re: All-New Maruti Suzuki Swift Spotted in India,now Launched!

Spotted vehicle is the Suzuki SWIFT HYBRID.

The Maruti Suzuki Swift hybrid will combine a 10kW electric motor generator and a 1.2-litre 91PS engine. It is mated to a 5-speed AMT. In the Japanese cycle, this 2-wheel drive model is claimed to deliver 32kmpl.Essentially the motor shuts off the internal combustion engine when it detects that the vehicle is coasting with a relatively lower road and in heavy traffic conditions. Suzuki also says that the Swift hybrid can travel a few kilometres on electric power only before needing assistance from the internal combustion engine.

[confused] why are they starting the production in 2017 when they want to launch the car in 2018, wont the 2017 models be considered as a year old model by the buyers?

It is the pre-production batch( limited quantity) that will commence in December. They could be used as promotional units , if they decide so.

Mass production and sale will happen only in 2018.

re: All-New Maruti Suzuki Swift Spotted in India,now Launched!

Looks awesome,I hope they give it good engines and good transmission options
Ive been disappointed by MSIL and Honda on this regard off late
Not that VW, Tata impressed me either in this regard but at least they are BS VI engines in their line ups for now

re: All-New Maruti Suzuki Swift Spotted in India,now Launched!

Suzuki to brings its entire Swift family to India! SWIFT SPORT with 1.4L Boosterjet engine to debut in India by end 2018/early 2019.

- Standard SWIFT - Petrol and Diesel - in both MT/AT Configuration - 2018
- Swift Sport - 1.4L boosterjet in MT variant - late 2018/19
- Swift Hybrid - 2019
- Swift Electric ( probably in 2020)

Word is that the Maruti Suzuki Swift will launch in India in its regular diesel and petrol avatars - though with an automatic option at go. But it will soon be followed up with first the Sport and then the hybrid
DRIVE - SWIFT SPORT

The car feels sporty from word go, and is a delight with its responsiveness and eager nature. The stiff suspension is also nice and direct, with good feedback and very impressive handling. The regular Swift is a sporty car to begin with, the short overhangs on the new gen, coupled with the lowered chassis and stiffer suspension on the Sport make for a very fun drive. Power is near instant, and the engine is very eager to perform and please! It gets good backing from the suspension and steering, and so you can throw this car about, and it reacts and responds with effortless ease. It will also pull out of a corner very quickly, and holds its line well. The manual gearbox is the perfect choice for tis car, and though mapped to hard driving, will still hold higher gears without the need for constant shifting even in the city.

Suzuki SWIFT HYBRID coming to India , reviewed by SVP,

The hybrid uses the same K-series petrol engine that we have been oh so used to. It puts out 86 bhp and is mated with a 10 kW electric motor. The gearbox is a 5 speed AMT and there are two variants - with and without paddle shift. Claimed mileage on the hybrid is 32 kmpl.

It feels like a regular car, it's got a little dynamic sporty appeal to it, which is great, as that's very Swift!
The Swift hybrid - like all hybrids - moves seamlessly from electric to petrol power. It is nice when the car glides along silently in pure EV mode, and there is an EV indicator light telling me that I was just using battery power alone, and the internal combustion engine is switched off. So of course it gets more efficient, and it is also a good way to get people to start to switch over to a greener concept of driving.

2018 SWIFT SPORT gets reviewed - All reviews have positive tones .

Forbes declares it thus:
The World's Best Driver's Car Under $18,000 Is A Suzuki

It looks cool and quick, is part sports car, part video game, devours corners, seats four adults comfortably, offers true street cred and anyone can afford one.
in terms of absolute bang-for-buck and sheer driving thrills, nothing can beat the all-new Suzuki Swift Sport.
The Swift Sport’s red-edged digital displays provide everything from fuel consumption to lateral acceleration, turbo boost and even acceleration and braking G-forces.
The stock Swift is a sharp-looking, well-proportioned hatch with prominent headlights and a powerful stance. The Swift Sport artfully lifts those aesthetics with 17-inch alloy wheels, a bolder nose and subtle spoilers, a roof spoiler and stainless steel exhaust tips
The Swift’s steering is direct, precise and nicely weighted and the suspension setup allows the car to stay flat as it resists body roll in tight corners. It turns in briskly with almost no understeer, jumps to 100 kph without effort and brakes with minimal nose dive and class-leading stability, all the while feeling like a precocious pitbull tempting you to play harder.
over its well-proportioned looks, perky turbo engine, brisk handling, sporty interior and extensive safety features in my brain. And the verdict is in – yep, this is the world’s best driver’s car for under $18,000.
