Toyota 86 Vs 2018-Suzuki Swift Sport
As im looking for my next new car I want similiar things the 86 is giving me low weight, cheap thrills, low running cost and good on fuel but in a four door.
I'm contemplating the Suzuki Swift Sport 7-8 grand cheaper brand neww it has a 970 KG Kerb weight (something I will never achieve with the 86) and 1.4 liter 140HP engine with 240NM of torque (86 has more HP but is a 2.0 thirstier engine). Suzuki say the car does 8.1 second but people actually testing the car show the car does it in a healthy 7.1-7.5 second's and the Dyno number is really 150-155HP. Looking at this car it does not seem like I'm upsizing (Going to a better car) or I'm downsizing (Going to a lesser car) they seem to be two cars on a similar plain. They are both not refined by any means road noise, cheap plastics account for same situation. Although the Suzuki seems to be kitted out rather nicely compared to the 86 it features better safety technology.
I'm sure with a free flowing exhaust and a dyno tune the Suzuki Sport will make 180-190HP and with the Kerb weight no NA Toyota 86 is keeping up.
