Suzuki Swift in Pakistan: Specifications, Price & Pics
May 2nd
With the launch of Suzuki Swift in Pakistan it created madness for sporty car lovers, so this post was necessary, details of this fantastic car as follows:
The Generation V Swift debuted at the Paris Auto Salon in September 2004. This generation of the Swift marked a significant departure with the previous Cultus-based models, with Suzuki re-designing the vehicle as less of a “low price alternative” subcompact and more of a “sporty” subcompact. The Swift’s design and driving characteristics focused on the European market with its chassis refined through a road-testing program across Europe.
Indian Engineers were called to Japan to help Suzuki design this generation of Swift.
Available with 1.3 (92 PS (68 kW; 91 hp)) and 1.5 (102 PS (75 kW; 101 hp)) L petrol engines, the new Swift is Suzuki’s new “global car”, produced in Hungary, India, Japan, Pakistan and by Chang’an in China.
