The country's largest car maker Maruti Suzuki India said that it will launch an upgraded variant of the Swift by August. This would be the 3rd generation of Suzuki Swift

Maruti said that it will reorient the production of 'Swift' and 'DZiRE' in its two facilities at Gurgaon and Manesar to enhance output.

Swift is positioned as Suzuki's latest world strategic model. The Swift was first unveiled by Suzuki in 2005 with a sporty sub-compact design.

The new Maruti Swift carries alot of features from the international Swift, which you would never dream a Maruti to have as standard equipment. There are two engines on offer and the petrol is available with a 4-speed automatic as well. Maruti Suzuki wants to prevent cannibalization of the Swift with the Ritz by positioning the new Swift as a premium hatchback.
