It cant compare with Swift though. The new i20 will be left to do that job. This is precise positoning below Swift. So i10 will take over Santro and the gap where Splash will be coming is now occupied by i10 1.2.
And Suzuki unfortunately cant bring that 1.2 engine available in splash internationally to india. It will cross that crucial limit of 1.2ltr capacity.
That 1.2 of Suzuki is 1242cc unit.

Looks like Suzuki will have tough time. They need splash with an excellent motor and hope that they dont end up giving that F10D from Wagon R.
