Compare New Swift 2011 VDI versus Punto Emotion Pack

Updated on September 6, 2011

If we compare Punto with New Swift, then except for better build quality and exterior styling, Punto has nothing which can make things fall for it. It is no more spacious than Swift, in fact Swift has the best front seats in the business. Punto is no more powerful than Swift and gets outclassed in flat out acceleration, in gear acceleration, city drivability, it has better looking interiors but not better plastic for sure, as Fiat itself has accepted that it is not satisfied with the plastic quality and is in the process of screwing vendors to improve things. Service network of Fiat in front of Maruti is a point better not discussed as it is a waste of time. Nothing can match Maruti on network and cost of ownership.

Punto can hold a candle to Swift only in looks, handling and can better on build quality. Everywhere else, Swift 2011 betters it and with the new Swift, gap will only increase, as new Swift has better build with better handling so only looks will remain and that is a personal choice.

Comparing the 75HP MJDs of Punto and Swift, the Swift is a better choice

Though the 90 BHP Punto is much improved over the 75 BHP version, the New Swift still outperforms it in flat out acceleration. It is the in-gear acceleration where the Punto gains its crown again from Swift. And yes, 90 BHP version takes a toll on fuel efficiency so in reality, you gain only in terms of in-gear acceleration compared to Swift but lose on fuel efficiency further down the road.
