The Generation V Swift debuted at the Paris Auto Salon in September 2004.

In Japan, only the 5-door body is available and four-wheel drive is an option for the 1.3 L or 1.5 L petrol engine. 1.2 L CVT transmission version also available in only front wheel drive version. The design of the new Swift was previewed on the Concept S and Concept S2 concept cars at auto shows, in the years leading up to its launch.

In Europe, the Swift was launched in 3- or 5-door hatchback form, with 1.3 and 1.5 L petrol engines, and a 1.3 L DDiS engine supplied by Fiat. The 1.3 L petrol is also available with an automated manual gearbox or with four-wheel drive.

The British Autocar magazine gave the new Swift a favorable 4/5 stars in road test, judging it a “thoroughly impressive all-rounder”. The Generation IV Swift has received a four stars out of five rating in the EuroNCAP crash tests.
