Further, the Suzuki Swift scored 5 points and 71 per cent in case of the safety assist features installed in the car. The absorbing Euro NCAP results highlight the fact why Swift remains a global favourite among car enthusiasts.

      As per results of the test, the passenger cabin remained stable during frontal impact, with readings indicating nice protection to femurs and knees of both driver and co-occupants. In case of the side barrier impact, Swift demonstrated adequate protection of the chest, however, in case of side pole impact the chest protection was found to be only marginal. Further, the whiplash protection from rear impacts was found be above average. Coming to the child protection results, Suzuki Swift managed an almost perfect score in the frontal and side impacts with 3 year and 18 month dummies. Interestingly, the Swift is not so safe for pedestrians, since the front edge of bonnet scored zero points for the guard it provides to pedestrians' legs.
