Performance

Engine

The Swift’s new 1.2-litre petrol engine combines outstanding fuel efficiency with impressive low-end torque for quick, responsive acceleration. It is also equipped with a number of advanced features that help suppress emissions.

Front and rear suspension

The Swift’s suspension system delivers a comfortable ride with excellent road-holding and handling stability. New Teflon™ sheets on the stabiliser mounts also reduce friction to help boost roll rigidity, steering feel, and vehicle posture when cornering.

SHVS mild hybrid system for enhanced energy efficiency

The Swift’s light, compact, SHVS mild hybrid system reflects Suzuki’s environmentally conscious approach to automobile design, and incorporates an integrated starter generator (ISG) and a high-efficiency lithium-ion battery with excellent charging and power supply performance.

ALLGRIP AUTO

ALLGRIP AUTO is an automatic four-wheel drive system that engages when it detects a loss of front wheel traction. When front-wheel slippage is detected, a viscous coupling engages to transfer torque to the rear wheels, providing additional traction for driving on snow-covered roads or other slippery surfaces.

HEARTECT platform

The smoothly curving frame increases underbody stiffness to help ensure excellent fundamental vehicle performance. In addition, it also contributes to collision safety by efficiently dispersing impact energy.

Safety

417

Dual Sensor Brake Support II (DSBS II)

Millimetre-wave radar and a monocular camera are employed to detect vehicles, bicycles, and pedestrians directly or diagonally ahead of the vehicle. If a collision seems possible, audio and visual warnings are issued to alert the driver. If the driver brakes with insufficient force, brake assist automatically engages to help slow the vehicle. And if the probability of a collision increases, the system automatically applies brake force to help reduce impact force and mitigate damage
418

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)

ACC helps reduce driver fatigue on long trips. The driver can activate the ACC in traffic with a switch on the steering wheel that requires only a single operation. The system, which can be set to four levels, uses millimetre-wave radar and a monocular camera to measure the distance to the vehicle ahead, and will accelerate or decelerate as needed to maintain a set distance. If the road ahead is clear, it will maintain the speed the vehicle was traveling when the switch was engaged. (On CVT-equipped models, ACC disengages when the vehicle comes to a stop. On MT-equipped models, ACC disengages at speeds of approximately 30 km/h or less.
421

Lane Keep Assist (LKA)

When adaptive cruise control is activated, LKA helps the driver maintain the vehicle’s position in the centre of the lane. In addition, if it senses that an adjacent vehicle or structure such as a temporary roadwork barrier or other obstacle is too close to the driver’s vehicle, it provides steering assistance to help maintain a safe distance.
422

Lane Departure Prevention (LDP)

When driving, LDP detects the left and right lane demarcation lines and predicts the vehicle’s path. If the vehicle begins to drift from the lane due to driver inattention, the system alerts the driver by sounding an audio alert or vibrating the steering wheel. If the system determines there is still a high probability of lane departure, it provides steering assistance to help the driver return to the centre of the lane.
423

High beam assist

When the headlamps are on high beam and there are oncoming or preceding vehicles in front, or if the car is being driven in a well-lit area, the headlamps automatically switch to low beam. The headlamps automatically return to high beam when there are no oncoming or preceding vehicles in front of the car, or when the surrounding area is poorly lit. (Active only at speeds above 40 km/h.)
419

Blind Spot Monitor (BSM)

BSM uses millimetre-wave radar sensors in the rear bumper to detect vehicles located in or approaching the rear blind spots on either side of the vehicle. When a vehicle is detected, a warning icon appears in the door mirror on the side that the vehicle is approaching. If the driver activates the turn signal on that side, the icon flashes and an audio warning sounds.
420

Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)

RCTA is a supplementary safety feature that uses millimetre-wave radar sensors to detect and warn of vehicles approaching from the left or right when backing out of a parking space or garage.
