With so many cars around today, it's no wonder every manufacturer strives to be better than the rest. Battling it out to have the coolest design or most advanced tech, they forget the basics. Meanwhile, the Suzuki Swace is simply brilliant. Unlike other cars, all it wants to do is save you money on fuel, make your drives effortless, and be reliable—all without making a big fuss about it. Unfortunately, it makes so little fuss that everyone forgets it exists. To bring it out of hiding, I drove the Swace Ultra every day for a week, and now I'm revealing the good and the bad parts.
