Road TestCar reviews - Suzuki - Swift - GL 5-dr hatchSuzuki modelsOverviewSafe, fun, economical and good value, Suzuki's Swift remains a cracking little car15 Apr 2011 IT MAY look the same, but the fourth-generation Swift is new in all the areas we had hoped for, particularly in terms of space, safety, refinement and comfort. , There is very little that is wrong with this Japanese urban runabout – even the smaller 1.4-litre engine is no problem in most situations. But don’t just take our word for it, take the GL five-speed manual as tested here for a drive, because we reckon it will make you think twice before buying that Ford Fiesta, Mazda2 or VW Polo. The Swift is right up there now. Just like the wildly underrated Kizashi, this is one Suzuki we did not want to return in a hurry.
