New Suzuki Swift Sport Launched in South Africa





Suzuki has launched the Swift Sport in South Africa and comes with extra power and revised styling. The Suzuki Swift Sport has larger fog light bezels, a larger grille, high-intensity discharge (HID) headlights, side spoilers and rides on 16” multi-spoked alloy rims

Differentiating features on the rear end include dual tail pipes, metallic grey diffuser and tailgate spoiler. On the inside the Swift Sport exhibits chrome or stainless steel finishes with red accents. The front seats have added side padding for extra support and have a ‘Sport’ logo embroidered in red. Standard features include air conditioning, electric power steering, power windows and side mirrors, six speaker audio system and keyless entry.



If you look under the hood you will find a four cylinder 1.6 litre engine that is capable of kicking out a nifty 100kW at 6900rpm with torque peaking at 160Nm at 4400rpm. The engine is mated to a six-speed manual transmission gearbox. CO2 emissions have been reduced to 153g/km and the Swift Sport can do the 100km/h sprint in 8.7 seconds, 0.2 seconds faster than its predecessor. The top speed for the Swift Sport is 195km/h.

The Swift Sport also sits 10mm lower than before and the body is built using more high tensile steel for extra rigidity and weighs 30kg less than the previous Suzuki Swift.

The Suzuki Swift Sport sells for a nice price of R213 900 and is backed by Suzuki’s Complete Package.
