Toyota Yaris vs Suzuki Swift

[Egan101]

Swifts aren't really swift & the Dzire isn't really desirable. Worth is relative. There are a number of alternatives in this segment.

If only they brought the Swift Sport (1.6L turbo) locally, then we can say they are swift. Now, they took away the 1.4L engine and just gave people the anemic 1.2L engine.

How about they put that 1.6L engine of the Vitara on the Swift? That would be much better.

Agree with this one. Or bring in at least the turbo 3-pot Booster Jet from India.

Does it mean that the swift with 1.2 engine does not do justice? I have a relative who is patiently waiting for a second hand swift 1.2 but with a very limited budget. May ibang swift 1.4 and 1.5 na old model na pasok sa budget nya, but he doesnt want to. He's more leaning to smaller engines for better FC.

150k kph easy, but then again egan is used to driving really fast and way over 150kph LOL

What I meant was that putting an anemic 1.2L engine do not give justice to the "Swift" name. Being swift means quick, fast, athletic, and nimble. If performance is a key concern, then go look for another vehicle with a more potent engine and sporty chassis.

Grabe ka naman, bro! Binenta mo naman ako. Marami din iba dyan hanep humataw sa expressways.

as it was falling off the cliff!
heh heh.

I had a small car too and I love driving it fast. I felt sad letting it go. It had a small 3-cylider engine but it packs a turbo.

...daihatsu charade..?

...daihatsu charade..?

Ford Fiesta Ecoboost, it is still a small car like the Yaris, Swift, Jazz, and Mazda2.

Looked over the new Swift displayed at SM North EDSA. The engine bay is clean, as in too clean! The engine is so small you could use the engine bay as another luggage trunk with all that extra space. I would have liked the Swift's styling but that anemic engine is such a downer.

dapat pala sinama ko si jut LOL
OK naman handling ng swift, pero nung nag 180kph pala ako; at 160kph, turned off OD then on again after few seconds.
medyo alanganin na sa 180kph so slowed down after a while.
feeling ko bro (atleast the last time i drove it), OK ang swift pag running 80kph na then flooring it vs dead stop. (does this make sense?)

Lots of small-engined cars can do 180kph. The question that comes to mind is, how long does it take to reach that speed?

only difference is at 160kph, handling is the same as when i was doing 100kph bro. cant say the same for my current 1.3 1st gen vios, at 140kph, i dont feel comfortable changing lanes without slowing down LOL

[dr. d]

butih pa kayo.
my nerves start giving out past 120 kph...
i start imagining ER scenes...

[Egan101]

Yung previous gen Jazz 1.3L AT namin dati, hirap na lumampas ng 140kmh kung may sakay sa likod. That car handles well but it is awfully slow to accelerate. When cruising at 120kmh, the tach is doing 4k rpm.

Iirc, yung City 1.3L MT iDsi namin ay approx 85km/h lang kapag 2.5k rpm.
Nakakainip gamitin sa expressways kasi tunog hirap na yung makina kapag lagpas sa 2.5k rpm.

Oks lang yan, doc. Basta ba wag ka lang bumabad sa left lane ng expressways.

Gen 1 Yaris is good. I miss driving my sister's old Yaris kapag coding car ko. Enough speed for city driving. Madali pa sumingit. lol Though I think masmaganda handling ng swift in general?
