The new 2014 Suzuki Swift hatchback comes with 1.2 liter engine makes it more economical than with the late 2013 Suzuki Swift. Line up as mini class which targeting the entry level car buyer.

However, when it comes with styling "edges and curves" the new 2014 Suzuki Swift model is the same with its predecessor, the late 2013 Suzuki Swift 1.4 model.

Furthermore, the new 2014 Suzuki swift comes with 15-incher alloys and a sporty rear spoiler, makes it more look sophisticated and good looking when you add its arching rear light comes a Swift Signature.
