Top models are expected to pack in Maruti’s latest SmartPlay Pro infotainment system with a 9.0-inch touchscreen. The air-con controls, steering wheel and instrument cluster are also common elements among the new-gen Maruti models.
The Swift is expected to also take some major steps forward in terms of safety. The hatchback will pack in six airbags and ESC as standard aside from the basic safety kit.
While continuing to sit on the Heartect platform like the outgoing model the fourth-gen Swift gets a new engine under the hood.
