Rumour: 5th-gen Suzuki Swift to debut this year; Swift Sport in 2024

The next-gen Suzuki Swift could be powered by a 1.2-litre mild-hybrid engine.

Japanese media is reporting launch timelines for the fifth-generation Swift. Reports suggest that the new model could arrive later this year, while the Swift Sport could debut in 2024.

As expected, the 5th-gen Swift is expected to get major design changes both inside and out. Reports suggest that the hatchback will feature a stylish exterior with rounded edges while maintaining the concept. The interior is also expected to be improved.

The Swift Sport will reportedly debut in the spring of 2024. It is likely to be powered by a K14D 1.4-litre turbo-petrol engine paired with a mild-hybrid system. On the other hand, the standard car could use a 1.2-litre mild-hybrid unit.

The next-generation Swift is expected to be launched in the Indian market sometime next year. The Swift Sport though, is unlikely to be part of Maruti Suzuki's product portfolio.
