The Japanese company is
inviting potential customers from the Japanese market to express their interest
ahead of the official debut of the all-new Suzuki Swift Sport at the Frankfurt
Motor Show.
The new photos are giving us a better look at the
new Japanese hot hatch, revealing details like the twin exhaust pipes that are
incorporated with what looks like a rear diffuser and lots of interior
features.
These include a set of sports seats along with the
confirmation of a six-speed manual gearbox and a spiced-up dashboard that
features red detailing and a flat-bottom sports steering wheel. The instrument cluster also hosts a red
rev-counter while the color display in there comes with a boost gauge. The new Swift Sport has ditched the naturally aspirated
1.6-liter unit for Suzuki’s latest turbocharged 1.4-liter Boosterjet unit which
makes 138 Hp and 220 Nm of torque under the bonnet of the Suzuki
Vitara.
Reports suggest that the boosted pocket rocket will
tip the scales at an exceptionally low 870 kg, which -if true- will
give it a very impressive power-to-weight ratio of 159 hp per ton. Suzuki plans
to lift the wraps off the new Swift Sport at the Frankfurt Motor Show on
September 12.
