Great

* It’s fun, it’s funky – and it’s had a much-needed facelift
* Safer in a crash than its diminutive stature would suggest
* Long spec list – but a tiny price-tag

Gripes

* Stingy luggage space: Bag Ladies need not apply
* Stiff suspension can be bruising on bumpy roads
* Interior feels more High Street than Harrods
DriveDrive rating - 4 out of 5 stars
Pretty potent on city streets and at speed, but uneven road surfaces can rattle your teeth
 ReliabilityReliability rating - 3 out of 5 stars
Suzuki has built a solid reputation for reliability, which bodes well for the Swift’s future
InsideInside rating - 4 out of 5 stars
The Swift’s interior is basic but robust; shame the driving position can’t be made more bespoke
 SpaceSpace rating - 5 out of 5 stars
Foursomes easily fit – but that doesn’t apply to the boot, where you’ll struggle to squeeze in more than two suitcases
SafetySafety rating - 4 out of 5 stars
Twin front, side and curtain airbags complement the Swift’s commendable four-star NCAP safety rating
 Standards and extrasStandards and extras rating - 4 out of 5 stars
Basics get power steering, electric front windows and remote central locking; top-specs come with keyless entry/ignition, rear spoiler and twin exhausts
