Wheelbase 2450 mm 2450 mm

Styling

Since it’s just a facelift, no significant changes have been made to the overall design of the Swift as compared to the outgoing model. However, the front-end has been slightly updated. The car features a redesigned grille with a cross mesh design, along with a bold chrome strip that divides the radiator grille into two halves. This makes the front fascia look sportier than before, while the overall design language remains unchanged.
