The Maruti Suzuki Swift is a compact 5-seater hatchback and one of India’s most popular, mostly because it’s light, easy to drive and cheap to run. The current fourth-generation swift launched in India on 9 May 2024, uses a 1.2-litre petrol engine (there’s a CNG option too) and starts at roughly ₹5.8 lakh ex-showroom, going up to around ₹9.5 lakh. Photos tell you more about a car than a spec sheet ever will, so before you shortlist a Swift it helps to actually see one properly. This gallery covers the current Maruti Suzuki Swift from the inside out.

The new Swift still reads as a Swift the moment you see it, but look a little closer and almost every panel has been reworked. It’s 3,860 mm long, 1,735 mm wide and 1,520 mm tall, with a 2,450 mm wheelbase, so it stays easy to place in traffic and slot into tight parking spots.
Front:
The front looks more grown-up than the older car. There’s a slim gloss-black grille flanked by LED projector headlamps, and the C-shaped LED daytime running lamps are usually the first thing people notice. The bonnet and the wide lower air dam give it a planted stance.
Side profile:
The side is where the Swift stays most familiar. The car has the rising window line, the rear door handles hidden up in the C-pillar, and the floating-roof look, all carried over and cleaned up. Higher variants ride on 15-inch dual-tone alloys, while lower ones make do with wheel covers. A single crease along the doors keeps the surface from looking flat.
Rear:
The biggest changes are in the rear, and it’s the angle that’s grown on people the most. The tail lamps are slimmer and wrap around the corners, the tailgate sits more upright, and the body-coloured bumper has a subtle diffuser-style section low down. It makes the car look wider and more sure of itself than before.

Open the door and the Swift feels practical rather than plush, which is honestly what most people want from a car like this.
Dashboard and layout:
The dashboard is all-black and laid out horizontally, with the touchscreen sitting up on top rather than sunk into the console. The top ZXi+ gets a 9-inch SmartPlay Pro+ screen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and lower trims get a 7-inch unit. Audio is handled by an Arkamys-tuned setup Maruti calls Surround Sense.
Front and rear seats:
The front seats hold you in reasonably well, and the flat-bottom, leather-wrapped steering wheel is nice to hold. There’s enough room in the back for two adults on a normal drive, helped by the fairly tall roof.
Legroom and boot space:
Boot space is 265 litres, which is fine for a weekly grocery run or a couple of soft bags, and the rear seats fold down when you need more. The fuel tank holds 37 litres.
Key touchpoints:
Worth a closer look are the semi-digital instrument cluster with its colour info display, the automatic climate control on higher trims, the wireless charging pad, cruise control on the ZXi+, and the steering-mounted buttons. One thing to note is that there’s no sunroof on any Swift variant.

Maruti Suzuki Swift Colour Variants
A Swift has been offered in a fair range of shades over the years. So what you’ll actually find on Spinny depends on the model year and the specific car in front of you. The current line-up runs to a handful of single-tone colours plus a few dual-tone options with a contrasting black roof. Neutrals like white, silver and grey tend to be the most common and the easiest to live with, while reds, blues and oranges have more presence, but which one feels right really comes down to your own taste.

Maruti Suzuki Swift Variants and Alternatives
The range goes from the base LXi up through VXi and VXi(O) to ZXi and the top ZXi+, with AMT and CNG versions mixed in. If you want the LED lamps, the 9-inch screen and the alloys shown here, look at the ZXi and ZXi+.
In the same segment, it’s worth also looking at the Hyundai Grand i10 Nios, the Tata Tiago and the Toyota Glanza.
Summary
The Swift has always been an easy car to like, and this generation just polishes that up with a sharper, more grown-up look inside and out. If these photos have helped you land on a variant and colour, the next step is simple. On Spinny, used ones sell for quite a bit less. Every Swift on Spinny is put through a 200-point inspection and backed by a 5-day money-back option and a 1-year warranty, so you’re never locked into an Impulsive choice. Found the one you like?
