Swift is one of the important products for Maruti Suzuki because of how successful it has been in the Indian market despite the craze of SUVs that’s been roaring up. The brand recently launched the fourth generation of the Swift in India and it comes with several changes over the third generation Swift. There are changes to the exterior, interior, engine and even the features. Here are five things that one should know about the 2024 Swift.

What Maruti Suzuki has done is retained the overall silhouette of the Swift because of how iconic it has become. But there are several changes. For starters, in the front, there is a new set of blacked-out headlamps with L-shaped LED Daytime Running Lamps and a projector setup. There is a new grille and the brand is even offering fog lamps which they are not doing in a few global markets. On the sides, there is a new set of alloy wheels and the door handles are positioned on the rear doors once again.
2024 Maruti Suzuki Swift: Cabin changes
Maruti Suzuki is trying to streamline the cabin experience throughout their vehicles. The dashboard layout of the Swift is very similar to the one found on the Baleno. There is a new analogue instrument cluster in place but the MID is still the same. The climate control is also taken from other new Maruti vehicles. However, Maruti Suzuki has added a wireless charger, a 9-inch touchscreen infotainment system and a heads-up display.
