Japanese auto giant Suzuki Motor has revealed the upcoming Swift hatchback, one of the best-selling models from Maruti Suzuki in India, at the Japan Auto Show earlier this week. The new Swift, now in its fourth generation, is expected to be launched sometime later this year. However, India may have to wait until next year to see the hatchback hit the roads.
Suzuki said the Swift model showcased at the Japan Auto Show is conceptual in form. However, it appeared be production-ready when unveiled at the event. The popular hatchback retains its overall stance. However, several exterior features, like the headlights and bumpers, have been tweaked to make it appear sportier than before. The new Swift is wrapped in a shade of blue and had a blacked-out roof.

From the sides, one of the key change noticeable is the placement of the rear door handles. They have now been positioned at the more conventional place under the window sill. At the rear, the new Swift is expected to get the same set of taillights, though the bumper is likely to be redesigned like the one on the concept version.
