The Suzuki Swift that is currently available in Japan and Europe will be on display at the the Tokyo Motor Show with a plug-in concept. The Swift Hybrid concept will feature a plug in series hybrid that uses an electric motor for propulsion and a 660cc gas engine to power the lithium-ion battery packs for extended range. A unique feature of the Swift Hybrid is the mounting of the battery packs in the center console and extending them into the rear seat area. The electric motor is 54kW with about 74 HP turning the front wheels. There is no word of this concept being available in the United State yet, however, Suzuki is planning to bring a Swift over for the next model year.
