 The sub-120 g/km club for low emission cars just got bigger again with the Suzuki Swift

Suzuki are driving down costs for drivers of their Suzuki models. With the 1.3-litre DDiS model of the Swift,the CO2 emissions are now lower,and the total running cost is lower,too. At 119g/km of CO2 this car rates for a saving of £80 on the road tax, and from late October this year will qualify for London Congestion Charge exemption, which for a driving commuter means a probable saving of £2,000 per annum.

Engine performance delivers 61.4 mpg in the combined cycle. The attractive Swift comprehensive spec comes as standard: radio/CD player, remote central locking and immobiliser, electric windows,electric and heated door mirrors,steering-wheel mounted audio controls and tinted. The 1.3 DDis also provides air conditioning,alloy wheels,front fog lamps and key less entry and start. Impressive,but to be fair, you would expect most if not all these items when shopping for a current supermini. So do check them out before you buy.

And there's the safety consideration also. The Swift has collected impressive awards from Euro NCAP for occupant,child and pedestrian protection.
