The Suzuki Swift is now in its third generation. And while it might not compete with the likes of the Vauxhall Corsa when it comes to sales, we still rate it as a thoroughly likeable - and highly recommendable - small car. Even more so now that Suzuki has launched its Service Activated Warranty, which tops up the manufacturer warranty to seven years and 100,000 miles provided you have the car serviced within the Suzuki dealer network.
A lot of what's great about the Swift comes down to its low kerb weight. This is a small car that weighs under 1,000kg, which is almost unheard of in 2023. And so while it makes do with just 82bhp from it's 1.2-litre petrol engine, it actually feels more sprightly than you might expect, and is also capable of delivering 55mpg or more.
In this CarGurus UK review, Chris Knapman explains how the Swift stacks up for space, quality, infotainment, running costs and driving dynamics. As Chris explains, while the Swift might not be the best small car on sale, it could just be the most underrated.

Pros
Funky looks stand out from the crowd
Enjoyable to drive
Generously equipped, even at the bottom of the range
Cons
Surprisingly costly to insure
Interior quality is a weakness of pre-facelift cars
Not as much fun as a Ford Fiesta
The CarGurus verdict
A stylish and thoroughly well-engineered little hatchback, the Suzuki Swift offers good value for money, strong standard kit count (even at the lower reaches of the model range) and fun and engaging handling. The performance-oriented Swift Sport Hybrid in particular is really entertaining to drive. What’s more, the Swift is a tough car that will prove dependable over time, while Suzuki itself has a good reputation for putting right any reliability issues that do arise quickly and efficiently.
The one area where caution is advised concerns insurance costs. The Swift sits in relatively high insurance groups regardless of specification, meaning potential buyers should do some homework before committing to buying one. That one point aside, the Swift is a very likeable, reliable and well-equipped little hatchback that should prove to be a joy both to drive and own.
