Suzuki asks: Hatchback or sedan?
Since the launch of the new-generation Suzuki Swift Dzire in mid-2018, it has taken its place as one of the exceptional compact sedans of the auto brand.
As for the fourth generation of the Swift, some changes made include new exterior paint colors and updated design cues. Its cabin also features a host of upgrades to guarantee the convenience, comfort, and safety of its occupants.
The Swift and the Swift Dzire share the HEARTECT platform, where a new and continuous frame enhances underbody stiffness. This essentially contributes to reduced fuel consumption, crash safety, and improvement in the basic performance of the two vehicles. The smooth curving and rigid form of the frame efficiently disperse energy produced in the event of a collision.
The Suzuki Swift takes pride in “uplifting” design, performance, luggage and cabin space, convenience, and safety.
Meanwhile, the Suzuki Swift Dzire boasts of its pedestrian injury-mitigating body, improved interior comfort and connectivity, smart packaging, sufficient boot space, and impressive aerodynamics based on computer-aided engineering (CAE).
One is a hatchback, while the other is a sedan. But aside from the differences in the vehicle type, dimensions, colors, and the price, how else do these two Suzuki vehicles measure up against each other? Which do you prefer?
Let’s out the similarities and differences, particularly between the Suzuki Swift GL 1.2L CVT and the Suzuki Swift Dzire GL+ 1.2L Auto Gear Shift (AGS) variants below:
