Maruti Suzuki has expanded its CNG lineup with the introduction of automatic S-CNG variants of the Swift, Dzire and Baleno<\/strong> in India. The new versions combine the brand\u2019s factory-fitted S-CNG technology with a 5-speed Auto Gear Shift (AGS)<\/strong> transmission, offering clutch-free driving convenience for buyers who primarily drive in busy city traffic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prices for the new automatic CNG models start at \u20b97.29 lakh for the Swift S-CNG<\/strong>, while the Baleno S-CNG AMT is priced from \u20b98.32 lakh<\/strong> and the Dzire S-CNG AMT starts at \u20b98.53 lakh<\/strong>. All prices are ex-showroom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this introduction, Maruti Suzuki is targeting buyers who want the running-cost advantage of CNG but do not want to deal with a manual gearbox during daily urban commutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maruti Suzuki Automatic S-CNG: Prices and Mileage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Here is a quick look at the prices and claimed fuel efficiency of the three new models:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Model<\/th>Starting Price (Ex-showroom)<\/th>Claimed CNG Efficiency<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
Maruti Suzuki Swift S-CNG AMT<\/strong><\/td>\u20b97.29 lakh<\/td>35.34 km\/kg<\/td><\/tr>
Maruti Suzuki Baleno S-CNG AMT<\/strong><\/td>\u20b98.32 lakh<\/td>34.47 km\/kg<\/td><\/tr>
Maruti Suzuki Dzire S-CNG AMT<\/strong><\/td>\u20b98.53 lakh<\/td>36.47 km\/kg<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Dzire S-CNG AMT<\/strong> has the highest claimed fuel efficiency among the three models at 36.47 km\/kg. The Swift and Baleno return 35.34 km\/kg and 34.47 km\/kg, respectively, according to Maruti Suzuki’s claimed figures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1.2-litre Engine With 5-speed AMT<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

All three automatic CNG models are powered by Maruti Suzuki’s 1.2-litre Z12E petrol engine<\/strong>. The engine gets technologies such as Dual Variable Valve Timing (Dual VVT)<\/strong> and Idle Start Stop (ISS)<\/strong>, with the CNG powertrain paired with a 5-speed AGS transmission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The automated manual transmission operates the clutch and gear shifts automatically, making the cars easier to drive in stop-and-go traffic. Drivers can also manually select gears when required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This combination is particularly relevant for buyers in cities where heavy traffic and frequent clutch operation can make a conventional manual transmission tiring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Automatic Convenience Meets CNG Running Costs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Until now, buyers looking for a factory-fitted CNG car with an automatic transmission had relatively limited options in the mass-market segment. With the Swift, Dzire and Baleno, Maruti Suzuki is extending this combination across three popular models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company says the new range has been introduced under its ‘Auto Green Mission’<\/strong>, which focuses on combining automatic driving convenience with improved fuel efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The move also comes as CNG continues to gain popularity among Indian car buyers looking for lower running costs. Maruti Suzuki claims that its S-CNG sales grew by 58% year-on-year during the first quarter<\/strong>, while the company recorded its highest-ever monthly S-CNG sales of 83,000 units in July.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maruti Suzuki S-CNG Technology<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The S-CNG system uses an intelligent injection system designed to optimise air-fuel delivery. Maruti Suzuki has also incorporated several components specifically designed for its factory-fitted CNG vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These include stainless-steel pipes and joints, integrated wiring harnesses and a microswitch that prevents the engine from starting while CNG is being refuelled<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The factory-fitted setup also means the CNG hardware is integrated into the vehicle rather than being installed as an aftermarket kit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Automatic CNG Models Available in Select Variants<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The new automatic S-CNG powertrain will be offered on select variants of the Swift, Dzire and Baleno<\/strong>. This gives customers the option to choose between the convenience of an automatic transmission and the lower running costs associated with CNG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For buyers spending most of their time in urban traffic, the new range could offer a combination of automatic convenience, factory-fitted CNG technology and high claimed fuel efficiency<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With these three models, Maruti Suzuki has further expanded its automatic CNG portfolio and brought the technology to some of its most popular models in the Indian market.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
