Our Verdict
A strong purchase option for those seeking a modern, low-mileage hybrid. The clean MOT history across three consecutive tests suggests a vehicle that has met regulatory standards without issue.
When inspecting this Swift, verify the service history to ensure the hybrid battery and DualJet engine have been maintained according to Suzuki's schedules. Although the MOT history shows no defects, you should check the hybrid system's integration and ensure the SHVS (Smart Hybrid Vehicle by Suzuki) system is functioning as intended.
Negotiate based on the mileage; while it is a clean record, it is higher than the model average of 6,669 per year. Check for any signs of wear on the interior and the condition of the red paintwork, which can sometimes show environmental wear if not regularly cleaned.
The 1242cc hybrid engine is designed for efficiency, making it a cost-effective choice for urban driving. As a hybrid electric (clean) vehicle, it should benefit from lower CO2 emissions, which often translates to more favourable tax bands.
Maintenance costs for the Swift are typically moderate, though you should budget for specialized checks on the hybrid components. Expect insurance groups for this model to be relatively accessible, making it a sensible choice for various driver profiles.
While this specific vehicle has had no MOT failures, the model aggregate data identifies headlamps as a common failure reason for this type of vehicle; ensure both units are clear and functioning correctly. Inspect the tyre tread and brake pads, as these are standard wear items that often lead to advisories.
Pay close attention to the hybrid battery's charging/discharging cycle during a test drive. Additionally, check the condition of the suspension components, as the MOT history for this specific registration is currently clear of any mechanical defects.
This 2020 Suzuki Swift Attitude DualJet SHVS is a relatively recent registration with 37,604 miles recorded at its last MOT. The vehicle has a consistent track record of passing its MOT tests without any recorded defects since its first test in 2023. Given the model aggregate data showing an average annual mileage of 6,669, this specific red hybrid sits slightly above that average, having covered approximately 7,500 miles per year.
The Suzuki Swift shows an average MOT pass rate of 89.9% across 368 analysed vehicles, suggesting generally reliable compliance with UK road standards.
