Suzuki Swift 5dr 1.3 68 (1996)

The Suzuki Swift 5dr 1.3 68 (1996) reaches 60 mph in 11.94 s (100 km/h in 12.60 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 19.15 s, tripping the lights at 77.3 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 3.30 s and the eighth mile in 12.83 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the Swift 5dr 1.3 68

The 1996 Suzuki Swift 5dr 1.3 68 (1996) is a front-drive naturally aspirated car of 765 kg with 67 bhp, which works out at 88 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 3.30 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 12,765th quickest to 60 mph, and the 63rd quickest of the 93 Suzukis here. It traps higher than its 0-60 suggests — 77.3 mph, the 11,518th highest here — so it is a car that keeps going rather than one that simply leaves well. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Picked for a fair race, not just a matching 0-60: pace, power-to-weight and body shape all count, and at most one is from the same maker.

Questions

What is the Suzuki Swift 5dr 1.3 68 (1996) 0-60 time?
The Suzuki Swift 5dr 1.3 68 (1996) reaches 60 mph in 11.94 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 12,765th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Suzuki Swift 5dr 1.3 68 (1996) quarter mile time?
19.15 s at 77.3 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 12.83 s and clears the first 60 ft in 3.30 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Suzuki Swift 5dr 1.3 68 (1996) have?
67 bhp and 765 kg, which is 88 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, naturally aspirated, with 3 gears and a quoted top speed of 159 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Suzuki Swift 5dr 1.3 68 (1996)?
Closest here on pace: SEAT Cordoba 1.6 100 (11.75 s), Holden Astra 5dr 1.6 105 (12.11 s), Citroen C3 PureTech 83 (Mk3) (12.11 s). Each one can be raced against the Suzuki Swift 5dr 1.3 68 (1996) in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Suzuki Swift 5dr 1.3 68 (1996) is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
