The top-spec ZXi variant offers LED projector headlamps with DRLs, 15-inch alloy wheels, wireless charging, automatic climate control, and a rear washer wiper. This high-spec variant was introduced due to customer demand for a well-equipped hatchback with a factory-fitted CNG kit.

The deliveries for the new Swift CNG will start this weekend in Gujarat before expanding to other states like Maharashtra, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, and Delhi—Maruti's top markets for CNG models.
