Style, Comfort, EconomyIn Built Blue Tooth Handsfree Device

Exterior Absolutely fantastic. No car can beat this. I loved the rear and frontal view of the car. Specially blue color with metallic is amazing. It gives you a feeling of a sport car

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) i havent seen old swift's interior but i know the interior is top notch. the quality and finishing is amazing. Just you will need to take care more for this. the gear box and and new display looks amazing. however the seat is little low and you will have to take care while driving in crowded road. it has to increase or give that option. Seats are amazing. roof looks cool. dashboard beautiful. 

i firmly believe that vxi/vdi should have integrated music system. Thats the one and only thing which i feel missing. 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine performance - so far good, just drove few hundred kms. Grear box...pretty neat.

Ride Quality & Handling I do not think any car really match upto the swift when it comes to ride and handling and experience. I rode almost all the cars in this segment and realized swift is way ahead in this game. Absolutely nice. patholes are nothing anymore. you feel like you are sitting in some luxurious car

Final Words Go for it. even if you have to wait for like 6 months. I waited 7 months and believe me wait is all worth. You will know when you will get it. 

Areas of improvement Waiting period and audio system needs to be there. Also it will be good if we have seat height adjustment. 

Ride, handling, interior, looks, design almost everythingvxi dont have music system :-(

Exterior

 The exterir is good looking and attractive, nicely designed car

Colour quality is good, they should some with some more colours

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 - When you get inside the car you feel premium, nicely designed interiors, plastic quality is good all the controls are good.

Ya seats are very comfortable especially the front ones

Bootspace is good enough you can put your one airportbag easily - I tried actually

- I feel that there is space limits in the car I am 5.4" I feel that head room is good but foot space is not great may be due to design of the seat or that handle given to adjust steering wheel height which touches my knee all the times when I get in.

- AC of the car is good and works well, generally when the car is hot dont expect too much - for that I open all 4 windows with AC on for 5 mins and close it to remove hot air from cabin - then it works fine.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 - Very good engine I am using VDi - the performance of car is too good.

-  Turbo charger works just well when you press the paddle it just feels like driving racing car this is the reason I bought this car.

- Engine noise in not much once you close all glasses and put on the music its silent, you wont even feel you are driving petrol or Diesel!!

- I tried lonavala ghats and other ghat - believe me this car goes on ghats just effortlessly very powerful engine.

- I have touched around 130 + on Pune-Mumb Expy goes very well with confididence

- I use it for my daily travel in Pune City(Hadapsar-Hinjewadi) I get 20 Kmpl - yes actual figure 80% of the time AC on.

- When the engine was new I went on long drive of around 500 Kms at that time I got 23 Kmpl on highway with 100% AC on!!. also in City I was getting 19.8 till it completed 7000 KMs after it it automatically started giving more milage!!

- After around 8000 Kms I feel that the Engine is rouse and internal part polishing was done and engine became very much smooth and responsive.

Ride Quality & Handling

 Good, nice on corners and sharp turns

Final Words

 - Good car withing this budget.

Areas of improvement  

 Space, Break some times give good types make Alloy common with VDI at least and above

 

Good power, Pick up, Fuel efficiency, HandlingSpace

Exterior It's very easy to remove the paint from car. Car is dust loving.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Very less space at back side.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Good everage 25 KMPL-Gear shifing issue

Ride Quality & Handling Good but not the best compare to 2009 model of swift

Final Words Sometimes It's very hard to move to reverse gear, I was suggested to leave the clutch paddle one more time to get smoothness. I received a defective product where the car was stucking on 1st gear. After communicating from Sales person, HR Manager, Cleaner, Jr Manager from Kataria Group, General Manager from Kataria Group, Territory officer from Maruti Suzuki, they aggreed to replace Gear box as whole.

Issues still considearing as feedback as follow:

1) On blurred or blunt road surface, dashboard reflects with cunning noice. They aggreed that all 2015 Swift VDI uplift car having that facility

2) Gear stucking in moving to reverse. They aggreed updon that it's because of the technology which they used.

Areas of improvement Customer satisfaction, Qualititative product.

Fual EconomyGear shifting issue, cunning noice from dashboard, worst painted car

Exterior The paint job is OK, not as rich as my i10, gets scratched easiliy. bumper are also very thin to get torn up easily.   

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The AC is too weak, the VDI does not cool in pune afternoon, so it  will not  do so in any other city. My I10 gives much better cooling.

 The back mirror have design issue, night time flip still shows about 50% normal light to discturb your eyes. The horn also  should have a bit more aread on sterring, it s too much in center and have to move hand vs fingers.

The turn indicator are actually hazardeous, one light touch and it will kick off the indication for 3 times, I like  my i10's 100% manual one a bit safer.

It  shoud have about 10cm extra length though. the back seats get cramped if the front ones want to relax.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Great on all account

Ride Quality & Handling  Ride quality not as relaxing as i10/i20. Handling is much better though

Final Words Gr8 car, dont regret buying it.

Areas of improvement make the back seats a bit spacy. and take care of suggestions mentioned above

 

Feather light driving experience. Gr8 PickupDashboard reflection on windshield, low featrures on Factory Stereo

The back seat is not very great in terms of leg space and under thigh support and never forget about the trunk size , if you are 4 people going on trip trunk can manage 4 backpacks only . you don't have license to take even a small suitcase for each. This problem even increase with new swift. But overall its a good car for city driving and it is good on pocket of buyer as well.

Exterior Suzuki has tken classic and packaged it into contenpraory, well one cannot say that everything has changed, but still the look feels rreally appealing and boler than the predicisor swift.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) I am quite impressed by the all black interior it gives it quite a upmarket appeal and more modern touch. The Central waterfall console is adds on to the modern looks. The interior plastic is soft and up market. But i still fell that use of some brushed aluminium would have added some more grace and changed the monotonous black appeal.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The Engine is the one arena which left me throughly impressed it is a nice peppy and responsive engine, everytime one pushes the rpm above 2200 there is a slurge of turbo kick and the swift pounces like a hound. The enigne is suitable for both city as well as highway drive. with excellent high and mid range performance, its only the lower ranger where the engine struggles. Fuel Economy is execellent, buit it depends on the driver and the considition. Proper shifts improves the economy. Gearbox is very good its short and presise.

Ride Quality & Handling The Ride quality is the down side of this car to a extent, the suspension being stiff the car makes you feel all the bumps on the road and the rear seat passenger is the victim in bad road conditions. The leg room in the rear is meager and due to the slooping roof line the head room is also compramised making it a clastrafobic condition. the Handling is good in straight line sprnt the car is planted, but in the cruve one has to be careful the car has a tendency of lossing grip on the cruves at high speeds, so one cannot attack the corners. 

Final Words In all the Swift is  a great valve for money package, its a perfect car for the people with average city commute and occational getaway drive. Dont keep very high exectations and you wont be dissappointed.

Areas of improvement The areas of improvement is the ride quality, it needs a softer set up of suspensions and a little weight in its handling to attack the coners. and last but not the least some leg room in the rear set.

Responsive Engine, short gearshifts, and good AestheticsLack of Leg room in rear seat, and Stiff Suspension

Exterior of the vehicle is very good... the large headlamps is really distinctive. the front grill and the front bumper is much better. the shape of the front bumper gives the feel of much bigger car. the side mrror mounted side indicators and the eletrical mirrors are elegant. though i believe the rear end is better in the old swift, its not that bad a rear,. the same old wheel cup is really boring.. i changed it to brand new alloy wheels. it has completly changed the side view of the car. please do not keep on that cheap wheel cups it really lets the whole car down.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

the interior of the car is miles bettr than the old swift. the meterconsole and the dash really makes us feel upmarket. its still not up against its volkswagen and fiat rivals. unlike some people say i really lov the black interior. the car has many safety features wen compared to the old. the internally adjustable mirrors , tiltable steering, 4 power windows really as to the comfort. regarding space its really is a drivers car, the space in the back is really not in the class. its impossible even for children to sit in the rear if the number exceeds 3.but there is enough space in the front. the seating position is very low so getting in and out is troublesome for me, i am just short of 6foot. quality of material is ok.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

the engine is a gem, its smooth and quiet and powerful.. the turbo lag is really evident wen the car is packed. but once the 2000rpm is crossed, its like suddenly a beast within has woken up.. its fun to drive wen in turbo range. car smoothly sails to 120kmph even without breaking a sweat.i got an economy of over 21kmpl in highways with 60%a.c and above 17 in city with 60% a.c. gears are smooth and slick though i have difficulty to put the reverse gear,.

 

Ride Quality & Handling

ride quality and hanling is better than the old swift. but the suspension could still be better. its nowhere near that of a punto. sound of road and engine is much less inside the cabin unlike the old model. the handling is just awesome. its really in a league of its own. the car could be literally spun in our fingers, just awesome handling. i had a problem with my front disc breaks some smoke came from it while i drove long downhill road many a kilometres with frequent breaks.wen i said tis to my dealer they said the break could be jammed. i dont have any issue now, dont know whether its bcos of there work or due to the fact that i havent gone in the same way after the service. 

 

Final Words

guys tis car is awesome ... its really worth the wait if u cud manage it somehow. i wud say u book it now without thinking about the money, there is lot of time to think about it before u get the call from ur dealer. lol. its my first car n my first review in any site... i wrote tis bcos i have read literally all the reviews u guys have written about tis car in tis site.. it helped me a lot to make tis perfect decision to buy tis excellent value for money car..

 

Areas of improvement  a.c and the rear leg room must be improved..

 

 

good mileage, very refined engine, inetrior quality has improve a lot, cabin is lot more quiet.a.c needs to have more power, leg room at back is only marginally better than the old swift

Exterior The body looks good. But however, i somehow felt that the body is not so strong. Probably they are trying to reduice the quality to keep the same price.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interiors look ok. But the deahboard switches are very clumsy.  The A/C positioning switch. I really hate to touch it. You would never set it to the correct position. But other things are kind of ok.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine performance is very good. I ran for 4K so far and it is very smooth.  No complaints on this. :-)

Ride Quality & Handling Can't complain.

Final Words Overall it is very good cars. I checked other cars also and I think this is the best car. Some people say Figo and others. But Maruti is the best. if there are so many complaints. Why so many people  buy Swift. So. I would always go with the best rather "trying" something new.

Areas of improvement Body should be more stronger. Interiors need to be improved.   come on  how much it costs for them to use quality switches. I dont think it doesn't cost much.
