New Suzuki Swift Announced

Go to: Previous Article Next Article

Suzuki has announced that the new Swift will be available in the UK from the autumn of this year. It is a little bigger than the old swift; an extra 90mm long, with a slightly larger wheelbase and is 10mm taller. However, it is still designed to appeal to drivers who are looking for a small, nippy, agile, environmentally friendly and economical car.

The look of the car has not changed much, the old and new versions look practically identical. This is probably a good thing, when you consider how good looking the current models are when compared with other small cars currently available in the UK.
The main changes are internal, especially in the engine.

The new Swift has a 1.2-litre petrol engine, which incorporates Dual VVT or variable intake and exhaust valve timing. The engine produces 94PS at 6,000 rpm, a little more than the old 1.3 litre engine. Torque is now 118Nm at 4,800 rpm. Its green credentials are excellent too, with CO2 emissions of only 116g/km for the manual version.

The Swift keeps its great economy credentials, with the manual version doing 56.5mpg on a combined cycle. That is an improvement of nearly 8mpg over the outgoing 1.3 Swift.

There will be a 1.3 diesel engine version released in the UK early in 2011. That too will be greener than its predecessor was emission levels will be just 109g/km of CO2. Fuel consumption on an urban cycle is also good at 67.3mpg. The old Swift DDiS could only achieve 62.8mpg, so again the new model will be even better than its predecessor.

The new Swifts will be built in Suzuki's Hungary plant, so the standard of build quality will stay high. Suzuki's new partnership with VW has not really affected the design of this new Swift, but future generations will certainly benefit even more from combining both companies expertise in designing and building super-minis.
