Harry we have a prev gen car which is slightly prettier but have test driven this model a couple of times, they drive very well everything works with a nice japanese quality, cheaper trim gets very nesrly everything on the Ultra you drove qualify for Blue light card? Then you csn drive one away for £15100 given the alternatives its a very compelling snall car and worth checking out if you have not sold your soul to EVs.

I didn't know you could get a blue light discount on cars. I do like EVs but they don't compete in this price bracket, I can't think of one I would actually own that retails for less than 35k. In this price bracket I would have a long think about the MG3 and the Dacia Sandero, this is definitely the most engaging to drive of the three though

Check out forces cars direct not that I would use them (£200 fee for making a phone call) but the website shows pricing and as far as I know the dealers will all sort out the admin. The cruise would not engage above an indicated 70 on our test drive so a bit of a deal breaker though £15100 for tge motion was really tempting but I am weak getting one of the old shape remaining sports in stock.

I saw a few reviews from people about your length who had much more room when they sat behind themselves, and they were more positive about the position in the back although there is not much luxury.

Have you considered that they might be insecure about their height so lie about it

@DavidBright-q7l Ай бұрын

The gearbox is better it rides better it's quieter the engine responds better even though it's not as powerful

@BuckleUpShow Ай бұрын

The gearbox could still use some work though

I have the previous model SZ5 Mild Hybrid with 1.0L 3 cyl Boosterjet Engine which has 109bhp. Got to say very underwhelmed by the new model, it just looks lie a facelift of my car. Slightly different at the front, and the tail lamps slightly different as well. Interior is almost identical apart from the larger infotainment screen. Overall the car is not that much different. The main disappointment is the engine only delivering a measly 81bhp, don't get me wrong I love my Swift, but to release a new model almost identical with a lesser powered engine that is so much slower is a backwards step by Suzuki. BTW having now had a test drive in the new model some weeks back I can confirm it is like a snail on valium compared to The 1.0 SZ5 Boosterjet Engine, I was actually shocked at how much slower it was. Again I absolutely love my current Swift as it has everything, but current owners will be massively put off by a ridiculous loss in performance of a so called new model,and many like myself will not purchase this 'clone' of the previous model with a woefully underpowered engine.

Hopefully Suzuki realises how their current owners feel and add some more powerful engine options

for people over 180cm its like a 2 seater with additional seats..

Yes, much like literally all other small cars

Na we have the previous gen car it's fine for me at 184cm maybe if you were long legged then buy bigger class of car we have Jazz its vast for a small car.

@BuckleUpShow Ай бұрын

As the driver you will be comfy, like with almost any car. The issue you have is rear seat leg room when the driver is tall.
