The Suzuki Swift & Dzire Thread

Fight me on this - Do we really need a thread for pieces of scrap masquerading as cars?

They use the name SWIFT but in reality a Suzuki car struggles to go uphill in 1st gear.
 
Suzuki Swift dominates new car market again - these were the 50 top selling vehicles in February

It was another solid month of growth for the South African new vehicle market, as February saw passenger vehicle sales surge by 17% year-on-year.

The Suzuki Swift led this charge, and although slightly down on its stellar January performance that saw a record 2,628 units registered, the new-generation hatchback still dominated the passenger car sector in February with 2,351 sales.

This gave it a comfortable lead over the recently facelifted Volkswagen Polo Vivo, which found 2,187 homes last month.

However, on the overall leaderboard the Toyota Hilux rose to its usual top position with 2,683 sales, followed by the Ford Ranger at 2,168 and Isuzu D-Max at 1,924. This as the light commercial vehicle market declined by 11.3%, versus the same month last year, as the Nissan NP200’s absence and finance constraints in the minibus taxi market continued to weigh on the sector.

The passenger car market, on the other hand, continues to benefit from strong sales to the rental industry, which accounted for 39% of Suzuki Swift sales and 25% of Polo Vivo sales.

Interesting that you think you are wiser than the Suzuki Swift - 2,351 buyers for February alone.

It's the second top seller for a while now so wow, if you are wiser than 10's of thousands buyers then you probably are a top anc, eff or mkp supporter as well as they also think in that way.

You invited a fight...............
