All New 2017 Suzuki Swift Hybrid Racer RS Is Here

There’s a fancy racecar version of the Suzuki Swift on show at the Tokyo Auto Salon. It’s called Suzuki Swift Racer RS.


Suzuki has shown the Swift Racer RS at the 2017 Tokyo Auto Salon, the Japanese equivalent of the SEMA. The vehicle is a show car and is not expected to go into production, even in limited numbers.
However, it has attracted a lot of attention from enthusiasts.

On the outside, the Racer RS gets a livery influenced by Suzuki’s MotoGP bike, 17-inch lightweight wheels and 195/45 tyres with a neon stripe around them. Meanwhile, the cabin has been completely stripped out and is fitted with Recaro bucket seats with harness, a roll-cage, a metal gearshift and more. Suzuki hasn’t mentioned what engine is there under the hood of the concept car.
