Suzuki Swift Sport 1.4 Turbo, With 6-Speed Manual, Fan Car Drive Up Genting / YS Khong Driving

Жыл бұрын

It is always nice to drive a car with a manual transmission up our favorite road, and this time, we are very thankful to Mr. Leon Mok for the loan of his newly-acquired Suzuki Swift Sport 1.4 Turbo.
It took some hunting down, but Leon managed to get a Swift Sport Manual transmission off a grey-importer in the Klang Valley. The car is in very good condition, and everything was stock at the time of testing.
Apparently, Leon had already taken the car up to Genting on his own a couple of times, and he wanted to see how it performs in the hands of YS Khong.
Of course I jumped at the opportunity, and that is how this video was made.
All things said and done, the Swift Sport is a nice little pocket rocket that is surprisingly economical on fuel, and handles quite well - you can see for yourself in the video - please enjoy it, and let us have your comments below.

Our SSS was delivered in July. I wasn't brave enough to go for Champion Yellow so it is Speedy Blue. The car is only available with the 6 speed manual. The ratios are well chosen to allow you to use the performance, or for long distance on Motorways, relaxing with cruise control. We usually get 51 + mpg and when you need it then it can go .I have resisted getting it mapped 😂

@YSKhongDriving 11 ай бұрын

A fwd car basically understeers. If you get a waggly tail, stiffening the rear up helps. A stiffer rear end relative to the front reduces oversteer tendencies, but promotes understeer - so the balance between the rear and front also plays a part. Too much understeer is also not good.

So if you think the FE in slower, or lacking in performance versus this, you are absolutely entitled to your own opinion, just as I am to mine.
