Other things to consider: 

At a starting price of SAR 72,000 in KAS, the Suzuki Swift is one of the most affordable cars you can buy right now. The new 3-cylinder engine introduced by the Japanese automaker on this all-new 2024 hatch is well-refined and it is totally free of noise or any rattle. The car drives smoothly, and the engine is undoubtedly responsive and responds extremely well to your throttle responses. It is a sporty, practical, and compact car but being the safest is not the big strength of this car, and globally the safety ratings have been far lower. So, if you want a safe car then you might look for alternatives or increase your budget to pick a higher-segment car.
