New-gen Maruti Swift Hybrid
The popular and iconic Maruti Swift will reportedly go for a transformation. Built on the same HEARTECT platform as the Baleno and Fronx, the upcoming Swift is expected to bring significant design changes, improved built quality, and some new features. Under its hood, the car will sport a new 1.2L petrol engine mated with Toyota’s hybrid technology, that promises good fuel efficiency of around 35-40 kmpl. The hybrid Swift is expected to be introduced in the first half of next year. The expected price will likely be a premium of Rs 1.5 lakh more than the non-hybrid variant.

This new-gen Dzire will have updated looks, improved interiors, new features and equipment, and also enhanced safety and dynamics. Similar to the Swift, the upcoming Dzire will also be powered by the new 1.2L strong-hybrid petrol engine, meaning the mileage in Dzire will be the same as the Swift.
