Hi just wanted to share my experience of buying a swift. Last year i went on a hunt to buy a swift with just a budget of 2L, i was looking for a 2007-09 model(with G13B engine). after 2-3 months of looking, i found this 2012 Swift(K12) VXI at a very good deal for a 2.5L that too with showroom track record and just 34k kms it had factory set of tires and everything the car ticked every box but it had a issue of rusting on doors. with a very heavy heart and advices i decided to go for it. The estimates i got for changing doors were 12k for panels and 10k for paint (I'm thinking to get it all painted in a different color). 1 year of ownership and im shocked to see how it performs even now. It easily pulls up to 130kmph!(it can go further too🙃) and the service spare parts are cheap and easy to source. I havent tested the mileage yet but its good as i just fill it once a month and it goes above 400-450kms before the guage is near to Empty. aftermarket support is fantastic. Its truly a good beginner car imo. Im not a big fan of brakes though. The interior of this model doesnt feel outdated as such its modern and classic also it has ample space inside compared to other generations.
Thank you very much for your detailed video...am a swift dzire zxi owner...12 yrs and 66500 kms now. Your video is a testimony to the excellent performance and trouble free ownership the car has given me. Don't want to part with it, despite my purchase of a replacement car (Honda City ZX CVT) last year.. I love my Swift Dzire still ❤❤.
Good video, feels like a lot of leg work for first time car buyer, I will prefer buying new Alto K10 over this buying used cars seems like a good option for someone who knows a lot about cars.
@@evoIndia absolutely right.. the driving dynamics of swift is much better.. bcoz of higher centre of gravity the ritz has a fare bit of body roll.. the steering is heavier than the swift bt it has excellent feedback..
Hello Sir, I really appreciate the work you doing...this Video is really informative for second hand car buyers and specially for New people interested in second had cars... Can you please comment on Swift 2012 Automatic varient? I am confused weather I go with Automatic or manual... thank You in advance 😊
I believe the auto was only available on the dzire, but I might be wrong. In any case it was the 4-speed torque converter which is known to be super reliable.
Wonderfuly informative video. Thank you for making and sharing this! Really makes me feel like I can buy a second hand car now without feeling that it might be a lemon 😂
Don't take unsafe cars even as a freebie. Just learned about an accident where the driver's legs bone (femur) came out tearing flesh. The vehicle was crossing at a slow pace to avoid reversing truck and due to night condition it struck with a tree.
Which one should we feature next?
Toyota Innova! 2005 - 2015
Skoda Rapid/VW Vento
SX4 Pls
4x4 cars on a budget.
Honda Brio!
Just get the Ritz for 2.5L with the same engine and gearbox. Arguably even better built
very true!
I had a Ritz for 12 years very recently sold it...Indeed it's a wonderful car.
The mileage in the city is actually lower than the Swift. Owned a Ritz ZXI for about 7 years.
True, maybe we revisit the Ritz at some point
Better buy ignis
My dad bought me a 2023 swift.. really thankful to him for this gift.
Congratulations

It's really hard to find 1st or 2nd gen Swift with Diesel engine, because The diesel Swift is already very driven, more than 1.5L km. Used a lot
That's true
Actually nobody wants to sell it
I own Swift dzire Vdi 2015 model clocked 2 lakh plus on odo still going strong with regular service done at authorized service center.
Awesome!
If ur swift has a VDi badge on its tailgate.... its a beast..
😅

Please make this type of video on maruti suzuki ciaz
Thanks for the suggestion
Yeah especially diesel
I though this video would just be a bunch of very obvious advice. But turns out it is very useful!!! Great effort guyz. Need more videos like this!!
Glad it was helpful! More such videos coming soon. Stay tuned
How about crossovers? Ecosport and Brezza are options that come to mind.
Yes absolutely 👍🏻
Would really like to know about the older generation (Dicor - Varicor) Tata Safari both 2WD and 4WD.
Good idea 👍🏻
Good video, feels like a lot of leg work for first time car buyer, I will prefer buying new Alto K10 over this buying used cars seems like a good option for someone who knows a lot about cars.
I appreciate the good work done by evo India. Just the right information to get me educated for buying a swift.
Thanks 👍🏻
Thanks :)
17 inch wheels on a swift in india on our roads sounds like terrible idea.
Depends on what your priorities are but it would be pretty hard to live with
What about 17 inch tyres on seltos for better ride handling?
Make a video on the VW Polo, Honda Jazz(gen 1), Ford Ecosport and Ford Figo
We will 👍🏻
We shall do that. Thanks for the suggestion
Love the idea of this series! Please make a video on Honda City.
Coming soon 👍🏻
Video drops soon. Stay tuned
Great idea for a series! A quick one on the diesel too please.... 😅
Thanks Chirag. We will try to do one on the diesel as well.
Please make a used car guide for the Elite i20
please suggest me good garage were I can maintain my car in pune
And now,what is best for a minor, a mh410?a 6R?a nd?a e90?
If the outer diameter of the tyre is changed due to larger rims the speedometer and odometer readings may change also.
You compensate by having lower profile tyres
Wow, Most useful series in a Bike/Car Review Channel. Thank you guys for making our decisions easy.
Happy to help! :)
swift 2015 zxi 47k run is worth for 5.2L pls help the car is from true value
A Ritz can be a very sensible alternative.. same swift platform & engeneering.. & the best part is that it comes at a lot cheaper price..
The Ritz is a very good alternative if you are looking for more interior volume. However, the Swift wins on the enthusiast scale
@@evoIndia absolutely right.. the driving dynamics of swift is much better.. bcoz of higher centre of gravity the ritz has a fare bit of body roll.. the steering is heavier than the swift bt it has excellent feedback..
Please make a video on Honda Jazz
Sure, we will!
Any Honda or sedan would do
We have one on the Honda City coming up soon! Stay tuned

Thank you Sir for your Advice, it's 2012 dezire...I will definitely consider your feedback...
Glad you enjoyed the video.

Brooo Swift 2012 looks gorgeous.
That was a good detailed explanation 😃
Thank you 👍🏻
Glad it was helpful!
need more of these
Loved your voice and flow ❤
Thank you so much
@@len.dsa88 welcome sir🎈😊
Better to buy Ignis
High GC
Price lower than swift
Same engine with gearbox
Its Second hand bruv..you aint getting a ignis for that price anywhere in the country,,& the ballpark being less than 3lakhs
Red under oil filler is deal braker
Sir Is it worth to buy swift vxi 2017 model for 440k driven only 40k kms ...
It will entirely depend on the condition of the particular car in question. Best is to take it to a nearby service centre for a thorough check
I have 2017 swift VDI......what a car men.........Engine Beast.....2nd gen.....interior is ok ok
current swift is thik thaak
Diesel is best❤
Also consider Wagon R
Old gen celerio is better than wagonr, new gen celerio is just mileage machine.
Okay
At 0.19 sec you are saying 8 yr old swift and the 4th generation Swift gave the same engine! What a mess!!!
😂
I'm obviously referring to the 2nd and 3rd gen that I have in front of me. Sorry for not spelling it out for you
FYI 4 gen has a 3 cylinder engine
Get the sx4 instead. Better build, more space and dynamics and costs less because people doesn't know what it is.
Maruti is always a good option❤
thanks
I 20.... should be next on the list
Which generation did you have in mind?
Diesel?
Thanks for the suggestion
Do more videos like this
We will! 👍🏻
More such videos coming soon!
Now just with the latest shitty 3 Cylinder Swift am sure demand for these will surge.
DDIS 🔥

Don't take unsafe cars even as a freebie. Just learned about an accident where the driver's legs bone (femur) came out tearing flesh. The vehicle was crossing at a slow pace to avoid reversing truck and due to night condition it struck with a tree.
Dont buy swift to be honest because a lot of meter roll back are there in india for swift
👍
