Maruti Suzuki has announced the arrival of its automatic transmission, called the Auto Gear Shift (AGS), in the highest-spec variants of the latest generation of the Suzuki Swift. The automatic transmission will be available on both the petrol and the diesel engines. The top models of the Swift with an automatic gearbox coupled with the petrol and diesel engines are now priced at INR 7.76 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi) and INR 8.76 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi), respectively. Previously, the option for an AGS model was available only in the VXI, ZXI, VDI, and ZDI variants, now with an addition of the ZXI+ and the ZDI+ variants as well.
R. S. Kalsi, the Senior Executive Director of Marketing and Sales in Maruti Suzuki India, said, “Swift has always scored high on customers’ expectations. With the latest evolution, the all-new Swift has reached the next level of customer delight. AGS has been very well appreciated by our Swift customers. We had customer feedback seeking the convenience of AGS in the high-selling top-end variants. Accordingly, we are now offering AGS in the top-end ZXI+ and ZDI+ variants. This will further strengthen the brand Swift and enhance the popularity of Maruti Suzuki’s acclaimed two-pedal technology.”
