Maruti Suzuki has launched a special edition of the Swift for the festive season called the Blitz. Maruti Arena dealers will be retailing the Swift Blitz for a limited period to push sales of the hatchback’s lower-spec variants.

 

The Swift Blitz will be offered in five variants – LXI, VXI, VXI AMT, VXI(O) and VXI(O) AMT. Apart from the features available on the respective variants, the Blitz gets what Maruti calls a rear underbody spoiler, a spoiler on top of the boot, fog lamps, illuminated door sills, door visors and moulding along the sides.

This kit, worth Rs 49,848, is being offered to buyers for free, which means the Maruti Swift Blitz is priced between Rs 6.49 lakh-8.02 lakh. The Swift that arrived in May and got CNG-powered variants just last month, is powered by a 1.2-litre three-cylinder engine that produces 82hp and 112Nm on petrol and 70hp and 112Nm on CNG. In petrol form, it gets a 5-speed manual gearbox as standard, along with a 5-speed AMT option on all but the base variant.

The Swift Blitz marks Maruti’s fifth special edition for the festive season. The brand is working hard to boost sales during this period and has brought out the Baleno Regal EditionGrand Vitara Dominion EditionWagon R Waltz Edition and the Ignis Radiance Edition in the last couple of months.
