(May 2019) • Third model utilising Suzuki’s ‘HEARTECT’ lightweight platform strategy – kerb weight of just 890kg for SZ3 grade. • Manufactured for Europe at the Sagara plant in Japan. Following on from its launch in the Japanese domestic market, Suzuki Motor Corporation unveiled the new Swift for Europe at the 2017 Geneva Motor Show as its all new global compact supermini. The latest Swift represents an automotive advancement aimed at uplifting the driver through succession, evolution and innovation. It carries forward the Swift DNA while adopting completely new styling and a performance-enhancing extremely light body with advanced safety technologies. The result is exterior European flair complemented by a sporty and functional interior, nimble and agile driving, and enhanced peace of mind. In addition to its stylish exterior design in a compact size of just 3,840mm long, the Swift features excellent visibility, a spacious cabin and ample luggage space. The development goal was to create an all new hatchback styling that is undoubtedly Suzuki. Smarter packaging During interior design, lowering the seating positions ensured sufficient head clearance and added 23mm vertical and lateral space for the rear seating positions. The fronts seats were moved outwards by 10mm which increased the centre-on-centre distance between them by 20mm. New-generation ‘HEARTECT’ lightweight platform Under the ‘SUZUKI NEXT 100’ plan announced at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2015, Suzuki developed a new platform strategy for its future models and the Swift is the third model (following Baleno and Ignis) to adopt this platform and be introduced in Europe. The Swift rests on the latest generation platform known as “HEARTECT” that delivers enhanced fundamental vehicle performance due to being light and highly rigid. A comprehensive overhaul of the underbody’s structure and component layout resulted in the adoption of a highly rigid frame that enhances collision safety and has a continuous, smooth and curving form to help disperse energy quicker. This has led to a reduction in reinforcements, making the body a lot lighter and more spacious than the previous Swift, and greatly contributing to lower fuel consumption. Also, optimising the underbody together with the components that are attached to it as a unified whole rather than focusing on partial optimisation of individual components. This platform or underbody of the latest Swift is 30kg lighter than before which has contributed to the car registering a kerb weight of just 890kg (SZ3 model), over 100kg lighter overall. The bodyshell (Body in White) is also of lightweight construction and includes the use of Ultra High tensile steel (980Mpa) across 17 per cent of its structure and High tensile steel (789 MPa) across four per cent of its structure. Key dimensions Length: 3,840mm Width: 1,735mm Height: 1,495mm (2WD) 1,520mm (4WD) Wheelbase: 2,450mm Track: front/rear: 1,520 – 1,530mm/1,520 – 1,525mm (Dependent on Grade / Tyre size) Aspects of Styling Innovation add both style and a sporty flair, while a high-tech look comes in the form Development of the latest Swift’s exterior design was based on the of LED signature illumination used in the headlamps and rear-combination concept of a “bold evolution of Swift’s DNA”. While resolute efforts lamps (SZ5 model). were made so that Swift would inherit the model’s characteristic styling, elements that needed refreshing were boldly transformed to innovatively For the interior, the highly dimensional instrument panel highlights a sense evolve the new car. of nimble speed, while sporty and sophisticated white accents and satin chrome throughout the cockpit work with a basic tone of black to create a Enhanced carry-over elements include strong shoulders, blacked-out high contrast interior space. The instrument cluster features either a colour or A-pillars and vertically arranged front and rear lamps. Swift now offers a more monochrome LCD in the centre, with a coolant temperature and fuel gauge emotional appearance together with a muscular and well-grounded look. incorporated within the two main gauges. The body is shorter, lower and wider, while a wide and aggressive front grille, supporting bumper grille character lines all express strength. Other interior features include a centre console turned five degrees towards the driver, front seats with optimised shape and spring position with The look of a low centre of gravity is further established by blacked-out pillars heightened side bolsters, new design steering wheel with ‘D’-shape section that create the appearance of a floating roof. Pillar-mounted door handles and an LED auto air conditioning panel (SZ5 models). Capacity Adopting Suzuki’s latest generation platform strategy minimised the size of the engine compartment which has enabled maximising the space available for cabin occupants and luggage. Within its compact body size, Swift features a roomy and comfortable cabin with ample space between occupants, ample headroom and legroom contributing to its relaxing environment. The luggage capacity with rear seats raised is 265L which is 25 per cent larger than the previous model. Development of Swift - Put Through its Paces in Europe In order to suit the needs of European customers, Suzuki knew that simply designing and developing the latest Swift in Japan would not be sufficient. So it turned to the roads of Europe, where teams of local evaluation drivers helped to hone the new car. Testing of the chassis, which is the centrepiece of the Swift’s evolution, began in January 2016 in the United Kingdom and Germany. Covering a total of more than 6,000 miles, the teams tested as many as 90 different suspension prototypes in an effort to meet the need for optimum steering feel together with providing supple and agile suspension for British roads. This was combined with the demand for high-speed steering stability and riding comfort on winding German roads as well as the Autobahn. Damping force has been seperately tuned for both 2WD and ALLGRIP Auto equipped models. Powertrains, including those featuring Suzuki’s SHVS hybrid system, were also put to the test, being subjected to freezing weather in Sweden and to high temperature and high altitude environments in southern Spain. Additionally, hill-climbing and descent attributes were tested on the challenging roads of the Swiss Alps. Suspension The Swift suspension utilises traditional MacPherson strut design at the front and beam axle at the rear and various upgrades were made during development. For example, the front stabiliser bar is shorter than the previous model and of hollow design and the subframe is of lighter construction. At the rear, redesigned components include a new shape crossmember and modified trailing arms to further enhance cornering stability. Steering The steering rack is of variable ratio design which allows the angle of the wheels to change depending on steering input. The variable ratio increases response when the driver begins to turn the wheel to help achieve more direct and sharper handling. For greater manouverability this system has a wide turning angle with a reduced turning radius of just 4.8 metres. The steering rack itself is of hollow design to help reduce weight. Specification Highlights Standard equipment for all models in the range is comprehensive and the SZ3 model with 1.2-litre Dualjet engine and manual transmission includes six airbags, air conditioning, leather steering wheel, privacy glass, DAB radio with Bluetooth and four speakers, LED daytime running lights, 15-inch wheels, body coloured door mirrors and front electric windows. The SZ-T model with 1.0-litre Boosterjet engine and manual transmission adds rear view camera, Smartphone link display audio, 16-inch alloy wheels and front fog lamps.

  • Small Car Segment Dominates Europe's Biggest Markets 16.11.2007
    November 16, 2007 SMALL CAR SEGMENT DOMINATES EUROPE’S BIGGEST MARKETS B-segment is dominant sector in the ‘big five’ markets Ford Fiesta is top selling B-segment model Medium MPV sales up 49.8% YtD Luxury car segment down by 15.3% YtD JATO Dynamics, the world’s leading provider of automotive data and intelligence, today reports that in Europe’s big five markets of France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK, third quarter volumes are a marginal 0.9% higher over the same period last year and down by an identical 0.9% YtD. The small car – or B- Segment – is the most popular with consumers, holding 27.0% of the market though it has posted a small 0.5% drop YtD. “With Europe’s big five markets down by 0.9% YtD, it would be easy to assume that the market is relatively stagnant,” says Nasir Shah, Global Business Development Director at JATO. “In fact, the market is subject to considerable change thanks to political and legislative changes, economic considerations and the effect of new model introductions. The German car market, for example, is still adjusting to the taxation changes introduced at the beginning of the year.” Segment Trends B-Segment The B-segment has the largest share of the market by a considerable margin, with 27.0% market share in the first nine months of 2007. Its total volume for the YtD is 0.5% less than a year ago, which represents a smaller fall than the total market has experienced over the same period. However, recent months have seen a decline in the segment’s volumes, with third quarter volumes 3.0% lower than the same period in 2006.

  • Car Classification
    Car classification Car classification is subjective since many vehicles fall into multiple categories or do not fit well into any. Not all car types are common in all countries and names for the same vehicle can differ by region. Furthermore, some descriptions may be interpreted differently in different places. Broadly speaking, there are a set of classifications which are widely understood in North America, and another set which are somewhat understood in English-speaking contexts in Europe. Some terms borrowed from non-English languages may have different meanings when used in their native language. Classification systems The following are the most commonly used classifications. Where applicable, the equivalent Euro NCAP classifications are shown. Car rental companies often use the ACRISS Car Classification Code. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) has another set of classification rules based on interior passenger and cargo volumes. A similar set of classes is used by the Canadian EPA. In Australia, the Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries publishes its own classifications.
