The 2018 Suzuki Swift range of configurations is currently priced from $9,800.
Our most recent review of the 2018 Suzuki Swift resulted in a score of 7.5 out of 10 for that particular example.
Carsguide Deputy News Editor Tom White had this to say at the time: The Swift Sport has been very carefully tuned and specified to match the asking price. It’s a delicate balance of an old-school hot-hatch drive experience with real-world comfort that allows it to exist in a market segment long abandoned by other Japanese makers.

The Suzuki Swift 2018 prices range from $8,910 for the basic trim level Hatchback GL to $21,450 for the top of the range Hatchback Sport (qld).
Unfortunately you’ve kept the Corolla too long, and have had to spend money to keep it going. Keep that in mind for the next one you buy.
You’re constrained by your $20,000 budget, but I would suggest you look at a Kia Rio, Mazda2, Mitsubishi Lancer, or Suzuki Swift. All should fall within your budget and all will give you a good run. If you were prepared to buy a used car that is one or two years old, you could consider a Toyota Corolla, or a Mazda3.
