The Suzuki Swift First generation (2004–2010) is 369.5 cm long, 169 cm wide and 151 cm tall, with a 239 cm wheelbase. That makes it about 39 cm shorter than the average 5-door hatchback in our guide (409 cm across 212 versions). In size it is closest to the Nissan Micra (2002, 2.4 cm longer), the Toyota Vitz 5-door hatchback (2005, 5.5 cm longer) and the smart Forfour (2003, 5.7 cm longer).

Will it fit my garage?

Assumes a UK standard parking bay of 4.8 × 2.4 m and a typical UK single garage of 4.8 × 2.4 m inside (2.1 m high) with a 7 ft × 6 ft 6 in (213 × 198 cm) up-and-over door. Where we have no width-with-mirrors figure we add 20 cm to the body width. “Comfortably” leaves about 60 cm to walk round and open a door; “tight” means it goes in but getting out is awkward. Garages and bays vary a lot — measure yours and use the garage fit checker. For guidance only.
