The Black SZ3 I eventually bought was found to be a very nice drive. Very responsive steering and good handling, suspension firm but comfortable, “needs to be with potholes everywhere”. £35 road Tax helps😀, my last 23yr old car was £315🤨. All good now👍

Fantastic small car, I would compare it to the mini but it is better. Great all round vision, well balanced & great spec.

Suzuki Swift (2024-present) Pros and Cons
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Fun to drive | Not as cheap as it once was |
| Low running costs | Small boot for the supermini class |
| Well equipped as standard | Rivals offer more passenger space |
Quick Summary
The Suzuki Swift (2024-present) is a straightforward, petrol-powered supermini offering genuine driving enjoyment combined with low running costs and comprehensive standard equipment. Now in its fourth generation, it uses the same platform as its predecessor but benefits from a refreshed design and improved infotainment system. With a 1.2-litre, three-cylinder naturally aspirated engine producing 82bhp, the Swift delivers a sprightly driving experience through well-weighted steering and agile handling. Available with either a five-speed manual or CVT automatic gearbox, plus an optional all-wheel-drive AllGrip system, it achieves an impressive 64.2mpg officially and over 52mpg in real-world driving thanks to its lightweight construction and mild hybrid system.
Both Motion and Ultra trim levels come generously equipped with heated seats, air-conditioning, rear parking sensors, reversing camera, and a 9.0-inch touchscreen with integrated satnav and smartphone integration. The Swift's main limitation is its smaller-than-average boot at 265 litres (589 litres with rear seats folded), and notably high insurance groupings of 25-28, which is unusual for an 82bhp supermini. Despite these drawbacks, the Swift represents an excellent choice for those prioritising dynamic driving, efficiency, and standard equipment over maximum interior space.
Best for: Drivers seeking a fun, efficient supermini with excellent standard equipment, low running costs, and engaging handling characteristics.
Not ideal for: Those requiring maximum boot space, young drivers concerned about insurance costs, or buyers needing a no-frills budget option.
Comparison vs Key Rivals
| Vehicle | CarGurus Expert Rating | CarGurus User Rating | Good/Great deals % | Overall CarGurus Rating |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Suzuki Swift | 4/5 | 4.8/5 | 35.4% | 4.4/5 |
| Dacia Sandero | 3/5 | 4.8/5 | 34.1% | 4.1/5 |
| Skoda Fabia | 4/5 | 4.7/5 | 34.7% | 4.5/5 |
| Vauxhall Corsa | 3/5 | 4.5/5 | 45.5% | 4.3/5 |
The Verdict
You should buy the Swift if: You prioritise dynamic driving enjoyment, low running costs, and comprehensive standard equipment, and can accept a smaller boot than some rivals.
Consider alternatives if: You require maximum interior and boot space, are a young driver concerned about insurance costs, or need a no-frills budget option.
Competitive Position: The Suzuki Swift (2024-present) is a standout performer in the supermini segment, offering the best balance of driving dynamics, efficiency, and standard equipment. Whilst the Skoda Fabia edges ahead on overall rating and the Vauxhall Corsa offers better value deals, the Swift's superior driving experience and well-equipped specification make it an excellent choice for those seeking more than just basic transport. The Dacia Sandero undercuts on price but lacks the Swift's refinement and engagement. For buyers who value fun, efficiency, and quality equipment over maximum space, the Swift is genuinely one of the best superminis available today.
