The ZXi+ variant of the Maruti Swift sees the highest price hike of Rs 39,000 for the manual version, while the VXi, VXi AMT and VXi CNG variants are hiked by just Rs 15,000. Prices of the variants have been increased by Rs 25,000.

VXI	Rs 7.15 lakh	Rs 7 lakh	Rs 15,000
VXI AMT	Rs 7.65 lakh	Rs 7.50 lakh	Rs 15,000
ZXI	Rs 7.93 lakh	Rs 7.68 lakh	Rs 25,000
ZXI AMT	Rs 8.43 lakh	Rs 8.18 lakh	Rs 25,000
ZXI+	Rs 8.78 lakh	Rs 8.39 lakh	Rs 39,000
ZXI+ AMT	Rs 9.14 lakh	Rs 8.89 lakh	Rs 25,000
VXI CNG	Rs 8.05 lakh	Rs 7.90 lakh	Rs 15,000
ZXI CNG	Rs 8.83 lakh	Rs 8.58 lakh	Rs 25,000

Despite the hike, there's no visual or mechanical changes to the Maruti Swift, and it continues to be powered by the 90hp, 113Nm, 1.2-litre, four-cylinder petrol engine that's mated to a 5-speed manual of 5-speed AMT gearbox.

The price hike for the current-gen Swift will be valid for just around a month as the next-gen Swift will launch by mid-May 2024. Carmakers usually hike prices of the outgoing model to soften the blow of the inherent price hike the new-gen model would bring.

Next-gen Maruti Swift launch in May 2024

The Swift will be one of Maruti's biggest launches in 2024, and it will be followed by the all-new Dzire compact sedan later this year. The new Maruti Swift (codename:YED) will feature a fresh yet familiar design, a new interior, and all-new 1.2-litre, three-cylinder petrol engine.

The new Swift will be equipped with a larger 9-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, as well as six airbags that will likely be standard across the range. For the Swift, it remains to be seen if Maruti launches the next-gen car at the same price or at a higher price point than the outgoing one.
