Maruti Swift received an update in 2024, but got just one star safety rating in the Australian ANCAP crash Test. It found 3 stars in Euro NCAP.
Silent update
Suzuki recently updated Swift's species quietly, and these changes have proved to be helpful in improving safety ratings. Interestingly, both ANCAP and Suzuki have kept silence about these changes/updates made in the vehicle. Despite these changes, the price of Australia-Spec Swift remains the same.
According to the information we have, these safety updates are included in the Swift sold since September 2025. The official website of the Australian Encap confirms that the new rating applies to all variants, except base-spec GL. The hatchback contains dual front, side chest and side cutting airbags (which occur for safety of passengers during the collision) come as standard fitments. Center airbags have not been given among the front passengers.

The updated Swift scored 26.87 out of 40 in the Adult Occupant Protection Test – which is about 67% safety. It got 3.52/8 marks in the frontal offset test, 5.51/6 in side impact test and in the Obluge Poll Test. In the Child Occupant Protection Test, it got 32.28 out of 49. Safety was judged 65% here. The vehicle scored 8.51 points out of 16 in the front dynamic test and 5.54/8 in the side dynamic test. Valnarbal Road user protection was higher at 76%, as the vehicle scored 48 out of 63.
