbox and a five-speed AMT, just like the third-generation model.
