SUZUKI'S COMPACT REVOLUTION: URBAN DRIVING REDEFINED

With our towns and cities ever busier, it's no surprise that Suzuki have kept their small-car philosophy at the centre of their designs.

Larger cars aren't for everyone - we know that.

Suzuki have been a staple in the small-car space for the best part of 70 years and are famous for the Swift, Alto and have expanded into the small-SUV market. With our towns and cities ever busier, it's no surprise that Suzuki have kept their small-car philosophy at the centre of their designs.

Overview of Suzuki's Commitment to Innovation

Suzuki are a marque that need no introduction; the brand is synonymous with cars and motorbikes alike, and every new Suzuki is built with the same commitment to focus on the person driving it. Convenience and safety features are of course standard, but Suzuki cars are designed with the future in mind. Having celebrated their centenary in 2020, Suzuki draw on decades upon decades of engineering innovation to make their new Suzuki cars both practical and affordable.

The Shift Towards Compact Cars

Why Compact Cars are Ideal for Urban Environments

It may seem obvious - but an SUV is largely impractical in a city centre. The Suzuki range is not without its larger SUV-tier vehicles, however some of the best equipped and popular models are the smaller vehicles, like the Swift.

A quality, small and cheap car is perfect for getting around the city - as it's able to navigate narrow streets with ease, without the concern of getting pinged or clipping the curb.

What are the Benefits of Owning a City Car?

Being able to get from A-B is imperative whether you live in a rural location or in a city centre. A city car like the Suzuki Swift is ideal for getting around between parked cars and busy junctions.

The Evolution of Urban Transportation Needs

Even since 2020, urban living and the way in which we commute has changed by orders of magnitude.

With fewer people commuting in person, those that live in city centres need small, efficient vehicles that don't break the bank, especially in terms of Car Tax (Vehicle Excise Duty).

Suzuki’s Response with New Suzuki Cars, Tailored for the City

Suzuki are at the forefront of developing new cars for the new and emerging commuter dynamic.

By designing small, efficient and budget-friendly models, Suzuki are producing well-equipped, reliable, and great value vehicles that offer low running costs and affordable servicing.

The Key Features of Suzuki's Compact Cars

Space Efficiency: Maximising Interior Room in Small Footprints

Suzuki cars are known for their practical and spacious interiors. Capitalising on the available space, the Suzuki Swift is the latest generation in the square-foot-optimised design. A hatchback, sure - but from its first design in 1983, the Swift has evolved into the hybrid city car that it is today.

The newest Suzuki Swift offers a 265L luggage capacity, which climbs to 589L with the rear seats folded down. The model also includes a powertrain capable of sub-100g/km CO2 emissions. All of this, plus modern technology for every driver's convenience and comfort.
