Maruti Swift performance

The power figures might not tell much but the Swift packs a decent performance. The Swift, like other Maruti’s does not weigh a lot which works in its favour.

This coupled with the DualJet engine gives you a powerful package and a punch which is more than enough for overtaking. Usually, performance is a big factor for the youth which is why it is so popular.

High mileage and competitive pricing

The Maruti Swift has all the modern features and a decent engine as well. It gives all this at  a very competitive price. The mileage of the car is also one of the best in its segment with a claimed mileage of 21.21 km/l when compared to cars like the Volkswagen Polo. Since money is something that the youth have to look at while buying the car, both these factors come in handy.
