Global NCAP crash-tested the Maruti Suzuki Swift built for the Indian market. It received zero stars for adult occupant protection.
South Africa also gets its Swifts from Indian factories. “All of SA’s 1.2-litre Suzuki Swift models are sourced from India, but they do have airbags,” Suzuki South Africa said. The country receives the “Latin American export specification” version. According to the company, the Global NCAP test of the export model “resulted in a three-star rating.”
