Swift Sport Awarded Best Buy Hot Hatch

The all new Suzuki Swift Sport, which went on sale this week, has been awarded the ‘Best Buy Hot Hatch’ award at the What Car? Magazine awards this month. The new performance version of Suzuki’s flagship model was judged on its handling, safety features and value for money, and toppled a close competitor from its hold on the accolade.

The new Sport Swift is available from £13,499 and includes a high level of spec such as auto air conditioning, Bluetooth, privacy glass and 17 inch alloy wheels. Emissions levels and fuel efficiency have been improved since the last Swift Sport model, meaning ownership costs have been cut too.

What Car? editor in chief, Chas Hallet, said, “The all new Suzuki Swift Sport is a brilliant junior hot hatch which is at home on all kinds of roads thanks to its strong grip, tight body control and accurate steering. Priced at £13,499 and equipped with luxury specification it’s a great hot hatch that is perfect for young drivers.”

In line with the rest of the Suzuki new car range, the Swift Sport is covered by a three-year/60,000 mile warranty as well as Suzuki Assistance for the first 12 months, a 24-hour roadside assistance service that operates throughout the UK and Europe.

The new Suzuki Swift Sport is available now from Phoenix Cars in Stirling, Glasgow and Paisley.
