At least one new 2017 Swift RS Hybrid is on SG roads!

I saw another one in Red....the back seems smaller...

 

But overall looks quite stylish

The front and new rims are nice but the backside looks mehhh. Saw most PIs selling it at around 82k.

 

Pricing close to the old swift when champions was clearing stock (lowest at 81k).

 

Swift hybrid parf should be $2.5k when scrap due to rebates while the previous gen swift parf is around 5.5k.

 

Pretty good and decent price for a hybrid when the rest are selling all above 100k for hybrid cars. Only downside is the warranty and battery replacement cost that will wipe out the savings.

No lah.... hybrid battery prices has stablize alot since the older days....wont cost an arm or leg (Only your toes) lol

 

The car looks more update and the interior is also nicer...

 

I when i see it in the showroom. Although spec wise is slightly larger, i cant feel the difference...lol it's still a swift cannot expect too much difference.

 

I still think the swift is a good choice for younger folks who is buying their first car and want to avoid boring b&b cars...it's still the cheapest hybrid in town...

Hi curious to ask SSS owners here. What grade of petrol are ur using ? Mine SSS is at 9th year and looking to renew COE. And due to recent 98 price at SGD 2.54 / Ltr, intending to switch to 95. I read, did some research and found that 95 might have "knocking" effect on the car. Just want to see what is the effect of having 95 and what will happen if I switch to 95 since on 98 for past 9 years.

Ive tried 95 and there is def knocking. So switched back to 98. I will not recommend 95 to sss. Personally, cost btw 98 and 95 is negligible comparing to engine repair.

Huh? 95 got knocking? 90% of drivers on the road use 95 leh.
