Suzuki Swift Car Reviews

I bought Swift DLX manual back in July 2011. Within the first month of its use, I experienced a tuk sound in low speeds and quick pick up. It was very annoying for me so i reported the same to My dealer (Suzuki Taxila Motors) from where I initially bought the car. I was told that it's the axle's fault. They reported the matter to the company. An authorized person (Mr. Ibrar)of Pak Suzuki for this region checked my car and said that its because of a pin in the gear box and that needs to be changed. so they lowered the gear box and changed tha... more

It was very annoying for me so i reported the same to My dealer (Suzuki Taxila Motors) from where I initially bought the car. I was told that it's the axle's fault. They reported the matter to the company. An authorized person (Mr. Ibrar)of Pak Suzuki for this region checked my car and said that its because of a pin in the gear box and that needs to be changed. so they lowered the gear box and changed that pin. the sound went off but only for a week. it came back and is there ever since.... Finally I was told try to live with it 'coz even the Japanese can't do anything about that......It really frustrates me!!!

So did anyone experience the same sound?? and found any cure for that??? plz respond!

Apart from that the car is Ok as far as its style and comfort is concerned. Fuel consumption is not that gud. Would give around 11 kmpl in local with AC and 14-15 KMPL on the highway. without AC the local average goes to around 12-13 kmpl and on highways from 15-16 kmpl.

Exterior: Its exterior is just superb. The looks of swift is damn hot from every angle. Motto of swift lived up to my expectations. "Feel Young Drive Young".

The only bad thing about it is low quality doors. They must have used good quality doors.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort): Its interior is also quite attractive with very nice 2din CD Player with 4 awesome speakers which have very good bass and sound quality.

The things which i wanted more are media buttons on steering, it would be too good to have. And l... more

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort): Its interior is also quite attractive with very nice 2din CD Player with 4 awesome speakers which have very good bass and sound quality.

The things which i wanted more are media buttons on steering, it would be too good to have. And less sound in cabin, but it is SUZUKI so we must know about it when we make our mind to bought it.

Front seats are little hard but its ok, Rear seats are very soft and it is quite comfortable at back to sit.

Fuel Economy: Fuel economy is good, its definitely not what people said. Within city with little bit ac it is giving me average between 11-15km/ltr, depending about driving style. But recommend people to change gear in btw 2-3K rpm.

Ride Quality & Handling: Swift has little hard suspension so the ride drives kind of sporty with excellent pickup and very good at cornering. But is quite rough on bad or bumpy roads due to hard suspension but it is not the cars fault, it thats the road are quite bad here.

Final Words: If anyone wants a brand new hatchback in the range of 1.3M then i will definitely recommend Suzuki Swift. Its the best bang for buck.

Exterior: The overall look is great

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort): Has excellent set of features, lots of buttons, everything automatic. Pak Suzuki however (compared to the international version) has removed ABS, indicator lamps from the side mirrors, Outside Temperature reading and Estimated Mileage reading from the Pakistani version of Swift.

Fuel Economy: 12 KMPL

Fuel Economy: 12 KMPL

Ride Quality & Handling: Ride quality is horrible on bumpy/damaged roads. Pak Suzuki is not fully doing there job when it comes to finishing. They probably don't even do a drive test before the car is made ready for delivery. You can spot a thousand problems in their brand new car, mostly mechanical issues. The inside of the doors are bare metal without any padding of sound absorbing materials etc. So they vibrate when you crank the volume up on your sound system. Also on bumps the ride gets too noisy. On smooth roads however the cabin is pretty quiet. Suspension is hard, but that gives you the advantage of good braking and good handling.

Final Words: It is for sure a lovable car. You can really feel the thrust with which the car moves when you push the accelerator all the way down. One reviewer mentioned that the car doesn't move above 120KMPH but this is because he couldn't really push the accelerator further down. I'm not sure whether this is a feature or not but accelerator pushes very easily until a point. Beyond that point you need to press it quite harder and that is the point when the car actually goes above 120KMPH. Build quality sucks big time, but the engine doesn't. I'm really enjoying my ride. less

Exterior:it is very beautiful and a cozy car with a impressive looks.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort):i think if they could give LCD also in DLX so it will be best but still the sound of 4 speakers are excellent and seats are also comfortable.

Fuel Economy:the consumption of fuel is also good if compared to other 1300cc cars.

Ride Quality & Handling:the road grip is superb and the engine is also very powerful and i think that this is the only suzuki car in pakistan with this type of powerful engine.

I have sold my vitz 2010 model and switch to Suzuki Swift 2012. Initially when I got the car it was horrible in fuel consumption. Build quality is fine but not like VITZ.

Problem: The body paint is of very bad quality and badly done, so silver and white color are preferable, in a zero meter car it is full of noises coming from interior and dashboard. Rear sears are not comfortable, low visibility and difficult to park in tight places.

Plus Points: After 5000km 2nd inspection the car is superb , great fuel consumption on petrol and GAS, 15km - 16km on petrol in city without A/C, and 220km on Gas with 55L cylinder without A/c,

Pick on gas is awesome even thought my car is automatic but there is no pickup issue. All sounds that are coming form interior are removed by Suzuki people at 1st and 2nd inspection for free.

suzuki has released a very nice machine for first time, that is swift. it has got style, engine is powerful, cabin is comfortable and quiet and a good AC, overall its a nice package. but compared to popular belief i want to clarify my brothers here that suzuki swift DX is not that awsome as it seems, against popular belief, it does not have keyless entry (after spending 12lac you dont even have this basic option), no ABS breaks, door knobs and side mirrors are black no matter what color your car is (imagine 12lac bucks spent and this!). no f... more

Well there is no doubt that this car is the best Suzuki has provided. I own this car and it has been good 18 months now, and without a doubt it’s a pleasure driving it every time. This car is a hit across the globe…you can watch reviews with world renowned brands on review forums such as Top Gear too.

I drive in dense traffic routes (Mauripur, Shershah etc)…and with A/C it gives me 11.5 to 12.5 km/ltr…you just need to watch your driving habits…a powerful engine will always consume more fuel if pushed hard. The only issue I see is th... more

The only issue I see is the ground distance, but then again, it’s not the car it’s the roads that need a fix.

Bottom-line, at this cost this is the best buy less

Please consider this review in response to end up this confusions regarding whether to by SWIFT or NOT?

I personally own this vehicle. The car is excellent on fuel, this gives 10-12KM in local and 15-17KM on long but it totally depends on how you accelerate the car and gear shifts the corresponds to RPM. This car is ultimate choice of the market and hot cash as well. Very power full engine and huge accelerating … I have done full meter (180 KM/H) in its 4th gear and the 5th gear is just to maintain economy. The car as very silent ca... more
