Depending upon the variant, the new Suzuki Swift will cost you Rs.2.5-2.9 million. It has left many with a lot of choices as a variety of new/used sedans and hybrids are available in this price range.
A good decision-making process involves analyzing all the options and choosing the most suitable one. Before making up your mind to buy the new Swift, you need to see the other options available at the same price.
Here is a quick overview of the new Suzuki Swift by OLX Motors
In this blog you’ll find those options. The following is a list of 10 cars which are available within the price range of Rs. 2.5-3.0 million.
Toyota Corolla
Corolla is among the most popular cars in Pakistan that you can get at the price of a new Swift. Obviously, you cannot get it in new condition. Depending upon its condition, you are most likely to get a 2015 to 2019 corolla Grande, GLI, or XLI at this price bracket. The average Toyota Corolla price in Pakistan for these models can vary between Rs.2.5 to 3.0 million.
Why buy a Corolla is an important question. For many, the answer is its type (sedan), name and popularity. Other reasons include a better engine, larger space, etc. However, you will not find 6-airbags in it as in the Swift’s top variant.

Honda Civic
No one can ignore a Civic when analyzing car buying options at a specific budget range. You might not be able to get the new shape, but the Civic rebirth (all models) is surely available at this price bracket. It has a lot of latest features and its name alone makes many excited. The average Honda Civic price in Pakistan for these models is around Rs.2.3-2.7 million. It means you can get this car even at the price of Swift’s base variant.

You can choose this car due to its premium interior, design, car type (sedan), impressive power output, etc. However, this Civic was manufactured more than 5 years ago and Swift is new. So, the decision is yours.

Toyota Prius
At the new Swift’s price, some old Prius models (2010/11/12/13/14) are easily available in the local market. The advantage of having a Prius is its hybrid technology that will save you petrol money. But these models are pretty old and will need a lot of maintenance and repair as well. The average Toyota Prius price in Pakistan for these models is Rs.2.2-3.0 million.

Aqua is another Japanese car option you can see before getting the new Swift. Aqua car price in Pakistan for model years (2014/15/16) is around Rs.2.5-3.0 million on average.

Toyota Vitz
Swift vs Vitz, it has been a popular comparison since the launch of Swift 2nd generation and it still continues. Toyota Vitz price in Pakistan is around Rs.2.3 – 3.0 million on average for the models (2015/16/17/18). However, you will have to check auction sheets and consider many other things before getting an imported car.
The advantages of buying this hatchback are its bigger body, superior quality (Japanese), latest interior (only latest models), etc. It’s only drawback is that it is a used car as compared to the all new Suzuki Swift.

However, the difference is not much so it might not be a better choice when you have a new Swift with modern safety and comfort features.

Should You Buy the New Swift or Look at Other Options?
There are no wrong answers here. It would all depend upon your requirements, preferences and taste.
If you like to have a new sedan from the above mentioned cars then go for it. But you will miss the safety features of the new Swift like 6 airbags. You can choose an imported Japanese car for its quality, fuel efficiency, better options, etc., especially if you don’t mind buying a used car.
There is no doubt Suzuki Swift 2022 has a lot to offer. But the dynamics of the local market can’t be ignored. With the increasing competition and availability of better cars in used condition, many might think twice before buying this new Suzuki hatchback.
Note: The price of used and Japanese cars in this list can vary depending upon various factors such as model, manufacturing year, mileage, condition, etc.
If your budget was Rs.2.5-3.0 million, would you buy the new Swift or some other car? Let us know in the comments.
