What is Suzuki’s fastest car?

-

A lumbering plugin hybrid SUV it might be but technicall­y the Across is the fastest car that Suzuki has ever built And by ‘built’ we mean ‘replaced the Toyota badge on’ You see the car’s …—litre fourcylinder engine combines with a pair of electric motors for ˜˜bhp and by working together they propel the Across from ˜™„…mph in six seconds flat That’s more than two seconds quicker than the Swift Sport a car that Suzuki had only previously bettered in terms of accelerati­on with the shortlived Kizashi saloon

If we’re going on top speed alone then the fastest Suzuki ever built isn’t a car at all› the Hayabusa motorcycle peaked at around mph when it was introduced in shortly before bike manufactur­ers got round a table and decided it’d be best if they all limited their machines to a sluggish †„mph before lawmakers did it for them
