Toyota Aygo as a suitable alternative to Suzuki Swift

If you want a pocket rocket that’s actually practical, the Suzuki Swift mixes sprightly handling, a surprisingly roomy cabin and sensible running costs — ideal for buyers who want fun without sacrificing everyday usability. The Toyota Aygo, meanwhile, is the cheeky city specialist: cheaper to buy, delightfully nimble in traffic and easy to park, but smaller inside and less capable on longer runs, so pick it if your life is mostly inside town limits.

The Aygo is a cheeky city car that turns congested streets into a playground, with bold styling and sprightly manners that make parking a pleasure rather than a pain. Economical to run and surprisingly well equipped for its size, the Aygo is a smart choice for urban buyers who want personality without a premium price and a car that brings a smile to the daily commute.
