CNG vehicles are known for their low CO2 emissions and are used in Japan for route buses, and LPG (liquefied natural gas) vehicles are also seen in cabs.
Maruti Suzuki’s S-CNG technology is conceived, designed, and developed through rigorous testing at its world-class R&D facilities.
S-CNG vehicles are equipped with two interdependent electronic control units (ECUs) and an intelligent injection system, providing an air-fuel ratio that guarantees superior performance and better savings.
The safety of the S-CNG vehicles is further enhanced by stainless steel pipes and joints to prevent corrosion and leaks throughout the CNG structure, an integrated wiring harness to prevent short circuits, and a micro switch that ensures the vehicle does not start off during CNG refueling.
The new Swift S-CNG has body dimensions of 3845 mm (length) x 1735 mm (width) x 1530 mm (height) and a wheelbase of 2450 mm.
The powertrain is powered by a 1.2-liter dual-jet engine that delivers a maximum output of 77.49 hp and a maximum torque of 98.5 Nm, while achieving high fuel efficiency.
In addition, the powertrain and suspension are specially tuned to provide engine durability, fuel economy, and excellent safety.
This makes it India’s sportiest, most powerful and fuel-efficient CNG premium hatchback.
Shashank Srivastava, Senior Executive Director (Marketing & Sales), Maruti Suzuki, said.
The Swift brand needs no further explanation and this iconic sporty hatchback will be powered by the proven Maruti Suzuki S-CNG technology.
And while its performance, styling and presence have attracted more than 26,000 Swift fans, now with S-CNG, we are pleased to be able to delight our customers with its incredible fuel economy.
This is the ninth Swift model in the Indian market to be powered by CNG, and the company is committed to creating cleaner and more environmentally friendly vehicles.
The Swift is constantly evolving as the most successful hatchback in the Indian market, and the Swift S-CNG is the perfect proposition for customers seeking a nimble and economical city drive.

In addition to the new Swift, Maruti Suzuki has sold more than one million eco-friendly S-CNG vehicles to date, including the Alto, Wagon R, Celerio, Geely, Ertiga, Eco, Super Carry and Tour-S.
This is due to the Indian government’s efforts to expand the country’s CNG fuel pump network, and the sale of the S-CNG vehicle series contributes to reducing oil imports and increasing the share of natural gas in primary energy.
The new Swift S-CNG to be launched in the Indian market is priced between 777,000 Indian rupees and 845,000 Indian rupees (approximately 1,320,000 to 1,430,000 yen).

Introducing the 2024 Toyota Harrier A Luxurious Revolution with 5 Must See Features
ByPawaniThe Toyota Harrier, a renowned luxury crossover SUV, has been a symbol of elegance and sophistication since its debut in 1997. Now in its fourth generation, following a complete redesign in 2020, the Harrier continues to captivate as a toptier luxury SUV. Available with various powertrain options such as a 2.0 liter gasoline engine, a 2.5 liter hybrid, and a 2.5 liter plugin hybrid, the Harrier offers versatility with choices like 2WD and 4WD (E-Four). At the top of the range is the PHEV “Z” grade, exclusively offered in 4WD (E-Four), featuring exquisite interior and exterior details that exude opulence, priced at 6.2 million yen.
On the other end of the spectrum lies the entry level model, the gasoline powered “S” grade, starting at 3,128,000 yen (2WD). Despite being the most affordable option, the S grade of the Harrier boasts a surprising level of equipment and luxury. The exterior design of the S grade differs from higher grades, featuring a unique triple lamp LED headlamp instead of the signature double L shaped LED daytime running lights. The front and rear bumpers are unadorned, and the 17 inch aluminum wheels sport a simple five spoke design in painted gray metallic finish. Unlike other grades with oval muffler cutters, the S grade showcases a distinctive perfect circle design.
Moving to the interior, the S grade emphasizes simplicity by omitting unnecessary embellishments. The steering wheel is adorned with silver accents instead of satin plating found in higher grades. Basic black components adorn the center console, door switches, and open tray. The seats are crafted from standard fabric, with manual adjustments for both driver and passenger seats, contrasting with power seats in higher trim levels.
Functionality wise, the S grade includes standard features like a regular anti glare mirror. However, for enhanced convenience and safety, buyers can opt for the digital inner mirror with front and rear recording function, a first for Toyota vehicles introduced in the Harrier. Additionally, an 8 inch display audio system compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is standard, along with ETC2.0 installation. Safety is paramount with Toyota Safety Sense incorporated across all grades, ensuring pre crash safety measures even on the S grade.
Despite its affordability, the S grade of the Harrier presents a luxurious ambiance with its meticulous design and thoughtful features. Initially priced at 2.99 million yen upon its 2020 release, garnering attention as a sub 3 million yen luxury SUV, a slight upgrade in 2022 has set its current price at 3.128 million yen, maintaining its allure as an accessible yet refined choice in the luxury SUV segment.
