The New Swift weighs about 840 kg, which is over 100 kg lighter

Still a ways to go from Mazda but sure

>>17071708
It also became more ugly

Yeah but will it have a turbo or still be a piece of shit?

to be quite frank I find it a bit suspicious.

the car is aggressively priced to be competitive but still weights a lot less then the competition.
WHERE is all the weight?
how do they do it?
I'm waiting for the ncap crash tests because I can't see how they got that shit so light without compromises in safety somewhere. light weight materials are too expensive and development is too.

It uses two-stroke Flintstone-cycle engine.

>>17071879
Took a page from Mazda's playbook and shaved a gram off every part?

>>17071879
No AC
No power anything
Thin seats
Tiny mosquito engine.

Pretty sure the Sport will get the 1.4 turbo fron the new Vitara as opposed to the 1.6 NA from last gen.

The thing is, crash safety gets EASIER when you get lighter, not harder. Same with emissions.
Also, if you design your car from the getgo to pass crash standards, rather than bolt together easily or fit a form factor, then it can be easy, esp. when you're only dealing with tiny engines.

The only bad part about it is opening the passenger window.

>implying all the fuckload security at the price of size, weight and visibility is good

>>17071879
And if you're so concerned about muh safety, get a Volvo

>>17071910
So actual stripper models so you can pick out all the options you want without paying extra for a "package" full of bullshit you don't want?
Based.

>>17071708
looks a bit like toyota sfr

>>17072139
I hope they do. Would buy the most basic one, as I barely use a car any way.

>>17071871
wikipedia says 1.4 BOOSTERJET (lel) will be introduced in 2018
140HP, sounds cool

>>17071708
So you're saying Suzuki builds a happy little jellybean with good visibility and very little bullshit that's very cheap and literally weighs as much as a first gen Twingo?

>>17071708
How is that even possible? That's fucking amazing. Finally a sports car without all the worthless technology that just makes it heavier. Can't wait until people start dropping k20s or b16s into them.

Isn't the Suzuki Alto lighter?

>>17072191
Probably, since it's also smaller.

>Is Suzuki, dare I Say it, /ourcompany/?
One good car doesn't make a company /ourcompany/. Same goes for Mazda's current lineup
