Suzuki Swift Sport – Design

Foursquare and punchy, if not bristling with aggression. Visual bark to match its dynamic bite

Evo rating
  • Composed chassis, decent refinement, lots of kit
  • Lacks adjustability, old-school Swift Sport character dulled

Externally, the Swift Sport was a little more visually aggressive while not being as menacing as some. The front bumper and grille, side skirts and rear diffuser with dual exit exhausts add just enough sporting intent, while the 17-inch alloys help deliver a more muscular stance. While looks are subjective, it’s four-square stance gives the Sport Hybrid a small dose of personality to lift it from the regular models.

If you want to attract even more attention, the Championship Yellow paint job should do the trick – although its inclusion on the palette was a little odd considering Suzuki’s last title success at the time was the Junior World Rally Championship way back in 2010.
