- The car we have today is likely the most attainable one that a boy racer would have an eye on and what better than to have our resident boy racer review it. The 2021 Suzuki Swift Sport might not break any sales records, but it being manual only in Singapore will certainly appeal to enthusiasts.

Hi guys, we mistakenly listed the Swift Sport as a Category B COE car. It is a Category A COE car. Apologies for the confusion caused.

Thanks for putting up the review! The Swift is indeed a fun car to drive. Driving a 1.0 turbo swift and enjoying the corners as what you mentioned. The maneuverability just brings joy. And yes, space for passengers at the back is great despite it being a compact. One thing you lack to mention is the outstanding fuel economy which Suzuki claims to 21.2km/l. Pretty good for a "sporty" car.
Great car. Those who buy it know exactly what they want.
Great review Julian ❤️ Same sentiments when driving the ZC33S. What i like about it- Chuckable’, fun hatch, Manual transmission, good looks, uncommon on the road, no turbo lag, wheel spins (even though it’s front wheels). Pricey? u can save a lot by getting a used one after 1-2 years
Been driving the 1st gen Swift Sport 1.6L manual for 7 plus yrs till COE up, man this hot hatch is a real blast to drive due to its light weight plus rigid body. Car is damn reliable even you drive like you stole it since days one. No major engine or technical problems throughout the years even driving her hard occasionally, and only replaced the clutch plus the small ac pump besides those regular wear and tear components that's all. Imo it's the best Cat A hatchback car around if you are looking for a truly reliable and sporty drive!
CM should also bring in the auto variant for the swift sport. Will help to increase their sales.
Lovely car to drive, chassis composure is great - that busy low speed ride (which isnt too bad at all) gives way to excellent composure at speeds over broken roads. Gear shifts are slick and steering feel really nice. yes, interior is cheap but likely more durable than soft touch vag rubber. But there is some competition at this price point for those who do not mind automatics. The PI Non hybrids are lighter and quicker but expensive with the gap in Cat A and B, and then you have the accomplished Ibiza that is sorted everywhere, and the rather unique and surprisingly nippy Note epower.
$110k for a compact hatchback? I have to pass man. Rather wait for COE to drop to $30k then maybe can consider.
Now govt need $. You slowly wait ahahahahahaha
Hi Julian,
Great review. The Swift has always been a personal favorite for me. And the
Sport has manual transmission!!! That is definitely a car for the driver.
I always seem to have a need to crank up the volume for sgcarmart's reviews.
Pretty sure something can be done post-editing.
Nonetheless, good content review as always.
Hey Zee Q,
Noted on the feedback on the audio. We will improve on this for subsequent videos!

Same issue here, Samsung user. The volume of the ads in between scare the sh*t outta me.
No problem with 127hp/235nm 1.4T MH..The car is light as well..Still remember my 1st car>The Swift 1.3 GTI
Love this car.
But not available in my country 2ndly I can't even afford a scooty right now
One car I will definitely have if I can ever afford a car in life would be very limited version of swift samurai.
I wish one day I would earn enough
To give a better perspective, bring two friends that are over 1.7cm tall and let them sit in with you at the rear. Ask for their honest opinion.
Hi! Actually Swift Sport mild hybrid was set to 127hp not because of Champion Motors wanted to make the car a Cat A COE car, it’s due to Suzuki’s decision to down-tune the Swift Sport mild hybrid to meet the emission requirements.
And they didnt include the 13bhp & 54nm torque from the mild hybrid in order to keep it within CAT A. Thats a smart loop hole.
So actually the hybrid has the same HP as the non hybrid.
@@rayco82 but that doesn't explain why the century sprint of the mild hybrid SS is mere 9.1sec? The original 140ps version has a 0-100 timing within the 7-8 sec.
Also, as an enthusiast's car, how moddable is the hybrid system compared to the regular boosterjet? The 140ps unit is quite tuneable..
@@silenthunt Very good questions
@@silenthunt well, let me try to see if I can answer your questions, and perhaps add abit of insight.
Firstly, this varient(hybrid) was created due to the increasing stringent euro emmisions in well, europe. In sg we mostly follow their trims for cars.
So, for better emissions, you can down tune in attempt to increase the efficiency of the engine. Going hybrid is also another perfect choice in this current tech age as it not only can improve emissions further, it will also add power. So effectively you have 142hp and 288nm of torque.
But, wait. Here's the catch. You only see this output when your battery is fully charged and assisting the engine 100%. When its totally empty(eg when climbing the genting mountain) you will still have 127 and 235. Now, in reality you will be seeing a combined output somewhere in the midst of those 2 sets of numbers. The output figures are dynamic, which means its changing with time.
As for the 0-100 sprint, its slower than the k14c because 1) its heavier and 2) even though max combined is higher than non-hybrid, most of the time you are less than 142 hp( this is also a very light car, so torque has lesser relative impact than horsepower).
As to why suzuki chooses to brand it as 127 235 rather than a higher amount due to electrical power. Its simple. Its better to over deliver. 127 is the max engine output, but given the nature of the mild hybrid, its comparatively insignificant and there might be occasions the electrical system is low on charge and do not assist your drive. They probably want to avoid lawsuits if they advertised higher?
For customisation (rather than modification, garmen dun like that word), well you can go 2 ways, you can improve the engine, or even improve the electrical system. Electrical car tech is booming in this century, so I won't be surprised if aftermarket names start producing electrical enhancing parts.
So all in all a 17-18km/l(conservative) good handling, plentiful turbo torqued car that uses electricity to cover its non-existant turbo lag. I say, its really a no brainer. Ai peah Ai qiee Ai dua luap nee? Naah, here lor.
@@-funkycher- for your effort in writing the wall of text, I give you a thumbs up...lol
Actually I sort of knew it is due to the European standards but I was abit disappointed that Suzuki could not keen up with the emissions standard without doing the hybrid on their engines. The 140bhp booster jet had so much potential and its supposed to be a milestone for Suzuki.
What a bummer.
It is 144k now
How is fabric upholstery a favourite?? 😅
Fabric offers more friction. It’s important when you’re going through sideway G forces. You don’t want to be sliding off your seat.
Yes, I would happily pay $110 for this car. :p
I'm that kid you've described.
That youtube thumbnail face 😮
Wow $110 for a compact hatchback, yes please
WAIT WHAT?? first of all the Swift Sport 2021 Hybrid doesn't cost $108.900 DOLLARS WTF YOU SMOKING?? the cost is around $21.500
also you got the hp wrong, it's 129HP/235Nm not 127...
Can review any budget 7 seater SUV
there was a Perodua Aruz review some time back...
@@silcosilva A budget contidental 7 seater SUV
@@pl1tpl0t how do you define budget since both budget and continental don't exactly go together..?
You forgot to state the OMV. Also you forgot to compare it with Mazda 2 Hatchback Deluxe trim. The Mazda will match it for steering feel and road holding. Interior quality is better and SG list price is lower.
yes! i'm very keen on a mazda 2 hatchback too. design and price seem good. and it's a DCT not a CVT like the suzuki swift iirc. please consider doing a review of it!

Mazda 2 is tight and nimble but the Swift Sport has more torque to play with. It will never keep up with the Swift Sport after the apex of the the corner...
The swift sport has a heavier steering too got better feedback in handling.
@@silenthunt I don't know about Mazda 2, but the SS corners like on rails... 💪
Maybe you should do a re-review of the Opel Astra which u have bashed for having hard plastics, outdated driver cockpit etc. Isn’t the Swift Sport the same with hard plastics and dated instrument panels and it’s now 2021 not 2020!
The Julian guy has a habit of caressing the dashboard while driving
really $103,990 USD? Where?
In Singapore dollars plus taxes. Not available in the US but I reckon this will cost about 10 to 15 grand if they ever bring it to the US.
right up your alley.....come on. let's work on choice of words, pls!!!!
What's wrong with that? It's a legitimate expression, no?
I don't think there's much "sportiness" going for it, looks more like a toy car from the front!
As toy car as it gets, Sportiness means "fun car to drive" which this car delivers.
Some cars looked sporty but can't even delivery a fraction of fun compared this car.
Just sold my a4 for this 😂
Cheers..i bought this in 2020..curious to know how does swift sport turbo compare to the a4?
Really ?
More reliable
1HP=1.015PS.....
It’s not pronounced ibi-za la. Ibi-ta
*$110k WTF are you serious I'll better by a Mustang GT that only cost 52 grand*
Probably singapore dollars. This cannot be USD
