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.

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.

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.

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.
