Maruti Swift LXI (Petrol)

Drive to your office in style in the Maruti Swift - India's most preferred car manufacturer. A Maruti car in India is an ideal family as well as personal choice any time. Spend a few minutes to read the New Maruti Swift LXI (Petrol) Review here.

The Maruti Swift is a new kind of low slung, wide body compact car that is a bit European but a lot more Japanese. Maruti has included a load of features on the exterior as well as the interior to give this car a sense of flawlessness and excellence in looks and performance. The Swift has more room and more aesthetic looks than any other car in the compact segment. It is available in both petrol and diesel versions

This versatile 5 door hatchback comfortably seats 5 people and takes them on a comfortable power-packed drive with its commanding 1298 cc petrol engine that provides an amazing 87 BHP @ 6000 rpm with a maximum torque of 113 Nm at 4,500 rpm.

Rev up to a maximum speed of 160 kph. Fill up the 43 litre tank to the full on a long journey and stop worrying about frequent refuelling! The diesel version is equally powerful with a thumping 1248 cc DOHC common rail engine featuring a fixed geometry turbo-charger with intercooler, thus providing a maximum power of 75bhp @ 4,000rpm and a maximum torque of 190Nm @ 2,000rpm.

The Swift envelopes more protective features with its advanced safety technologies like dual front airbags, ABS with EBD and a brake assist function. All these minimise the driving hazards that prop up all the time on congested city roads, or while driving all the way on the highway. Furthermore, the crashworthy outer structure of the Swift along with a collapsible steering column and SRS airbags prevents the worst of the harm that could come in case of an impact or collision.

A host of other features such as i-cats prevents thieves and witty opportunists from take your passionate belonging away. This feature which consists of a built in RF responder and an electronic authentication system provides owners with complete peace of mind. The Swift also comes with a headlamp levelling device with four levels of adjustment, thus allowing optimal illumination of the roads even with peak loads.

Additionally, the CANBUS system connects the microprocessor to real time situations, thereby providing instant response to unprecedented situations such as demand for more fuel during a rough ride, or instant deployment of airbags during a crash. The Automatic Climate Control (ACC) also handles demanding climatic conditions.

The Maruti Swift comes in both petrol and diesel variants. The petrol variants are the LXi, VXi, and the ZXi variants. The diesel variation includes the LDi and the VDi variants.

The Maruti Swift LXi petrol features Maruti's powerful 1298 cc SOHC naturally aspirated engine with MPFI fuel system. It delivers good power and torque, meaning good performance, acceleration, and handling. The power unit is attached to a five speed manual transmission.

The Maruti Swift LXi petrol is the base level variant in the Swift petrol series with basic range price tag. This five-door hatchback is capable of delivering a fuel economy of around 11 kmpl and 16 kmpl depending upon driving conditions. It has a large fuel tank capacity of 43 litres.

The Maruti Swift LXi petrol has basic level comfort and safety features such as power steering, air-conditioning, and child safety lock.
