Welcome to the Hard Reset InfoCars
0:01
channel. In today's video, we've
0:03
prepared a review of the 2026 Suzuki
0:09
The Suzuki Swift Mild Hybrid is the
0:11
latest version of the bestselling
0:15
It's not focused on performance or
0:16
luxury. This is a car for people getting
0:19
around the city who don't need a lot of
0:21
horsepower under the hood. This car can
0:23
go practically anywhere. It has low fuel
0:26
consumption and is also quite
0:27
comfortable for a compact city car. It
0:29
comes with a host of safety systems and
0:32
meets the basic requirements for a
0:33
compact city car, namely a start stop
0:43
heated seats, as well as a large screen
0:45
and a reversing camera. The trunk is
0:47
also quite decent. You can fit a lot of
0:50
shopping in there or a large suitcase.
0:54
Let's take a look at the construction of
0:55
the car and see what has changed. Since
0:58
we're already at the back, let's start
1:01
The car has gained three-dimensional
1:05
rear lights which are supported by LED
1:09
We also have an integrated spoiler here
1:15
as well as a distinct groove
1:22
running along the entire length of the
1:23
car from back to front.
1:27
which integrates absolutely seamlessly
1:29
with the overall aesthetic design and
1:31
the specific placement of the vehicle's
1:35
The car's front lights are LED.
1:38
These headlights feature both high and
1:39
low LED beams with an intelligent
1:42
automatic switching system called
1:44
highbeam assistant. Additionally, the
1:46
front grill is noticeably smaller.
1:50
As a result, the car looks more modern.
1:53
On the front windshield, we can clearly
1:55
see an advanced sensor mounted there,
1:57
which is responsible for enhancing
1:59
overall safety during your driving
2:00
experience. This includes features such
2:03
as the dual support brake system or the
2:05
forward collision warning system
2:08
or active cruise control.
2:11
Let's move to the inside of the car.
2:13
Remember, this is a compact car, so in
2:15
the front, both the driver and the
2:17
passenger will have plenty of leg room.
2:19
Even drivers like me, tall and a bit
2:21
broad, will fit comfortably. Let's take
2:24
a look at the back. This is a drawback
2:31
as you can see, with the front seat
2:33
pushed all the way back, there's barely
2:34
enough room in the back for just a
2:36
backpack. But we can't expect too much
2:38
from this car because it was designed to
2:40
be compact and urban. It's meant for
2:42
people with modest needs. The car has
2:45
returned to classic rear door handles.
2:49
instead of handles hidden in the
2:50
doorpillar to improve ergonomics. This
2:53
is one of the factors that contribute to
2:55
the car's low fuel consumption.
2:58
Being inside the car, we can notice that
3:00
it is very comfortably designed. Even
3:03
though I am a large person, I can easily
3:05
fit, stretch my legs and also adjust the
3:07
steering wheel so that it's comfortable
3:09
for me. The screen is focused towards
3:12
the driver. Subtly, but it is. In this
3:15
section, we can conveniently adjust
3:17
various system settings as well as
3:19
efficiently manage the radio, the
3:21
navigation map, real-time fuel
3:23
consumption, and both Android Auto and
3:26
Apple CarPlay, which are fully wireless.
3:29
Furthermore, the digital screen located
3:31
directly behind the steering wheel in
3:32
the car is also remarkably intuitive and
3:34
userfriendly for the driver. Here we
3:37
have a tachometer, a speedometer, and
3:39
also a small screen that allows us to
3:41
manage the basic safety systems.
3:44
but we'll get to that in a moment. Let's
3:46
take a look at the build quality. This
3:49
car is dominated by hard plastic, but as
3:51
you can see, it doesn't creek in any
3:56
Besides that, it's very well fitted
4:00
The infotainment radio system is
4:02
integrated directly into the main
4:04
display screen, and just below it, we
4:06
can find traditional analog buttons for
4:08
the climate control panel. In my
4:10
personal opinion, this is a much better
4:12
design solution than putting every
4:14
single function into one big touchcreen
4:17
because with this dedicated physical
4:18
panel, we can very quickly turn the air
4:20
conditioning on or off and easily adjust
4:23
the intensity of the fan or the cabin
4:25
temperature without taking our eyes off
4:29
Next, let's move on to the safety
4:31
systems that are installed in this car.
4:35
The 2026 Suzuki Swift Mild Hybrid. Even
4:38
in the most basic trim levels available,
4:40
this vehicle comes impressively equipped
4:42
with a wide array of advanced safety
4:44
systems. Inside the cabin, we find
4:46
sophisticated features such as adaptive
4:48
cruise control, a precision speed
4:50
limiter, and comprehensive traffic sign
4:52
recognition. Furthermore, it includes
4:55
forward collision warning, a robust dual
4:57
brake support system, and a rear cross
4:59
traffic alert to ensure maximum safety.
5:01
All of these intelligent systems can be
5:03
easily managed and customized directly
5:05
from the highresolution central
5:11
right behind the steering wheel. The car
5:14
is also equipped with
5:20
The continuously variable CVT
5:22
transmission is absolutely ideal and a
5:24
perfect match for this efficient hybrid
5:27
engine. It is very smooth.
5:32
then easy to use. You can also switch it
5:34
to manual mode, which allows you to
5:36
manually control the power.
5:39
Even though the CVT transmission doesn't
5:41
have physical gears, we can adjust its
5:45
The car is also equipped with six
5:47
airbags, a front driver's airbag, a
5:49
front passenger's airbag, as well as two
5:51
side airbags and two seat airbags.
5:54
In the back, we can find two ISOIX
5:56
mounts on the outer seats. Now, let's
5:59
move on to the so-called comfort
6:04
The Suzuki Swift as a compact and
6:06
affordable car offers a lot of premium
6:08
features while driving.
6:11
Namely, as I mentioned earlier, here
6:12
you'll find adaptive cruise control,
6:14
automatic lights, electric mirrors, as
6:16
well as heated mirrors, an automatic
6:18
transmission, three USB ports, and also
6:21
one power outlet. On the screen, you'll
6:23
find built-in maps as well as wireless
6:25
Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. The
6:29
driver's seat and the passenger seat are
6:30
also heated. The Suzuki Swift is also
6:33
equipped with a rear view camera and
6:35
parking sensors. The camera is connected
6:37
to a so-called system, rear cross
6:40
traffic alert, which will automatically
6:41
break in case of any problem. Fuel
6:44
consumption is one of the strongest
6:45
points of this car. Let's take a look at
6:50
The new 3-cylinder 1.2 2 dual jet engine
6:52
working together with a 12vt mild hybrid
6:54
system makes the Swift one of the most
6:56
fuelefficient combustion cars on the
6:58
market. Combined cycle about 4.4 L per
7:01
100 km. In the city, calm driving allows
7:04
you to get down to about 3.8 to 4 L and
7:06
on the highway at 140 km/h, fuel
7:09
consumption rises to about 6.5 L per 100
7:14
Under the hood, there's an engine with
7:18
horsepower and a torque of 112 Newton
7:21
meters. From 0 to 100 km takes about
7:24
12.5 seconds. The maximum speed is 165
7:29
Thanks to its low curb weight of just
7:31
949 kg, the car feels more dynamic than
7:34
the numbers on paper would suggest. The
7:36
prices for this car range from 175,000
7:41
depending on the equipment. Whether you
7:44
buy the car with a manual transmission,
7:46
automatic or with all the comfort or
7:48
safety features. Compared to its
7:50
competitors such as the Toyota Yaris,
7:52
Desa Sandereo or Scodafabia, the Suzuki
7:55
Swift Mild Hybrid, it beats them hands
7:58
down. First of all, it is much more
8:00
affordable. It has all the safety
8:02
systems that its competitors have. It
8:04
has fantastic fuel efficiency and a very
8:07
high level of driving comfort.
8:12
may only have a mild hybrid system and
8:14
not a full hybrid, but it is perfectly
8:16
suited to various driving scenarios.
8:18
Next, let's compare the equipment
8:19
versions. Let's start with the premium
8:22
version. Even in the premium version, we
8:24
have LEDs, a reversing camera,
8:26
navigation, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto,
8:29
and adaptive cruise control. Premium
8:32
Plus adds 16-in alloy wheels, a blind
8:34
spot monitoring system, and heated
8:36
seats. Elegance, the highest option,
8:39
comes with automatic air conditioning,
8:41
electrically folding mirrors, and
8:42
polished alloy wheels. On the plus side,
8:46
this car has phenomenally low fuel
8:47
consumption, very rich standard
8:49
equipment, low curb weight, and high
8:51
reliability. On the downside, it has
8:53
hard plastics in the interior finish.
8:55
The manual gearbox only has five gears.
8:57
Poor sound insulation above 120 km/h.
9:00
Poor sound insulation above 120 km per
9:03
hour and there is no armrest in the car.
9:06
Suzuki Swift mild hybrid from 2026.
9:10
It doesn't pretend to be something it's
9:11
not. It's not a limousine. It's not a
9:13
sports car. It's a compact car mainly
9:16
for city driving, but in this category,
9:18
it beats the competition hands down.
9:21
Thanks to its low fuel consumption,
9:23
great comfort, and high build quality
9:25
with many safety and comfort systems,
9:27
this car is ideal in its price range.
