This is the Suzuki Swift Sport. A Japanese hot hatch that comes with a 1.4 - litre turbo under the bonnet, pumping 129 hp. The Swift SPORT is now a mild hybrid, the small electric motor will give you that extra shove as you start and as you drive. But is it enough for the Suzuki Swift Sport to compete with the likes of the Fiesta ST?

Swift SPORT or Fiest ST? Which one would YOU pick? Or perhaps something else?
Toyota GR Yaris 🥇
@@onthebuses Ha, I think I have to agree ;-)
Be different, go for this Swift , stand out a little and pay less for lots of fun . And that’s enough about the car . Anna you look more beautiful than ever and that’s never enough about the girl 😂
@@onthebuses GR, GR, GR.... IMO GR ends when 3 cylinders come 😞 Using such "engine" in any car should be treated as a serious crime 😉
@@janwege150277 did you ever drive one? they are briliant and very capable
Certainly not a fraud, Suzuki is one of the most honest brands out there.
I bought this as my first car almost two years ago (the non hybrid version) and it has been such an amazing car. Practical, but absolutely never lets me down when I need some extra power. Great to see people from other countries praising such a great car. Excellent video!
Slo-mo walking in 4" heels, talk of padded knickers, flashing HQ views, outstanding production values. And the perfect color for Anna. Swifty kept stalling in first because she wanted to get to know you better before she showed you her moves.
Question Request for Anna and for everyone, Thumbs up if Anna should drive with the gloves on. :)
Hello, Anna, Suzuki has always designed and built wonderful cars and this one seems very well suited for city use and week-end outings. It looks like one of those cars that grows on you quickly 💕. Thank you for bringing this model to our attention. 🤗🤗 Stay well always.
It's great to see Suzuki making great smaller cars unlike the majority of dull, hideous, oversized, overweight SUVs that seems to be the fashion nowadays.
Great review on the Swift. The bloopers are fantastic and definitely raise a smile 🙂
As usual a brilliantly presented and edited review Anna. We can tell that there is a separate videographer on this one that allows some more creativity, less rostrum camera shots look to have made way for this. I'm happy either way. I've liked the Swift for a very long time and this model does not disappoint either. It's a little bit more grown up in some ways being a mild hybrid but looks to be just as much fun as ever. I love the old school dials, the manual gearbox and a proper hand break. Boot space is about OK but fill it full of shopping with the ingredients for a lovely evening meal and you take the twisty lanes home, when you arrive these ingredients could be already mixed. Put in the oven and enjoy. This really could be a time saving car. Many thanks for sharing.
Great review! I wish we had this car in the USA. Love your plaid vest - very chic.
Could have this as my dayly 🌟🇯🇵 Happy Easter Anna & Crew 🍀 TK🇳🇴
Looks like someone found the slow mo button on the camera! 🤣🤪 As for the Swift, I like it! A nifty little rascal, just right for a fun drive along a narrow country lane. Another very entertaining review, thank you Anna, for making Sunday's funday's! The bloopers are a real treat, nothing like a bit of "hooging" in a Swift!
Very good explanation of the Suzuki Swift, easy to understand and sweetly expressed. All in all, a very interesting video. Thank you very much Anna
Thank you very much, I appreciate your review. We have just purchased this car 2023 in yellow it is for my wife $33,500 (AUD) and looking forward to collecting it this coming weekend. I am keen to feel how this car drives using the paddle shifters and with its sporty turbo it should be fun. Personally I own the exact opposite a 1969 Pontiac GrandPrix 455 stroker it runs at about 12litres per 100km 👀 But Man O Man it’s a real luxury Muscle car for sure! (Yes, I am a crazy mad old school petrol head car lover). Take CARe. Cheers from Western Australia 🇦🇺🤘🏻😎
Anna did you live in London at some point i can hear the accent breaking through! I currently own two ZC32's really love them but haven't had the chance to try the ZC33 yet. Thanks for the review.
Hi Nurwin1, thank you so much. This is a great little hoot! To answer your question, I have never actually lived in London and I haven't spent any time there. But I have lived for many years in New Zealand and a bit of Oz ;-)
Boy oh boy..Very well done Anna ! I always loved this car and wished we could get it in the USA. I enjoy your videos
Great video Anna
I watch your channel once in a while and I'm happy to see that time has no effect on you. You always look amazing and your car review is always so professional but fun at the same time. I wish you all the best. By the way, great car this Swift, it has something from a Peugeot 205 GTi or Renault 5 GT...in the spirit I mean.
Thank you so much Francisco ❤ It means so much to me. Swift definitely has a bit of that Peugeot 205 GTi flavour in it, a great little nifty machine!
@@AnnaOnRoads I am like Mr Spock...I cannot lie so my words are only the truth. You also have a great youtube channel. Greetings from Belgium
❤@@Francisco-sx7th
Anna tendo dificuldades com câmbio manual, que cena vcs são excelentes, congratulations 😂
Cool little car. Too bad we don't get them in N/A. Great job as usual Anna!
Hi Anna. I remember those Suzuki Swifts from the early 90's. They were the must have vehicle for the small car class at the 12hr races at the Bathurst track. Those 12hr races were solely for production cars so no modifications other than for safety. Also the Suzuki Swift was sold by Holden and was the first Holden to be sold with a Barina badge. The current Swift in my opinion is underrated. I know someone who has had two late models with no trouble to speak of. They are a good fun car and definitely they have their appeal especially as they get your seal of approval. But I have to ask what happened to you doing a 0-100 time? Thanks for sharing another video. P.S I don't know about the Swift but with my Holden if I stall it I must wait 15 seconds to restart it otherwise all sorts of lights will come up on the dash.
Love love love the bloopers 😂
😉
You make me laugh Anna, love your style and content
Thank you very much Carl 💛
Ciao Anna, I know you recently but it's a pleasure to follow you because I like cars but with your class, your elegance and beauty they are even more interesting, unfortunately I don't understand everything you say but it will still be a pleasure to follow you... 😉😉😃😃👍👍😊😊😍😍 Samu Milan-Italy
😉😉😃😃👍👍😘😘 Samu
This is a fantastic car whith no disturbance of lots of buttons to drive( in special ways). Simple, light nimble( on Norwegian backroads ), cheap....... Totaly agree whith this GOOOOD carreporter.This car I could have as my daily, specially whith this safe colour. People see U in all kinds of wheather and season. THANK U Anna !!! TK🇳🇴
Hello Anna, Nice video and your outfit is great, driving gloves 😍
Having owned the previous gen Sport it’s definitely a fun car. The 1.6 was a great little engine and loved a rev. Paying 14k for it new seems ridiculous now when you consider it needed no extras. Never let me down. Fond memories of it and I can’t say that about cars I’ve owned at a much higher price.
Nice car! Beautiful video!
Are we advertising the car or launching her modeling career with these slow-mo walks 😅
That was absolutely brilliant review Anna. Another Suzuki video wow. The Suzuki Swift Sport is an awesome little hot hatch. Great exterior looks and a very nice but simple interior at a very affordable price. Love that yellow paint it makes the car pop out but I like them in a metallic blue. Yes it is a shame that they didn't put the exterior paint colour to the places that had the red accents, it's like that with all other colours Swift Sport. I know they are like Go Karts with the handling and shift very well indeed as my friend was looking at them at one time and was work for Suzuki at the time. I guess they had to put the hybrid to meet with government rules and regulations. The same friend had the previous generation Swift and it had a 1.25L engine with 90 something BHP and it was quite nippy and he had it for a very long time but he was looking at the same generation Swift Sport but he was disappointed with it when he test drove one but the problem was it didn't have a service for a long time. But when my mate the test drove the generation that you drove here he love it but I think he prefer the one without the hybrid. At the I'm he couldn't fine one in the right price for him then he ended up buying a Jaguar EX R-Sport 2.0L petrol. So did he make the right choice? Answer to you pin comment is I would go for for the Swift Sport but then again how about the i20N or the i30n. Anna don't put yourself down. You are a very smart and witty lady that always seems to amaze me especially how you interact with so many people with in different languages. Absolutely brilliant and very professional video and probably could be used on a TV show. I love the new style filming that you and your videographer do and I think you hit the right balance with this video when to have videographer and when to have you old style with your cameras at fix points. Absolutely stunning B Rolls. It's always a fun and funny with those bloopers, love it. Keep up with the excellent work the both of you. Well all the best Anna. :-). P.S apologies for the long comment.
Lubię te wydechy, kolor mi się też podoba ale nie jestem do niego przekonany. Też wybrałabyś Fiestę ?
Beautiful Anna in perfect outfit - gloves not seen for long time :) Slow motions amazing - you know best which ones ;-) Ah, yes, Suzuki also interesting -> proof that a bit power in a small car, with manual gearbox can give you fun on daily basis. Pozdrawiam serdecznie z Zürichu :)
I would probably opt for the Fiest ST, Its a nice little car, ideal for wizzing around town or city. Great review Anna.
I’ve had both. The 2023 Swift sport and the 2020 Fiesta ST - the ford is a far better vehicle.
"Swift Sport... hybrid? Jesus Christ, another one?!" 😂😂😂 I'm in love 😍
4:41... is really gorgeous Anna !!! And the Swift Sport is really a fun car for a good price compared to some other small and sporty cars!
That would definitely be the perfect car for a college student or a young person starting off. I agree with Anna I love the manual transmissions but unfortunately they will be a thing of the past very soon. PS watch to the end Some funny stuff.
slo-mo walk worked for me
I didn't know padded knickers were a thing, I must live a very sheltered life🤭
Had the non hybrid version of this car, same colour and it was fun to drive and very economical.Also you get radar cruise control and other tec in the basic price. Shame it had to go as the other half wanted more comfort and was embarrassed by the colour.! 😂
Used to be a proud owner of a 3-door Mark II Swift Sport, aka ZA32S, owner. Test drove the Mark III (33) before they turned it Hybrid, it was quick but lacked the taste of Swift Sport. Stuck to the ZA32S until the GR Yaris came along.
so elegant wearing your black keyhole leather driving gloves-long time to see you with this amazing outfit-posh style-of course always your introduction and english accent is perfect
Forget the Mini. This car offers the best $ per smile.
Mini is super cool but that price tag, not so much!
Bom dia, que carro bonito, Anna, pequeno e rápido parabéns 👍
Hi Anna, I like this Suzuki car , so fun to drive !
Tested it earlier, from what I heard about the previous gen, I definitely felt it fixed most of the cons but removed a good amount of the character when doing so. To me it is surprisingly quiet and well-dampened for what it is, and the engine is very torquey from low down (but not much after). However the steering felt over-assisted and for the gearbox - though the throw is short (shorter than ZC33s non-hybrid) it doesn't have much feel. To me the whole car doesn't feel much (including the paddles), that is from me who drive a car many ZC32/31 owners consider to be less engaging (Honda CR-Z - definitely has more steering and paddle feel, and far, far better gear box and sitting position than the ZC33S hybrid). I feel if it is cheaper with a lot more premium interior then it will be a very competitive package (at least coherent), but at £23k really can't be convinced to buy one (the interior just doesn't feel like £23k, the screen and the parking cam are particularly low-res), especially i20N costs just a bit more but offers so much more. Such a shame as I intended to buy this as the replacement for my car (by which this is the only one I consider to be a direct replacement) as I always wanted a Swift Sport.
i20N offers "much more". But is that the "much more" you, I, we need? i20N like the other previous Hyunday Ns is cold-ish in temperament. It is a very finely set-up and made instrument to do something (performance, speed). The Swift is, as they said in the review, and "alive thing", and about entertainment (fun) more than performance. Most, or some, will be happier with the Swift than the i20N. As for the soon-to-be-discontinued Fiesta ST, which is the queen of this type of car, it was downgraded with a 3-cylinder whose long-term reliability can be doubted, and its price went a lot up as the Swift's (but it's much higher). Like the i20N, the Fiesta is more of a track car or a hard-driving car, and not so much of an entertainer for average drivers as the Swift. So, even if they were all the same price, had the same fuel consumption, I'd go for the Swift, and I am going for it actually, despite the wild increase of price. It costs nearly as much as a basic Mini Cooper, Audi A3, Mazda 3, cars that are way higher value objectively (due to how they are built), but... I am going to be more cheerful on a Swift than those, so, why not choose it?
Class!
Thank you Vincent 💚
A great value little car and the perfect size for narrow country roads 🍷🌹🍷
Exactly!
@@AnnaOnRoads 🥂
@AnnaonRoads Where did you get those gloves? Asking for a (girl) friend.
Wittchen - very famous brand in Poland :-)
@@AnnaOnRoads Thank you so much for letting me know. I'll see if I can get a pair shipped to the United States.
Another thing Anna, please keep this kind of background music instead of the usual vocals you use. Thanks! 👍
Fun with Suzuki Swift Sport or fun with Anna 😏? - the choice is up to you.
I love this car, it's like drinking fresh mineral water, try and believe
Peachy🍑 is a description that can be used in this video , just not for the car 🙏 A little fun with light weight and low power puts a huge smile on your face and gets the pulse racing , just a bit less than jeans heaven 🔥 Cars are too big too complicated and too expensive so this is a winner 🥳
Would love to drive that on a high way......looks corfy
Haha, I think twisty roads are far more suitable for this little bee!
Swift Sport, para mim por ser algo diferente, ainda mais porque a Ford deu Byby para o Brasil, só importanto veículos parabéns
Esse câmbio manual, feito para quem gosta de dirigir show
Yes!!!
💜
Anyone had issues with turbo swift?
The Swift Sport is a great car, we have the 2022 model non hybrid with 140hp and fuel economy just around town with heavy foot is about 6.2l/100km so about the same as Anna's test car which is hybrid with less power. Ours is also automatic with paddle shifters and also on test is a touch quicker than the manual alternative and as much fun. I don't see the point of hybrid in this car to sacrifice on power for no economy decrease. Also to all the GR Yaris boys, this car sells for around half price of a GR so apples and pears. Its like comparing Skoda to Audi
Hi Jacek, dziekuje ❤️ very well said, this isn't a hothatch to be compared with GR Yaris!
My mom’s car here in Japan
What country is this? Thanks.
Poland!
Thanks Anna. I hope Suzuki will bring this to the Philippines.
Pleasure :-) Fingers crossed, such a fun little car
I'm afraid that this low weight of Swift is the result of using thin sheets in the body. But car is very nice. Flowers for Anna: 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 👍
Anna, dziękuję Ci za dopięcie serduszka 🙂 Całuję rączki: 😘😘😘😘😘😘😘 Auuuu! 🤸♂🙂
Fraud. 🤥👎 At least you're in the video Anna.😘
Time has not been kind to the Swift, really needed miles more HP, not like Suzuki dont know how to build engines [GSXRR] . On the other hand my fav, Polish Woman is looking uba fine!
I think this little hottie is warming to your leg Anna!! :)
Haha, oh yes, big times!
😘
She is a peach , spleasent to watch video ... good luck :)
Haha, I am taking it as a compliment!
She cant do the chubby ppl like that 😭
Just a shame it's so painfully ugly.
non hybrid is better
