    I have an Audi RS 6 and my wife has a Swift. I like the Swift more than the Audi, for driving around town.

      Hola, apologies for the delay in response. That Audi RS 6 is my dream car bro🥺. Must feel like heaven driving it...
      I totally agree with you on that one, Swift is perfect for daily drive. Very frugal and punchy in town👌. I also drive a Swift GLX as my daily drive too, amazing ride

    You don't drive to empty. A full tank is R700 right now when it's on empty / orange. Also it averages 5.1L per 100km. It's a lot better on fuel than most cars but it's around the same as other small cars. It's not very powerful so it's built for the city streets, not JHB to CPT drives. It doesn't overtake very quickly. 7/10

    • @thato_automgijimi
      @thato_automgijimi  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      True💯 especially on power. That 1.2 engine is built for short drives and doesn't like going up halls. But in town, the power is adequate enough for robot to robot races

    Hola bro, what is your take on Suzuki Swift GL Automatic?

    • @thato_automgijimi
      @thato_automgijimi  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Awe bro, apologies for the delay in response. The previous Gen Swift has an AMT gearbox which has many complaints, it's very loud on the road and gear changes takes forever.
      The 2024 new Swift are paired with a CVT gearbox which is a lot more refined and I will recommend this one if you are looking for auto.

    What the difference from this engine to the one on the grand i10 1.2?

    • @thato_automgijimi
      @thato_automgijimi  ปีที่แล้ว

      The engines are actually the same, they're all powered by a 61kw and 114Nm. But the Swift has a better 0-100 time of 12.0sec and a top speed of 170km/h while the i10 takes 12.3sec with a top speed of 167km/h

    It doesnt have P on the gearbox?

    • @thato_automgijimi
      @thato_automgijimi  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That is very good question, I also didn't notice it. But here's what it says on the internet hopefully it helps.
      "Suzuki vehicles equipped with the AGS system do not have a P position. Meaning these vehicles do not have a parking lock in their transmission. So the driver will either have to use the D or R position of the gear stick while parking"

    Howsit my brother. I had a question and wanted your advice on it. I'm currently getting a deal at a suzuki dealership for a 2023 new GLX for 221k all inclusive. Do I go for it or save up for a baleno GL?

    • @thato_automgijimi
      @thato_automgijimi  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It's all about Preference, my brother. The interior of the Baleno GL is a turnoff for me, it's very basic, and that infotainment screen is awful, but pros is you're getting a bigger car, with more space than the Swift plus a more punchy engine 77kw.
      The Swift GLX on the other side it's more fun to drive, light on fuel, will be cheaper on insurance too but biggest downside is boot space, you won't be moving houses with that boot space, but if you hardly do long trips will full luggages then it's a perfect choice. Compare the two, preferably test drive both and see which one would suit your budget most🤝
