The Suzuki Swift 2008

The Suzuki Swift got a new upgrade in its 2008 version. Among the new features we can see a new 1.2L engine, a CVT gearbox and other small upgrades. The changes in the looks department for the Suzuki Swift 2008 include better bumpers, new grille and turning signals on the mirrors. In the interior the new Suzuki Swift got better trim levels. On the engine side its got altered gear ratios for the Sport version.

I think it will be some time before we see these changes in the models here in Europe, but hey, it will show up eventually. The changes in this 2008 Suzuki Swift are minor, but better then nothing I guess. Still, me buying my own version couple months ago was a good decision in the end. This upgrade was not worth the wait to have this Suzuki Swift in my garage. Been extremely satisfied with it so far.

Indian Suzuki Swift will get a diesel version

Just heard news that Maruti Suzuki Swift will get a new engine in the following period, a diesel one. Also the production of engines for the Suzuki Swift in India will be tripled in the next period. Good news for the Suzuki Swift fans in that area. Having a diesel version really counts when you’re trying to attract more people to buy your car. Better fuel consumption, better acceleration when starting the car and more advantages.

The engines used for the indian Suzuki Swift will be of Fiat origin, 1.3 liter diesels, made under license. Another good news for Maruti will be that the diesel engines they will make will also be exported to Suzuki Swift Hungary to be used there also. So this new diesel version will also be seen on the European roads. Looking forward to maybe buy a diesel Suzuki Swift sometime in the future when I can afford it.

Suzuki Swift - number one in New Zealand

Great news for the Suzuki Swift fans out there. The Suzuki Swift was declared the best selling supermini in New Zealand for the year 2006. Not only that, but its the second year that our favorite car has managed to win in this segment, and a clear winner too. The total number of Suzuki Swift cars sold in New Zealand in 2006 was 2,060, while Honda only managed 1,916 with their Jazz model and Toyota Yaris only 1,795. Overall, the Suzuki Swift was the sixth best sold car in New Zealand in 2006, with a market share of 4%.
Its biggest advantages were its high quality and the performance on the road. If you compare the Suzuki Swift sales from December 2006 to those of the same month in 2005 you will notice that they sold 14% more, and that’s another big win for them. Another factor that helped with the sales was the launch of the Suzuki Swift Sport in the last quarter of 2006, which provided a huge boost in sales. The Suzuki Swift that is sold in New Zealand is imported from Japan, one of the four countries where this car is made. The price in New Zealand for the Suzuki Swift starts at $19,400.
Well done Suzuki and keep it up!
