Spec Comparison: Maruti Suzuki Swift Vs Hyundai Grand i10 Vs Ford Figo

Maruti Suzuki has launched the third-gen Swift in India with prices starting at Rs 4.99 lakh (Swift launch report). With the update, it seems like the carmaker is looking to further strengthen its presence in the segment. Let's see how the new Swift fares against its competition and whether it has what it takes to remain at the top its category.      

Dimensions	Maruti Suzuki Swift	Hyundai Grand i10	Ford Figo
Length	3840mm	3765mm	3886mm
Width	1735mm	1660mm	1695mm
Height	1530mm	1520mm	1525mm
Wheelbase	2450mm	2425mm	2491mm
Ground Clearance	163mm	165mm	174mm
Boot Space	268 litres	256 litres	257 litres

Starting off with the dimensions, the new Swift is the tallest and widest hatchback in its segment. It also has the longest wheelbase among the three. The Swift’s’ wider and taller construction makes it a more spacious car than before. When it comes to luggage carrying capacity, the Swift remains the leader while the other two get an almost identical boot space. With a ground clearance of 174mm, the Figo is best equipped among the lot to take on tall speed breakers and deep ruts that our roads are known for. The Grand i10 comes second with 165mm followed by the Swift at 163mm.

Engine	1.3-litre	1.2-litre	1.5-litre
Power	75PS @ 4000rpm	75PS @ 4000rpm	100PS @ 3750rpm

Transmission	5-speed MT/AMT	5-speed MT	5-speed MT
Fuel Economy	28.4kmpl	24.95kmpl	25.83kmpl

The Figo gets the largest capacity engine of the three. The 1.5-litre unit is also the most powerful one here. The other two cars get engines with identical power and torque output. Amongst the three, only the Swift gets the option of an AMT gearbox alongside the 5-speed manual which comes as standard on all three cars. On the fuel economy front, the Swift is the most efficient one.

Petrol Engine	Maruti Suzuki Swift	Hyundai Grand i10	Ford Figo
Engine	1.2-litre	1.2-litre	1.2-litre/1.5-litre
Power	83PS @ 6000rpm	83PS @ 6000rpm	88PS @ 6300rpm/112PS @ 6300rpm
Torque	113Nm @ 4200rpm	113Nm @ 4000rpm	112Nm @ 4000/ 136 @ 4250
Transmission	5-speed MT/AMT	5-speed MT/ 4-speed AT	5-speed MT/ 6-speed dual-clutch transmission AT
Fuel Economy	22kmpl	19.77kmpl	18.16kmpl/17.0kmpl

Likewise, the petrol Figo is the most powerful car in this comparison. The other two cars have identical power and torque figures. However, this time around, all three cars are offered with automatic transmission, albeit different technologies. While the Figo automatic gets a more advance dual-clutch gearbox, which is offered only with the 1.5-litre petrol engine, the Grand i10 gets an old-school 4-speed torque converter. The Swift, be it in manual or automatic guise, continues to be the most fuel efficient one in this comparison as well.
