The current third generation Maruti Swift was introduced in June 2010 and is due for a full makeover. A sketch from mag-x previews the fourth generation Suzuki Swift. According to a report from Car Sensor, the next-gen Swift should be launched in Japan in August 2017.
The fourth generation Suzuki Swift is currently under development in Europe, spyshots affirmed just a few days back. As depicted in the sketch, the all-new Swift will undergo an evolutionary redesign, remaining largely unchanged in shape. What will be extensively changed, will be under the skin.

The aforementioned report says that the 2017 Swift will measure 3,900 mm in length, 1,695 mm in width and 1,500 mm in height.
