Some dealers in Vietnam have recently announced that they are taking deposits for the 2025 Suzuki Swift.
According to sources, the car will be imported directly from Japan, unlike previous models that were sourced from Thailand. This change in import origin may result in a price increase for the 2025 Swift, as Japan is not exempt from import taxes to Vietnam, unlike countries within the ASEAN bloc.
While this information has not been officially confirmed by Suzuki, it is highly likely, given their plans to shut down their Thai plant by the end of 2025.
Sales consultants have revealed that the upcoming Suzuki Swift 2025 in Vietnam will belong to the fourth generation. However, the exterior design remains largely unchanged from its predecessor. The new model features a redesigned grille, new LED headlights and taillights, and a set of more robust alloy wheels.
In terms of interior updates, the 2025 Suzuki Swift boasts a new dashboard design, but the area behind the steering wheel retains the analog instrument cluster with a small multi-information display. The climate control has been updated with buttons instead of the previous rotary knobs. The infotainment system now features a 9-inch floating screen, slightly smaller than the 10-inch unit found in the previous Vietnam-spec model. However, it now supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity.
It is unclear what powertrain options will be available for the Vietnam-spec Swift. In Japan, the Suzuki Swift is offered with two engine choices: a 1.2-liter gasoline engine producing 82 horsepower and 108 Nm of torque, or a hybrid system combining the same 1.2-liter engine with an electric motor that adds 3.1 horsepower and 60 Nm of torque.
Regardless of the engine choice, both options are paired with a continuously variable transmission (CVT). The Swift is available with either front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive, although the latter is unlikely to be offered in Vietnam.
Although the sales consultants have not disclosed the expected price of the 2025 Suzuki Swift in Vietnam, it is speculated to be higher than the previous model’s price of 550 million VND. The exact timeline for the car’s arrival in Vietnam is also yet to be determined.
