The new generation
Suzuki Swift is now arranging its UK market launch, from June 1. It comes with
a £ 10,999 starting price, which makes it £ 2,000 more
expensive than its predecessor, but comes with more standard features in
return.
Powered by the 90 PS and 120 Nm of
torque 1.2-liter Dualjet engine, the entry-level SZ3 comes loaded with LED
DRLs, 15-inch alloy wheels, leather-wrapped steering wheel, air conditioning,
and digital radio with Bluetooth.
Customers looking to upgrade have to pay at least
£ 12,999 for the SZ-T, which comes with a 1.0-liter engine rated at
111 PS and 170 Nm of torque, and adds 16-inch alloys, fog
lamps, 7-inch touchscreen display, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and MirrorLink.
The top-of-the-line SZ5 model can be had from
£ 14,499, and uses a mild hybrid system, with an Integrated Starter
Generation that acts as a starter motor and a generator. The equipment list
includes a 4.2-inch LCD display fitted between the analogue dials, forward
detection system, lane departure warning, high beam assist, and adaptive cruise
control, among others.
Suzuki also offers this version of the car with an
optional four-wheel drive system, but this only works together with the
1.2-liter engine.
