REVEALED: Taylor made suzuki swift | Vintage Vibes

The Suzuki Swift Ultra. Feel free to give it a damn good thrashing - (Suzuki)

It weighs less than a tonne. The Suzuki Swift weighs less than a tonne. Leaving aside such featherweight oddities as the Caterhams, Ariels and a three-wheel Morgan, there are few to rival the Suzuki for daintiness, with the basic “Motion” variants coming in at a mere (by modern standards) 949kg.

I felt I had to check this because it feels so light on the road, in a world where we’re just not used to that sort of airiness on the move. A world, that is, where the absurd Musk Cybertruck is more than three tonnes, and even a VW Golf can be a tonne and a half.
