Maruti Suzuki launched the new-generation Swift a few months back and the Indian carmaker has launched a CNG variant of the hatchback. Here are the ex-showroom prices for the new Swift S-CNG:
- VXi CNG: Rs 8.20 lakh
- VXi (O) CNG: Rs 8.47 lakh
- ZXi CNG: Rs 9.20 lakh
The Swift S-CNG shares its powerplant with the new-generation petrol-powered Swift. The all-new 1.2-litre 3-cylinder engine in CNG guise delivers 70PS and 102Nm (the Petrol version delivers 82PS and 112Nm). Maruti Suzuki claims that the Swift S-CNG offers a fuel efficiency of 32.85km/kg (Petrol Swift delivers 24.8kmpl in MT and 25.75kmpl in AMT variants). However, the Swift S-CNG’s engine only comes mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox.
The Swift S-CNG looks identical to the petrol-powered variants and other than the compromised boot space owing to the CNG cylinder, the interiors remain the same. The Swift S-CNG is the 14th CNG-powered offering in Maruti Suzuki’s portfolio.
