New-Suzuki-Swift-Sport-RearThe new hot hatchback derives power from Suzuki’s 1.4-litre turbocharged Boosterjet engine which is good enough to produce a maximum power output of 140 PS and 230 Nm of peak torque. The more powerful engine makes 44 percent more peak torque and is available at as low as 2,500 rpm when compared to the old naturally aspirated engine that had long been in the business.

Being based on a lightweight architecture, the 2018 Swift Sport only tips the weighing scale at 975 kilograms. With increased torque output and chassis lightness, the sporty handling characteristics and agility have certainly improved. Going by numbers, it can accelerate from zero to 100 kmph in just 8.1 seconds and can max out 209 kmph.
