Updates Under The Hood

Maruti Swift

Maruti has equipped the Swift CNG with the same 1.2-litre petrol engine as the standard model, albeit it makes 77.5PS and 98.5Nm in CNG guise. However, unlike the regular variants which come with both 5-speed MT and AMT options, the Swift CNG only gets the MT. The carmaker claims a fuel efficiency of 30.90km/kg in CNG mode for this version of the midsize hatchback.

Other Changes And Features

The Swift CNG gets a retuned suspension setup to improve the handling with the added weight of the tank. Apart from this, no other changes have been made to the hatchback. The equipment list of CNG variants matches the corresponding petrol-manual variants of the Swift.

With this fuel option update, the Swift is now on a par with the Hyundai Grand i10 Nios, which has been available with the CNG kit for a long time. The similarly priced seven-seat Renault Triber doesn’t get the alternative fuel choice though. Maruti is also offering the Swift CNG on a subscription basis for Rs 16,499 per month (all-inclusive).
