The Maruti Suzuki Swift isn’t just a car; it’s an icon for many across the globe. This hatchback has sold over 10 million units worldwide. The car’s journey began in Japan in 2004, and it entered the Indian market in 2005.
India has played a massive role in the Swift’s success, with 60% of the sales coming from the country. The Swift quickly became popular in India due to its stylish design, fuel efficiency, and affordability, making it a favorite among the middle class. The introduction of diesel variants and models like the Dzire further boosted its demand. Local production, which began a year after the launch, kept prices down, contributing to its widespread popularity.
