Suzuki Swift

Owner verdict (Driver Power 2010):

Japanese superminis have a reputation for being dull to drive yet impeccably built, but the Swift’s Driver Power ratings turn that theory on its head!

A score of 22nd in the handling class will be music to the ears of chassis boffins; a result of 85th for build is a very poor result.

You also told us performance is well above average, though the bone-shaking ride needs improving.

Overall owner rating :
81.42% (79th overall in Driver Power 2010)
Owners who would buy a Swift again:
69%
Owners who would buy another Suzuki again:
