Year 2118 (100 years from now)...."The new 2118 Swift comes with driverless control, self-parking, gel-based airbags, and so many thingmajigs, under the hood are the same 1.2L K12 Petrol and Fiat 1.3MJD engines from 115 years ago."
Epic... Buddy
btarunr you forgot the body of a coke can..
Lol...
It would be electric buddy
btarunr the k12 engine isnt event hat old. It is just 7 years old.
people criticize maruti..but actually buy maruti in the end
Gaurav Chauhan 😂😂😂✌
Mileage matters above quality
Gaurav Chauhan next
Thats 100% true.. Good resale value and milage is big concern for us..😁😁😁
True
I love the way Renuka presents it.
swift is a great car for ever... no one can beat swift... fun to drive swift... 👍👍👌👌
Ford cars are even more Fun to drive and have better safety.
🤣🤣 Joke of The century swift fun to drive
Swift sucks
Who never knew what really cars means drives maruti tin cans
*FIAT* Ford Vw cars are far way better than this tin
2nd generation swift falls in Ulta Legend category...That car still has unmatchable charm
In coming years 2nd generation swift gonna be cult model for sure....I have been riding 2nd gen swift from past 5 years.. Everyday I ride that gem,it gives me ultimate driving pleasure
They drove it for so long, why can't they mention fuel figures?? 🤔😒
Is it only me who thinks the 2nd gen swift looks the best?
Pramit Das me too
I have swift zdi .... as per me no car can beat the 2nd gen... the best car ever
Pramit Das *Yes you're the only one.*
Exactly
yes 2nd gen is king
There is no denying that this car does not compare in build and features to Hyundai, VW or Ford but the swift has been an amazing drivers car with the way it responds. Only Ford betters it in that respect because the others are just boring to drive...
As a proud ex-owner of a 2012 Swift ZDI, I feel very disappointed, I think they have diluted the spirit of the brand Swift. Common Maruti, you have so many good commuters in your lineup, you didn’t have to turn swift into a lame duck. You did this to brand ZEN and now to the Swift, In my personal view the car looks weird from all angles, and why mess with the door handles? I hope Swift gets back it mojo in the next generation.
Your reviews are always worth watching. Best thing in new swift appears to be it's increase in internal space.
Very nice car with stuffed features. I have to driven this car from Chennai to Goa Via Bengaloru, Mangaluru to West cost road to Goa. No body pain, not feeling tired. I love SWIFT ZXI.
Back is like Suzuki A-star
Ketan Agarwal Datsun go.
As always a substandard manufacture quality for indian customers compared to the swift - made in japan.
A review is not a review unless Renuka Kriplani does it. 😀
🙌her charisma!!
The only dealbreaker for me in the swift 2018 is the awkward placement of the rear door handles.
Exactly if a small kids want to open it cannot and also people who are not generally aware that the door opener can be there upside on the window.....a big drawback for this car
Actually the second generation looked much better on the front headlamps and the 1st generation for the tail lamps. The 3rd iteration - Nah!!!
Jerome Ceaser exactly
TRUE
Yes
The front is a bit questionable bit on the rear, it is brilliant. You gotta see it to believe it, and in that Pearl blue colour, ❤. It's a different language to the previous one. The 2nd gen (which I have) is more curvy while this one is more boxy and practical n
But still people buy it
The glass area is pretty small in the rear though, but still, Swift is all set to conquer the hatchback segment again
I have swift 2nd generation and that car is undoubtedly fantastic..
Old is gold
Looks better and more aggressive
Same engine, same *TIN can quality* and a 15% improvement in the design. I don't get it, other brands like Hyundai and VW feel so solid and their wow factor is epic, the only good thing by getting a Suzuki is the After sales service. Keep in mind that If the owner is good and nice to his German/Korean car, they reward you with absolutely no troubles and may outlast their owner. They are more safe too compared to this tin can. It's 2018, it's not the time to be patriotic by buying Indian brands when they cost the same as much better rivals. Everyone is expecting more quality from Maruti, instead they are ripping peoples pockets by providing Patriotism and FIAT SOURCED reliable engines (Thanks to Fiat an Italian company -_-). All Maruti does is source metal and cheap plastics to make tin cans with new faces and sell them to proud feeling Indian's for the same price as a tank like VW and Hyundai cars. Grow up Maruti Suzuki. We want you to improve in the quality aspect and making NEXA doesn't make tin cans premium.....
Saketa Reddy Gopavaram excuse me maruti is no longer indian suzuki has 54% share in maruti it owns maruti all money goes to japan,its fooling true indian brands are tata and mahindra,and anyways dont drag tata into this its matching international competition coz new cars are developed with jaguar and landrover,very reliable and are hit too plus are much cheaper than competition.
So buy other brands why u want maruti to improve.
Saketa Reddy Gopavaram I saw this comment on autocar also. So are you a troll or a passionate about hating maruti? I am shocked about you imposing your opinion on others. Pretty sure you have army of trolls/secondary Accounts to support you
Maruti Suzuki is a Japanese brand..not Indian..it is a subsidary of Suzuki motors Japan..
Nice one bro.. i prefer hyundai too
The chasis and the body shell of the swift and the dzire are hollow from quite a no. of places in order to reduce weight and gain more mileage. Though the maruti might have made the chasis rigid but the the body shell is like made of very light alloy. If you hit it hard the panels tends to bend in. Compare that to a vw polo , ford figo or elite i20 for that matter the body structure is as solid as it gets. Please bear in mind that swift's are known to be rattle kings. On a personal note I feel that it is better to get a car that is safe and gives me 3-4 kmpl less mileage than a tin can.
Looking for really strong car, one should go for Punto, rest all others fail
No matter how bad a maruti car is indians will still buy it for resale value
Mumbai to Lonavala... while the number plate says Haryana :D
After endless issues from my Ciaz, I will not buy any Maruti in future.
Maruti should improve their build quality.
We don't need any tin cans
how is ciaz??
E Shock I was a hardcore Maruti Suzuki fan lately shifted to Honda am not complaining...For me Brezza was a big disappointment..
E Shock
E Shock what problems u face
How much ever people say bad about swift .this car has 3 to 4 month waiting before it has launched. Its best car and even u all are going to be in the line to buy it
Dont worry. Anything of maruti sells in india...
mohnishvids yup. Anything. Literally
An electric version should also be made
Maruthi has to improve the interior material quality
Now reanult and Tata is making good progress on the overall design and quality of material ....
Also same old engine need some add on.
for indian roads 162mm ground clearance is not enough. it will kiss most of the speed humps..
I dont know why the hell our Indians give more importance to looks of a car rather than safety, quality and reliability of a car???
Literally saw this cars rolling on the streets of lonavla !!!😱😱 !! Was thinking also how this car would roll out on the streets without getting selled!!!
ALREADY BOOKED THIS ONE 🤓✌
Ohh...So sorry of u..
Please include ignis vs swift comparison
Only two things were missing in 2nd Gen Swift: Projector headlamps n enough boot space. It was unnecessary to redesign entire car
The power train that will make you truly happy is the swift sport 1.4l 140hp engine.
Sporty look.. girly car..
Very stylish, great feature..
ignis is a very good car but because of Baleno and swift it is getting crushed the Ignis has the most peppiest engine and it goes as fast as 180 kmph .. i own an ignis and we tried and it reached 180 kmph...in case of mileage in city it gives around 20 and in highway 23...and it is cheaper...then why people don't buy ignis
Coz its ugliest in this segment.
coz its not value for money....2nd reason..
This new car is absolutely brilliant! Another winner from Maruti Suzuki!
Okay, now what is the sheet thickness of the body this time?
Any improvement in the build quality or same old stuff?
Anyway Maruthi knows that whatever they launch people buy it, people are only concerned about the features, mileage...more than safety!...Enjoy with the new Swift!
I feel maruti is offering better safety features in nexa cars! And they have a better build quality as well! Swift obviously doesn’t!
worlds best safest car!
tin swift
🤣
Say good about this car or bad about this car, at last this is going to be king of all hatchbacks
Love swift.
My dream car i loved it
maruti is now trying to make little minicooper😂😂 with tin cans
This got ugly, the 2nd gen was a good looking car. At this rate of weight reduction by Maruti, they will end up building a Nano by 2020.
this model scored 3 out of 5 stars at global ncap crash test, for india it will score lesser than 3 and lot of indians going to buy this, including me
Dissapointed by the dealers attitude i was supposed to take delivery of swift yesterday but now the dealer ia telling that the discount have been changed and he cannot give me the car if i dont take extra warranty as it been made mandatory by maruti from feb 2019 .
Is this true ?
I am from lucknow and dealer is in almabagh one up motors
Best hatchback SWIFT love 8t
Even me too 😍
New video from autocar india is love
What ever it is it's gonna rock the sales charts like other MS vehicle
Looks like a Datson Go from the rear lol
bala kiran but with even worst quality
New Hyundai i10 grand nios is best in segment because it has more leg room at the rear passenger seat, good looking interior, it as more features than the other cars in this segment, engine is quiet refined and smooth. It has exciting features like wireless charging first in the segment, rear AC vents and many more. It is also the best city car and stable in highways. Value for money package. Also high speed of Grand i10 nios is better than swift due good suspension setup and more kerb weight than the swift.
They should give rear wiper and defogger from vxi variants.
How would you compare this to the Baleno?
N there we have it, Ladies and Gentlemen, The car that will be selling 30K units a month for the next six months post its launch.
Also height reduced... Do they think all Indians have similar low height... Dzire has taken a hit in sales after the new dzire as per my observation and I believe this will go the same way...
I prefer polo and i20
Let that sink in..Car that costs twice as the new swift gets the same engine .. S cross... Maruti making Indians fool since 1985
it's sad that they stopped selling the 1.6L version in India.
we were planning to buy that, but went for the creta instead
Swift hybrid coming to India anytime soon!?
I wonder when will this version be available in the Philippines..
The rear is like Datsun redigo
Do a video on Lincoln Navigator concept car
Don't buy any Maruti blindly just because it costs less.. Compare, drive and then patiently make decision.. In the end if you like being safe and concerned about quality/comfort you'll never end up buying a Maruti
Akash Sharma It is not less cost dude, check out the top variant of swift petrol it is 8.52 lakhs which is more expensive than Hyundai grand i10.. what do u think? I own this car, and it is awesome
How does the suspension of swift 2018 compare with the current baleno ? Is it uncomfortably stiff like the baleno ??
The Baleno has softer suspension setup.
Should I buy the all new swift or the Baleno...??
Bit confused. Please help..!!
It should be renamed to Maruti suzuki Pepsi Coca cola TIN Can.😂😂
Will use it for uber ola for sure
#hyundai has its oomph factor in every car , attention to detail is at par from #MSL . Well again swift sells outside india is different from what we are getting here , Cost cutting , shiny plastics a MSL patent is again they just want to sell it by doing bedhchal and ofcourse there is no doubt #Baleno is still a better option or else go for Hyundai .
lagta hai maruti ke paas purane jamane ki gadiyon ke design bache hain...
Maruti is focusing only on sales figure and upgrading their products but when it come to after sales service they are beaten up by their rivals.
Techion huh
Techion maruti is the best in the after sales service
That is why maruti is so popular as the cars they manufacture is specifically for the roads in india
In india maruti and Hyundai are the strongest in after sales service
Rohan Kumar true
What about the Ground Clearance? Both of you haven't mentioned it......
Awesome renuks no one does it like u.. but lighter handling how bad is it?? And when can we see the crash results
Interior is very similar to old gen Ford Figo! They can't even design an interior!!
make first drive video on new elite i20
I love this one..but Swift top end variant is almost Price of baleno alpha...which is better
Are engine change krdo ab toh yaar...kb tk 1.3 ddis/1.2K12M. figo diesel will eat this car in lunch,dinner and breakfast.
ankiatir4850 bang this cheap car to an Bajaj Autorickshaw and see the results
swift sells more in a month than Figo in its whole life cycle. Have some perspective ...
who buys figo no one.
Ford's diesel is simply the best in the segment and sensible people go with Ford.
Do you have any idea about launching of Swift sport??
Automatic is available on Zxi/di but they reduced features. Why Maruti why? Automatic don’t have DRL, projector headlamp, Reverse camera, Touch Screen, Automatic climate control?
Looks dated..from back looks like toyota etios liva..front looks good..but still far behind hyundai's design language.even last gen elite i20 looks better than this..
Can any one suggest me between new swift and Tigor. Which one would be a better pick.
Why no one talks of safety in terms of NCAP rating and whats available in India ???
All hatchback & compact car also include cornering ABS.
Well said... an 'aged' fiat sourced diesal engine.
I am confused which colour is better for zxi+ ... White or silver ?
Much better design
Cerelio x top model ya swift base model kounsa sa lu .
Swift top model ka budget nahi hai . Please suggest
Which car has more mileage?
New Swift or New Dzire
Petrol version
Which car should I go for volkswagen ameo or new hyundai verna
Finally Ms Renuka, thank you.
When is the car getting ready for delivery?
Wow it’s gotten huge!
Once there was a car called renault pulse..now we got suzuki pulse..sorry suzuki swift..
I love swift
A star part 2
Renuka is the best host of Autocar
How is it possible find out in new engine car about vibration and other sounds coming.... Atleast it's takes 2...3 services for engine smoothness....This car going to be super hit....
i am confused which colour looks rich primium (blue.orange.red.grey) please replay me fast
good review and very helpful...
maruti still cannot makes its own diesel engine? forget the petrol..
So which one would be a better option baleno or the new swift , and is there any new updated version of baleno coming out any time soon? Like a facelift or anything?
Nithin Prasad baleno anytime (considering price too) 👍
The swift and dzire are not any modern compared to the baleno . The dzire still makes a point as ita has a better interior but , the 3rd gen swift has an even crappier interior . Maruti should learn a thing or two from hyundai on how to make cars with practicality and luxury side by side .
Nithin Prasad Baleno is much better. Without any doubt. It has a more practical cabin.
Nithin Prasad go for ignis its awesome cheaper peppier and more efficiency
