Great performance cars these Suzukis. My current 2018 Swift sport 1.4L work commuter got me 88000kms from the original Continental tyres, has 136000kms on the clock and is only half-way through its front brake pads and routinely averages 6.4L per 100kms. Never missed a beat, very reliable. Now that is what I rate as great performance from a daily city driver.
I own this car and it must have different specs in what part of the Empire you reside in. Mine has the driver monitoring system. The manual handbrake is far far superior to any electronic handbrake. A manual handbrake is not going to leave you stranded whereas an electronic one will. To me a manual handbrake is a selling point.
It's nice but a 60kw engine and 110nm is terrible. You may as well buy a base i30 or a Cerato for not much more money and you nearly twice the power and more space.
Nice evolution of a great car, The previous model had the rear door handles concealed in the C piller, going back to a standard layout removes some design flair
You dont like manual hand brake its much better than electric hand brake not much to go wrong electric hand brakes electric calipers are trouble and expensive to replace i am a mechanic 40 years suzuki are very reliable i have serviced many but thats is it only serviced they never need any other work
Just ordered one. Was looking for small.manual. Not much choice. Did test drive and also a auto. All autos were dogs as they lack decent trasmission. And are built down to a price.. The Mazda 2 is very stale and a bad drive and i like our mazda 3. The 2 was a terrible on the road and how they sell surprises me. People musnt test drive them? . The suzuki has some flaws mostly from cost cutting eg 2 speakers, bsm, side mirror and other features like park brake, rear drums, no driver height adj but drives really really well. Its zippy and drives tightly with a smooth ride. Light and tight. made in japan to japanese standards too. They have done a good job to make it seem less plsstic with dual tone interior. Sest colour for manual is also better than grey on other models. Now to buy alloys as the cheap wheels look disgraceful.
Gotta laugh at these reviewers. eg. the steering wheel is almost the same as before, the electronics are a little slow. I wonder does he really think about what he says, it is a small car mate. $24,990 driveaway is a winner in my books.
What a weird review, Wanting it to have something different in the cluster like a full digital display, sir, thats what everything else has. Manual handbrake is way better than the electronic one for longevity. Driver alert system delete is a blessing
Its engine is a big minus and it will lose sales with this power. I live in Greece and am seriously thinking about buying this car. I saw it and I liked it. But unfortunately I haven't seen it circulated much yet. Will it sell? Among so many turbocharged cars already on the market. What luck will have such a sluggish 82hp engine? They should have put a more powerful hybrid and let it have fewer safety systems. Here in Greece, they will certainly not prefer such a slow car........
