Suzuki Motor Corporation, Japan, issued a press release announcing that worldwide sales of Suzuki Swift have reached five million units. India accounts for 54% of that number, with 2.7 million units of Swift and Swift DZire sold so far. Launched in 2005, Maruti Suzuki Swift is loved and celebrated by millions of Indians. It has been a bestseller through the decade. It has surpassed its own records year after year. Swift’s attitude, performance and sporty looks have ensured it stays on top, undistracted by competition.
Swift has broken the myth of the so-called “big car features” by offering them in a compact car and along the way, creating a new upper A2 segment in the industry. This is quite a feat considering that the car has only been in production since 2004. The highest selling model car of all time is the Toyota corolla which has sold over 40 million units worldwide but has been in production since the 1960s.
