ARAI Fuel Efficiency (Indicative)
Precise official ARAI figures for each of the 14 variants vary slightly and are often summarized by media rather than listed per configuration. Collated data and tests indicate
- 1.2L Z12E Petrol MT
- Claimed ARAI mileage: ~24–26 km/l depending on variant and wheel/feature load.
- Real‑world mixed driving: often reported 18–21 km/l in Indian reviews.
- 1.2L Z12E Petrol AMT (AGS)
- Claimed ARAI mileage: typically a shade higher or similar to MT (~24–25 km/l).
- Real‑world: 17–20 km/l in city‑heavy cycles, slightly better on highways.
- 1.2L Z12E S‑CNG MT (VXi / VXi(O) / ZXi CNG)
- Claimed CNG efficiency: media and buying guides cite around 28–31 km/kg CNG, depending on cycle.
- Petrol mode on CNG variants usually offers slightly lower km/l than pure‑petrol equivalents due to weight increase.
These figures make the 2026 Suzuki Swift one of the more fuel‑efficient compact hatchbacks in its class, especially in S‑CNG form for high‑running users.
