Car Profiles - Suzuki Swift

SUZUKI SWIFT

Don't let the looks fool you, the Swift is a bit longer than the previous one. A 1.2 engine is now available to target the Mirage and surprisingly has enough kit for the price. There's the tight rear seat, and also the fun to drive moments.

The Good: A delight to drive

The Bad: Not the roomiest back seat out there

Price Range: P658,000-P698,000
