Suzuki Swift S-Concept Appeared At Geneva

Suzuki Swift S-Concept Appeared At Geneva

 

Actually, Suzuki Swift is already a good car. It stands as something as an exception for Suzuki’s lineup to the latest additions with their SX4 and Kizashi coming to the market. However, calling it as a ‘swift’ might be some kind of a wishful thinking. You have to see this Swift S-Concept like in the picture above, which is presented by Suzuki at Geneva Motor Show.

 

Some of the car’s details have been released along with the car is taking the show. By seeing the details, I think that anyone will said that Swift has taken to a new level of extreme. Actually, the car looks very similar to the S2000 racing car that is created for the street if you are seeing it carefully with its 18 inch wheels, upgrades on its aerodynamic, and Recaro racing buckets.

 

The result is as you see above, looks like a very good combination. But as Suzuki is now behind some kind of an eclipsing Pikes Peak campaign, I think it will added some new excitements to the market with some upgrades in its mechanical aspect to match the sporty look on its styling.
