Suzuki is more than just a motorcycle manufacturer, and if there's one car that highlights this it's the Swift. Although it has come in many guises and forms over its history, it is in its most recent generation (third) that it really shines. Both the 1.2 petrol the 1.3 turbodiesel offer a drive mixing agile handling, good pace and affordability that few other superminis can match, while their cousin the Swift Sport is arguably the leading hot hatch option in today's market. It is still a supermini though, so its 211 litre boot can be an issue for some, but good cabin space, reliability and good run costs, means that it is a sensible car with bags of fun.
The Suzuki Swift is a small car with a big personality. The looks are quite polarising, but if you like it, then it’s a great car to own and drive, with a nimble chassis and a lively mild-hybrid powertrain. While not the most luxurious or high-tech in the segment, the Swift’s honest approach, low running costs and immense character give it a unique appeal.
