Suzuki Swift SZ-L Limited Edition

The Suzuki Swift SZ-L goes on sale today, a high spec, limited edition run of the European-friendly Swift supermini.

Additional equipment includes air conditioning, four snazzy metallic paint options, 15-inch alloy wheels, chrome finish door handles and grill plus a smattering of new interior upgrades. Just 500 cars will be built.

We also like the new indicators incorporated into the electronically retractable wing mirrors.

Priced at £10,250, the Suzuki Swift SZ-L packs a sprightly 1.3-litre, 93bhp engine, allowing for a 0-62mph sprint in an impressive 11 seconds.

Suzuki is attempting to offer a more economical option that resembles the 1.5-litre model because whilst the SZ-L borrows its big brother’s clothes and toys, it returns 48.7mpg and emits only 140g/km.

Positioned in insurance group four, premiums for the well dressed Suzuki SZ-L will be low as well as eligibility for the government scrappage scheme, which provides a £2,000 discount when trading in a 10 year old car.

Suzuki is also offering zero percent finance up to the 30th September.
