Suzuki Swift Road Test Reports and Car Reviews

Suzuki Swift

The sharp handling and punchy engine do justice to the sporty looks and it's so well built that you can expect to see little of the dealer. A fun and really affordable supermini.

Suzuki Swift 2009

5 star review

I bought my first Suzuki swift in 2006 (Diesel). It was such a fantastic car with good driving experience. Did any one drive this car under 3 years time up to 100000 miles? I did. When I was selling the car it was already completed 98000miles. What is the next car I bought? No question - another Swift 1.3 diesel. Why? I can trust this car to take from Cambridge to Aberdeen just taking a single break. No back ache no other problems. Apart from normal oil changing and oil filter changing I paid one time changing my wiper. That is the extra I spent for my car. I never had any problem with this car even though I drive in different climate conditions all over the country. The new auto volume controlled CD player supporting Mp3 and leather steering with additional place for hide to keep luggage in the luggage area and after all a very silent car made my choice second time also brilliant. Within 3 months I completed 11000+ miles. I would say It is a nice small car but good also for journeys like Cambridge to Aberdeen.

4 star review

Had this little gem for over 12 months now and love it to bits. Great all-round drive and very well built. I actually live in France, northern Alps and it’s great on the twisting roads, great in the snow also (with snow tyres). Nippy when it needs to be and very economic, over 720kms on a nearly full tank. For me, it’s the best in it’s class as I tried a few other small cars before deciding on the Swift.

4 star review

Had the car for about 1 month now, overall very happy. Only 4 stars because the one problem we do have is the quietness of the indicators, if for any reason the indicators do not cancel automatically the beeping noise is so quiet you cannot hear it on a lot of road conditions. I’ve nearly had 2 accidents because of this, has anyone else come across this problem? I rang Suzuki direct and they told me it was the relay, I asked if these cars could be recalled to have a louder relay fitted before a accident occurred and was told in no uncertain terms they could not. I also spoke to the dealer I purchased the car from, the lady there told me she herself as come across this problem and had several other customers mention this problem to her - an accident waiting to happen?

Suzuki Swift 1.5 GLX 5 Door 2007

4 star review

Had the car for almost a year now and I like it as much now as I did when I bought it. It has proved to be a good travelling companion. The 1.5 engine is a cracker with ample for most situations, it handles extremely well; it is comfortable and returns excellent mpg. So far over the year, according to the average fuel consumption indicator in the car it is returning 40.8 mpg. On a recent trip to North Yorkshire I worked it out manually and it returned just over 44 mpg. The reason I have marked it down to 4 stars is that there is an annoying rattle in the dash on cooler days that my local Suzuki dealer does not seem able to rectify. If it wasn’t for that it would have been a definite 5 star.

Great car to drive, you can drive this car with pride. Great price and a very comfortable place to be! Only my second car and i was very happy that dad gave it his seal of approval! I haven’t had it too long but so so good!! Only reason i would give it a bad review is so that the road doesn’t have one on every corner!

5 star review

This is a FUN car. It’s aptly named and you get plenty of power under the hood. It looks nice and sporty and comes well equipped. Amazing amount of car for the money and surprisingly cheap to run. I couldn’t give this any less than 5 out of 5. Really excellent car.
