Maruti Suzuki is working on launching the facelifted version of its popular family car, the Swift, in India sometime around the festive season.
The upcoming hatchback would arrive with several feature updates, some design tweaks, and a BS6-compliant petrol engine.
To recall, the company had launched the facelifted version of the Dzire in the country last week.
Here are more details.

Going by the reports, the 2020 Swift would retain the sporty, compact design of the outgoing model. However, it will come with a restyled front profile featuring a new bumper, grille, and redesigned fog lamp housings.
Apart from that, the hatchback could also get a new set of alloy wheels, electronically-adjustable indicator-mounted ORVMs, and a revised rear bumper.

Power and performance
-
The 2020 Swift will reportedly arrive as a petrol-only model. It would draw power from a 1.2-liter DualJet petrol engine that can be paired with either a 5-speed manual gearbox or an AMT system.
The aforementioned unit is capable of producing 90PS of power and 113Nm of peak torque.
Further, the new engine would also offer a slightly better mileage over the outgoing model.

Finally, how much will it cost?
-
As for the pocket-pinch, the BS4 range of Maruti Suzuki Swift starts at Rs. 5.19 lakh and goes up to Rs. 8.01 lakh. However, considering the design and engine updates, we expect the new-generation model to carry a significant premium over its BS4 counterpart.
