MARKETING STRATEGY OF SWIFT
Maruti's strategy to launch the new model, even as sales of the older Swift were steady, is because competition in the segment is now hotter than ever before. The new Swift was launched first in Hungary last year. In the last few years, new models, such as the Nissan Micra, the Polo, the Fabia, the Toyota Etios Liva and the i20 have given the Indian customer a plethora of choices.
To retain its following, the new Swift promises to improve on the outgoing model by offering more value through higher features, increased mileage, a new design, more space and an all round improvement in quality. Meanwhile, it will play on advantages such as the lower cost of ownership of Maruti products, the brand goodwill and its huge sales and service network.
