No doubt Swift diesel is great value for money...with amazing pickup.0-100kmph in just 13 seconds....makes it faster on road.Its a great car for normal safe driving...with v gud mileage in Diesel....17-18 in local driving n 20 plus on highways...-now the major problem.... normally the power steering of the cars work til 60kmph speeds or so..after that it becomes harder...as in the case of Zen (power steering) But in swift this is not the case....at high speeds beyond 100kmph, the power steering remains in power mode...n that makes it very responsive and very unsafe. just a small force..makes it turn so much.
I’m writing this all after my accident in Swift due to power steering. I dont wanna say that it wz due to the car...but the driver who wz driving the car..it ws his fault.....but just with small tilt of steering by the driver...the car lost balance at 140kmph.....cuz it wz in power steering mode......so guys...this car is great in all aspects...but if ya want to drive fast on highways.....then dont go for this car....its really not safe...handling wise at high speed. and the worst thing...Maruti provides such shitty tyres......ya must get broader tyres installed on this car to drive fast.
