In terms of design, we can see a few changes. For starters, the honeycomb pattern on the grille seems to be larger and a key highlight is its new bonnet. In 3rd gen Swift, bonnet neatly merged into its bumpers that seemed to be inspired by Mini designs.

Maruti Swift Gen 4 will deviate from Mini-inspired design philosophy a little and gets a clamshell bonnet that mimics an SUV. This is the most stand-out change and the new horizontal shut line is clearly evident.

Next immediately noticeable change is at its rear doors. It gets door handles at a conventional location and is not integrated into the C-pillar. This element made rear passengers feel a little claustrophobic and in the new Swift, we get a quarter glass.

Interiors of 4th gen Swift are overhauled to give a new look. Features like HUD, larger 9” free-standing touchscreen infotainment system, 6 airbags and more. These features are offered on Baleno.

Specs & Launch

Maruti Swift Gen 4 will be almost similar to the preceding model in terms of dimensions. A length of 3.8m to 3.9m is likely. Right now, Swift comes with 2 airbags as standard and gets 2-star crash rating. With focus on safety increasing, it is likely Maruti Suzuki will try to aim for better crash ratings with Swift Gen 4.
