The best car on a budget
Mail & Guardian
|M&G 25 April 2025
We normally get to pricing at the end of a review but, since we are talking about budget, it is important to explain why the new Suzuki Swift is really the best economy option in South Africa at the moment.
It comes in five variants: the base 1.2 GL manual, a 1.2 GL+ manual or CVT and a 1.2 GLX manual (the one we tested) or CVT.
The base starts at R219900 and the GL+ and GLX models are priced at R264900 and R284900.
The change in shape of the new model has caused a stir among Swift lovers. It looks more compact, the Suzuki badge has been moved from the grille to the new clamshell bonnet, which sports shut lines. It looks like a bug but feels refreshed.
It is as if Suzuki has given the consumer a brand-new vehicle from the first look, rather than just an update of the previous model.
And that is just the beginning. The interior has also been changed for the better.
