    My favorite car in India is the 2018 Maruti Suzuki Swift. It offers a perfect blend of style, performance, and practicality. The sporty design, efficient 1.2L engine, and excellent fuel ecoNomy (22-23 km/l) make it a great choice for city driving. The cabin is spacious, the tech features are modern, and with Maruti's reliable service network, it's easy to maintain. Overall, it's a fun, affordable, and hassle-free car. Though it is Now upgraded to new model but the DNA remains the same. I wish maruti could continue with the 4 cylinder engine

    After 10 years of use, car is still in condition and doesn't require any major maintenance or expenses. Car pickup and smoothness is still top notch

    Swift really gives you the best of both worlds. My 2015 petrol swift with the 1.2 k-series vvti engine is as reliable as is it fun to drive. Work the gears a bit and it will close all gaps in the city streets in a blink of an eye due to it's good low-to-mid end torque, but maintain a steady 100 on the highway and it sips petrol, giving you 16-17kmpl on the odometer with the AC on! Basic but sufficient features for the price that you get them for. The only complain has always been for the build quality, and the NVH levels. But swapping my stock bridgestone tyres to Yokohama Earth 1s was a worthy decision - lesser road noise, better grip and handling. All in all, go for the Swift if you want a car that is easy on the pocket but gives you the thrill when you ask for it!

    Maruti Suzuki Swift ZDI is my favorite car. The sporty design and peppy performance makes it a fun car to drive. It is economical and has low maintainance costs which is best suited for my daily commute in the city. Also the compact size and spacious cabin ensure a comfortable driving experience.
