The Suzuki Swift (Japanese: スズキ・スイフト, Suzuki Suifuto) is a supermini car (B-segment) produced by Suzuki. The vehicle is classified as a B-segment marque in the European single market, a segment referred to as a supermini in the British Isles. Prior to this, the "Swift" nameplate had been applied to the rebadged Suzuki Cultus in numerous export markets since 1984.[2] The Swift became its own model in 2004.[3][4] Currently, the Swift is positioned between Ignis and Baleno in Suzuki's global hatchback lineup.
