Other than the airbag, the variant carries over features that were available in the previous Swift DLX such as a music system with Bluetooth, USB and speakers, power windows for all doors, central locking, and blacked-out pillars. None of these features are available on the model it is based on, the Swift LXI grade.

The Maruti Swift DLX is powered by the 1.2-liter K-Series petrol engine paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox, which is capable of producing 84.3 PS and 114 Nm of torque. It can average a fuel economy of 20.4 km/L.
