Maruti Swift facelift to boast enhanced performance and efficiency
Jun 22, 2020
The third generation of Maruti Suzuki Swift may have only been in the market since 2018, but an updated version is already running. Expected to hit showrooms approximately sometime in the third quarter of 2020 due to delays associated with the coronavirus, the refreshed Maruti swift will have minor facelift, a more powerful Dualjet petrol engine, and minor changes on the inside.rnrnThe real talking point, of the conversation, of course, is the new engine: the third petrol in Swift's 15-year history. The maximum power of the dual injector motor (per cylinder) engine sees a substantial jump from 7hp to 90hp, and it combines with the expected kerb weight of 895kg, and you arrive at a power-to-weight ratio of about 100hp per ton. So expect a good performance boost, with 0-100 kph time of 10-11sec.rnrn Maruti SwiftrnrnWhile Maruti has steered clear of the trend of turbocharged direct injection petrol at the moment, the Dualjet engine could offer the best of both worlds.
