So we at Chandigarh Metro pitch the Maruti Suzuki Swift against the Hyundai i10 Grand to see who wins the battle of the compact hatchbacks.
Maruti Suzuki Swift 2018 vs. Hyundai i10 Grand: Looks
When it comes to looks, the old Swift looked rather outdated in comparison to the Hyundai i10 Grand. With the new 2018 Facelift however, the Maruti Suzuki Swift looks the business. With its menacing looks and cool LED inserts in the headlamps it does not give the i10 Grand a leg to stand on.
Coming to the interiors, both the cars look premium for the price bracket they are in. Maruti Suzuki has managed to make the Swift look a lot sportier on the inside too. The steering wheel is flattened towards the bottom and manages to appeal to the enthusiasts. The instrument cluster too with its round dials protruding out make the package a lot more interesting than the Hyundai counterpart.

However, the platform the new car is built is lighter and might increase the efficiency as well as the performance than the previous generation Swift. Still the cars are almost identical when it comes to power figures if you are not a nitpicker. The new Swift will deliver a fuel efficiency of 26 kilometres to a litre (expected) which is marginally higher than that of the Hyundai i10 Grand.
