Ultra Low Fuel Consumption Swift In Fleet World WLTP Challenge

October 15, 2019 by Suzuki

At the recently held WLTP Challenge organised by Fleet World magazine, Suzuki is pleased to announce that its Swift Attitude model achieved 73.32 mpg, representing a 21.92 mpg improvement over the official WLTP fuel consumption regulation introduced for all new car registrations since September 2018.

Attitude is powered by Suzuki's renowned 1.2-litre Dualjet 4-cylinder 90HP petrol engine and was driven the 220 miles test route by Hayley Everett from Fleet World magazine. At the finishing point, Hayley managed to attain a 42.65 per cent improvement over the official combined WLTP figure.

Swift Attitude has a kerb weight of just 980kg and combined with its 1.2-litre Dualjet engine proved to be a strong competitor finishing third overall for recorded fuel consumption amongst a wide group of 13 petrol, diesel, hybrid and PHEV models that entered this year. Pure EV models from various manufacturers were in a separately judged group.

Excluding the 1.4-litre Boosterjet Swift Sport, all Swift models are available VAT free until the end of 2019 which represents a saving of £2,482 for the Attitude model.

For customers looking at PCP (Personal Contract Purchase), a £1,250 deposit contribution is available for those choosing to finance the Attitude model through Suzuki Financial Services. A low customer deposit of £1,482 is then all that's required resulting in monthly payments of just £149 over 48 months.

An optional payment of £4,761 would then be required to keep the car at the end of the agreement.
