Exclusive: Maruti WagonR & Swift Get Front Armrest As Official Accessory | V3Cars

Maruti Suzuki are now offering front centre armrest for the older Swift (2018 - 2024) and WagonR as an official accessory. The Swift’s armrest costs Rs. 2,990 while the WagonR’s costs Rs. 2,890. The armrest is padded and also has a small storage. Because of the narrower body of the WagonR, there’s limited space between the front seats and the WagonR’s armrest accessory is narrower than that of the Swift’s. Unlike some 3rd party aftermarket armrest accessories, this one doesn’t intrude with the operation of the handbrake.

If you haven't extensively driven a car with a front centre armrest, we highly recommend that you do so. A well-positioned and long armrest makes a world of difference in driving comfort even in a manual transmission car. If you have a Swift or a WagonR, you should absolutely get this accessory as it carries a reasonable asking price. Do note that the Swift’s armrest is available only for the previous generation Swift. So, if you own the older Swift, you can get this accessory.
