Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for buyers seeki
Given the low mileage of 12,354 miles, your primary focus should be verifying that the full service history is present to ensure the hybrid system and CVT gearbox have been maintained according to Suzuki's schedule. Because this is a 2022 model, check if any manufacturer recalls have been addressed, particularly regarding the hybrid battery or electrical systems.
When negotiating, ask for documentation regarding the hybrid battery health check, which is often part of official servicing. Since the vehicle is a high-spec SZ5 trim, ensure all electronic features and the CVT transmission operate smoothly without any hesitation or unusual noise during a test drive.
As a 1.8L hybrid, this Swace is designed for fuel efficiency, likely placing it in a lower insurance group and tax band compared to traditional petrol counterparts. The Euro 6 status ensures it remains compliant with most UK Ultra Low Emission Zones (ULEZ).
Maintenance costs for Suzuki hybrids are generally predictable, though specialized hybrid components may require authorised garage attention. Expect annual running costs to be relatively moderate, driven primarily by fuel consumption and standard servicing requirements.
The MOT history shows a single minor failure in January 2026 for a defective nearside front windscreen wiper blade. While this was resolved, it is worth checking that all wiper components and the washer system are functioning correctly to avoid similar minor failures.
Inspect the hybrid system's transition between electric and petrol power to ensure it is seamless. Additionally, check the condition of the tyres and brakes; with such low mileage, they should show minimal wear, but uneven wear could indicate alignment issues.
This 2022 Suzuki Swace SZ5 HEV CVT is a relatively recent registration with significantly low mileage, having covered just over 12,000 miles since January 2022. The MOT history is sparse due to the vehicle's age but shows only one minor defect regarding a wiper blade in early 2026. The hybrid powertrain and Euro 6 status make it a contemporary choice for efficiency-conscious drivers.
No aggregate reliability data is currently available for the Suzuki Swace SZ5 HEV CVT model.
