Maruti Suzuki on Wednesday announced the prices for its much anticipated all new Swift. The petrol variant of the Swift will start at a competitive Rs. 4.22 lakh, while the higher end variant will cost Rs. 5.52 lakh. The older Swift (petrol version) was priced just under Rs. 4 lakh when it was initially launched.
The diesel variant has been priced between Rs. 5.17 lakh to Rs. 6.38 lakh. The company said it has already received over 50,000 bookings for the new Swift.
Swift has been one of the star performers from the Maruti stable and such was the popularity of the hatchback that buyers had to book many variants in advance, years after the model was first launched. Maruti stopped production of the current generation of Swift in July to make way for the new model. The Swift was first introduced in May 2005 and the model has witnessed a cumulative sale of over six lakh units so far.
It is the largest selling premium compact hatchback in India with sales in excess of 150,000 units every year.
