Eventually, Pak Suzuki had to discontinue the Cultus VXL trim in order to boost sales of Swift, and it worked. In 2011-12 Swift reached its highest sales ever selling more than 7,000 units in a fiscal year but then sales started to show a decline.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.carspiritpk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/SwiftPK.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-9872 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carspiritpk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/SwiftPK.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"820\" height=\"400\" title=\"\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Today the Swift sells at an average of just around 350 units a month which is hopeless for a Pak Suzuki hatchback. The newly launched Celerio <em>(say Cultus)<\/em> is enjoying monthly sales of 1,585 units which is three times more than that of Swift. The WagonR also shows a healthy average of 2,356 units per month which is the second highest after Suzuki Mehran.
