What's the closest rival for the Suzuki Swift Sport?

[Vtfoo]

I think the Suzuki Swift Sport has found a niche for itself.

In terms of engine capacity, body style and price, there is no direct rival.

What do you think?

Alfa Romeo 147 1.6M Twin Spark, but it is way overpriced at $85.8K, despite its high OMV of $24K.

Feel tat it also look like mini cooper, imo mini cooper rival for lower budget owner, cooper pretty ex.

I think you have left out the Honda Fit 1.5 VTEC and the Mitsubishi Colt Version Ralliart.

 

The SS looks more like a hatch while the other two looks like a little MPV.

 

For the price, the cheapest is the Honda followed by the SS then the CVR. Same order for their power as well.

 

SS is a good car but the hi-revving engine and lack of a 6th gear contribute to the poor economy for this car, it's small inside and there's no Recaro seats for this car. Even its older brother, the Ignis Sports has it.

Recaro is available as an option for $5000 alongside with other goodies like additional airbags,projector headlights + HID technology,etc.

niche = lower sales volume....

Latio Sports

[Macrosszero]

The Colt Ralliart will outmatch the Swift Sport for power and straightline speed, for slightly more money. Good trade I would say.

 

Haven't driven the Ralliart to compare it against the Swift Sport for handling.

To add on, the Honda Fit 1.5 VTEC might give it a decent run for its money too.

That avatar is a RX7 with RE Amemiya wide bodykit, wishing it was mine thou..

[YellowFlash]

think the ride in his avatar is a rx7 fd...

[Dh6211]

Come on, Latio Sports is a family hatch not a hot hatch..

[Sapience]

adding a SPORTS tag doesn't make the latio any sporty...

[Jl1500k]

Agree, adding Sport tag but engine not Sport. same for M3 and Lancer sport

That price doesn't reflect the true price of the car EA is retailing at. Must go down ask for the price.
