We review the Suzuki Jimny! Back in 1998 Suzuki made the Jimny, a no nonsense, no frills cheap 4×4 that could go almost anywhere. Since then the little 4×4 that could has gotten a string of very minor facelifts, though at its core it’s the same almost indestructible little off-roader that has endeared it in […]
We take Suzuki’s DZire out for a spin! A few days ago Suzuki Philippines handed us the keys to their DZire, their newest subcompact sedan based on their wildly popular Swift hatchback. To really see what the Swift DZire could do, I decided to take it up to Baguio during the weekend to see just […]

First introduced in the Philippines in 2004, the all-new Suzuki Swift retains the sporty subcompact character of its second-gen predecessor, but with added value of comfort fitted to Filipinos.

I must admit that I was one of those who underestimated the Suzuki APV. I guess it was because of its weird boxy shape appearance—some say ugly.
