Verdict
The Maruti Suzuki Swift is one of the most popular hatchback in the Indian market. The hatchback is yet to be crash tested in India, but the global crash test ratings might turn off some potential customers. It is important to note that the India spec variant comes with less safety features as compared to international spec variants.
