Latest Information on Suzuki Swift
The Suzuki Swift came to be in 1985 as a marketing and manufacturing rebadge of the Suzuki Cultus, available in overseas markets. The ever-popular Suzuki Swift offers a tidy package with added driving dynamics. Light as a feather with crisp steering and a rigid chassis, the Swift is unexpectedly fun and easy to drive. The 1.2-litre petrol engine is willing and able in the Swift, but if you’re always in a hurry there are also 1.4- and 1.6-litre engines to choose from. It has a fair bit of road and engine noise though, so do pay attention when you take one for a test drive.
