Maruti Suzuki will likely launch the Swift's CNG variant on September 12, 2024, aspiring to strengthen its position in India's CNG vehicle market with the popular hatchback's new offering.
Maruti Suzuki is poised to expand its CNG line-up by introducing the Swift CNG, which is likely scheduled for launch next week. The CNG variant will be based on the latest generation Swift hatchback, which debuted Suzuki's new Z12E 1.2L 3-cylinder naturally aspirated petrol engine in May. This addition to the S-CNG line-up could further solidify Maruti Suzuki's dominant position in India's CNG vehicle market, where the company currently holds a 73% share.
The upcoming Swift CNG variant is expected to be priced approximately Rs. 90,000 higher than its petrol-only counterparts. While specific details about the CNG kit are not yet available, industry watchers are curious to see if Maruti Suzuki will introduce a more advanced dual-cylinder system, as seen in competing models from Tata Motors and Hyundai.
The Swift CNG will be powered by the 1.2-litre, three-cylinder Z12E engine, marking the first time this powerplant has been paired with a CNG option. While multiple trim levels are anticipated, it remains uncertain whether the CNG variant will be available in top-spec configurations.
Pricing for the Swift CNG is projected to be approximately Rs 80,000 to Rs 90,000 higher than equivalent petrol-powered variants. This strategic move aligns with Maruti Suzuki's goal to boost CNG vehicle sales across India.
Currently, CNG models account for 34% of Maruti's total sales, with the company experiencing a 37% growth in CNG vehicle sales compared to the previous year. Maruti Suzuki holds a 73% share of the total CNG cars and SUVs sold in the Indian market.
Looking ahead, the automaker aims to sell over 600,000 CNG vehicles in the 2024-2025 fiscal year, a figure that would match the entire market's CNG sales in the previous fiscal year.
