Pak Suzuki introduced the first domestically made Suzuki Swift yesterday, putting an end to the wait for the new Suzuki Swift. In manufacturing pictures, a silver-colored unit can be seen. The car has Halogen headlamps and DRLs, according to the photographs. This does not appear to be the top-of-the-line model.
Fog lights and alloy wheels may be included in the top-of-the-line Suzuki, according to our sources. According to insiders, the launch will take place around the end of February or the beginning of March. Now for the pictures.
Images of the 2019 Suzuki Swift on a car trailer had previously surfaced on social media. These are locally assembled units, according to a number of auto blogs and social media pages. We did warn you, however, that nothing is guaranteed at this time and that we should wait. The fact that the spotted unit was imported has now been verified.

Engine power
In Pakistan, the car will be launched with a K12C (1250cc) Dualjet inline-4 engine paired to a 5-speed manual or CVT transmission. Despite the fact that another 1000cc Turbo engine is available on the international market, Pakistan appears to be the first to receive one. We believe there is a good cause for the 1250cc model to be launched in Pakistan.
The original Swift had a displacement of 1395cc, and owners had to pay a higher token tax, which had an impact on car sales. Owners will now benefit from the 1250cc engine displacement because it means a lesser token tax.

What is the expected price?
According to sources, the company would start at Rs. 27-28 lakh area. And if that’s the case, we think it’s a little high, given a Changan Alsvin, Toyota Yaris, and even a base Honda City can be had for this price. And the majority of Pakistanis choose to buy a car through Diggi. Car enthusiasts, on the other hand, will buy it nevertheless because the new engine will be extremely efficient.
