Maruti Swift priced at Rs. 4.66 lakh in city

Staff Reporter

BANGALORE: Maruti Udyog Ltd. on Thursday announced ex-showroom prices in Bangalore of its new Maruti Suzuki Swift diesel model.

Company's chief general manager (marketing) Mayank Pareek told presspersons here that the base model of Swift LDi would cost Rs. 4,66,286 and the other model, Swift VDi, Rs. 4,94,795.

He said the price was only an introductory offer.

He refused to say how long it would last.

Compared to petrol variant, Swift Diesel would cost Rs. 68,000 more.

Although Mr. Pareek said the car was "most fuel efficient," he did not give the mileage figures. He said the company would rather leave it to a third party to assess.

He said the Swift diesel would be on par with its petrol variant in performance.

The smallest four-cylinder engine with five-injection technology had an electronic control system that would lead to homogenous combustion.

This made the engine silent. Vibration would be minimal.

The engine was introduced in India within months of its launch in Europe, making it the one with the most contemporary diesel technology.
