</div>In 2003, Suzuki added a sports grade to the Swift. This car was called "Swift Sport" (Ignis Sport in the European market).<br>

It was inspired by the Ignis Super 1600, which was competing in the JWRC at the time, with wider wheel treads, a 1.5L engine, and a 5-speed manual transmission. It also features semi-bucket seats co-developed with RECARO, and carbon-like panels on various parts are eye-catching.<br>
In the JWRC, it is called the "Yellow Bullet" because of its small yellow body (according to official information from Suzuki), and in Japan it is called the "Big Man's Vehicle" for an unknown reason.<br>
It is also known for the episode that when a Swift Sport rolled over in Shutoko, the driver behind the car was more worried about the wheel than the occupants' condition because of the high performance of the shock-absorbing body called "TECT".<br>

Although the model name HT81S can be said to be the first model of Swift Sport, it is officially considered to have never existed in the history of Swift Sport due to the fact that the name was not unified internationally. However, there is no end to the number of Suzuki fans who are still attracted by its high cost performance and nimble driving performance.<br>
