in Surf Lifesaving New

reporter John Cosgrove 

talks to Mt Pleasant 

resident Roger Smith, 

who was awarded a 50- 

year badge for his service 

to the North Beach club 

THE ONLY TIME Roger Smith 

ever feared for his life was when 

another club’s surf boat crashed 

into his during a surf carnival. 

“We were in big, big waves at 

the nationals and while our boat 

was in a good spot for speed 

between two waves, I watched as 

another boat tried to come in over 

the top of us. 

“Those boats were big and 

heavy and required a lot of skill 

to use them, especially in rough 

surf. 

“If they dumped you out, you 

hoped like hell you came out of it 

alive,” he said.

Roger, of Mt Pleasant, is a 

North Beach clubbie, has been 

for decades. 

The 67-year-old received a

Roger told reporter John

Old craft skills on show at festival 

BANKS PENINSULA is hosting 

a range of exciting events at the 

Christchurch Heritage Festival. 

The theme this year is People 

and Place – our stories revealed. 

City council head of urban 

design, regeneration and 

heritage Carolyn Ingles said it’s a 

celebration of the diverse people 

who have made their home on 

the peninsula over time. 

“There is a rich programme 

of events with opportunities to 

explore some of the fascinating 

stories behind the places and 

people of Banks Peninsula.” 

A highlight will be the 

Craftmasters’ festival of heritage 

crafts. Skills such as printing, 

blacksmithing and bread making 

once essential to 19 th- century 

peninsula life but now in danger 

of dying out will be revisited 

at Okains Bay Museum over 

Labour Weekend. 

New to the festival are tours of 

the newly-developed Ōhinetahi 

Geosite on Sunday. There will be 

interactive displays at Allandale 

Reserve and guided walks along 

the foreshore track using new 

interpretation panels. 

Visitors can gain new insight 

into the early settlers who 

established the first formal 

European settlement in the 

South Island with a tour of 

Akaroa’s cemeteries on Sunday 

and October 24. A visit to 

Akaroa Museum during the 

two-week festival will reveal 

what archaeology can tell us 

about the lives of people who 

lived in the township during the 

19 th- century. 

The history of recreation on 

Lyttelton Harbour is explored 

in an exhibition of photos at

Adventure playgrounds, skate parks, archery, golf, trampolining and gaming competitions were just 

some of the activities on offer at the Sumner-based Fuse holiday programme. Fuse manager Gareth 

Davies said the activities have been well supported and were running full most days in spite of 

Covid-related restrictions. He said the children loved all the activities so far but especially enjoyed 

making their own pizzas during their visit to Fire&Slice Woodfired Pizzeria on Monday. Fuse is an 

initiative of the Shoreline Youth Trust, a non-profit organisation set up over 20 years ago to provide 

community services for the young people living in the Sumner, Redcliffs, and Mt Pleasant areas. 

Davies said they hope to hold an event to mark the anniversary later this year.

‘I often saw the odd shark or two out there’ 

• From page 1 

Fortunately, the other boat 

went under Roger’s boat and all 

aboard were safe. 

For the former businessman, 

to be awarded a 50-year badge 

at the recent Surf Lifesaving 

New Zealand national awards 

of excellence, was a humbling 

experience. 

“I was surprised to be named 

as a recipient, I’m not finished 

yet as I still think I have much to 

offer the sport,” he said. 

Since he was a teenager Smith 

(now 67) has been heavily involved 

in both surf lifesaving and 

rugby. 

A former past president at both 

the North Beach Surf Lifesaving 

Club and the Shirley Rugby 

Club, Smith said he still helps 

out where he can on both club 

committees. 

“I love working behind the 

scenes, and do what I can for the 

good of the clubs. I feel it’s good 

for any sporting club to have a 

few old heads in the mix bringing 

their experience to the club.” 

Smith was 18 when he trained 

for his first season as a lifeguard 

at North Beach. 

“It was a magnificent time back 

then, a wonderful way to be part 

of something that helped the 

community. 

“Back then it was the amateur 

era and membership at surf clubs 

was very strong. 

“There were surf carnivals 

everywhere and we used to travel 

far and wide to get to the whole 

day affairs.” 

He recalls many great trips, as 

all the clubs seem to always be 

on the same ferries at the same 

time, so there were many stories 

he said he could tell, but they 

wouldn’t be suitable for readers. 

However, he did recall one trip 

to the nationals aboard the TEV 

Maori interisland ferry: “Some 

members partied too hard on the 

day sailing to Wellington so they 

decided to sleep it off in their car 

but woke the next morning to 

find they were back at Lyttelton, 

wharfies had left their car aboard 

and they had done a round trip 

overnight. 

“North Beach was a wonderful 

place to spend every weekend 

during the summer, my family 

grew up around me on those 

beaches.” 

His sons Dan and Ryan followed 

him into the sport. 

“In those days we did a lot a 

fundraising every weekend in the 

Brighton Mall, and we felt we had 

ownership of the club.” 

In the 1970s all rescues were 

undertaken by four-man belt and 

line teams, they also used surf 

skis, canoes and big heavy surf 

boats. 

“You would be rostered on 

a patrol team of five to six 

members and on days when the 

beaches were crowded you not 

SKILLS: 

Roger Smith, 

second 

from left, 

loves the 

camaraderie 

of surf 

lifesaving, 

only watched what was happening 

between the flags but also 

around the edges.” 

He said patrolling is more 

about preventative actions rather 

than actual rescues. 

“You had to concentrate, 

look for the telltale signs that 

swimmers were starting to get 

into trouble by drifting outside 

the flags, or out of their depth in 

the waves, and then go and help 

them out. 

“We tried to stop things happening 

before they got worse.” 

Rips were the cause of many 

callouts and he still remembers 

his first big rescue. 

“One day a rip just developed 

out of nowhere, one minute the 

surf was okay then suddenly 

seven to eight people were being 

whisked away, everybody jumped 

in to help out and we quickly got 

everyone out safely.” 

He said it’s only natural that 

people panic when a rip grabs. 

“They should remember that 

all the sea is doing is going out 

along a ditch, just as quickly as 

it appears and drags you out it 

also quickly deposits you on a 

sandbank behind the breakers, 

but sadly people panic and panic 

kills.” 

His advice – just float with the 

rip and hold your hand up. 

“Usually we would only swim 

about 100 to 200m out beyond 

the surf but on the boats, I often 

saw the odd shark or two out 

there. 

“People would be surprised 

that there is more wildlife than 

they think out there beyond the 

surf.” 

Smith experienced the many 

different technological changes 

the sport went through, from the 

introduction of the inflatable rescue 

boat which revolutionised the 

speed of rescues and capabilities 

of clubs, to handheld radios aiding 

the communication between 

crews and shore. 

He said the recent crop of 

reality surf programmes have 

helped raise awareness of water 

safety, but he reminds people to 

always swim between the flags 

and watch the surf conditions.

Welcoming refugees with gift packs 

KIND-hearted Canterbury 

humanitarians are helping 

with the integration of Afghani 

refugees into New Zealand 

society. 

A group of 250 or so refugees 

will soon become Kiwis 

following their forced escape 

from a war-torn land. 

Jo Bailey is the co-founder of 

Uniting Canterbury Women, 

a group that formed after the 

Christchurch terror attacks on 

March 15, 2019. The group is 

now planning to deliver gift 

packs to the refugees. 

The small but dedicated group, 

brings women of different 

cultures, ethnicities and religions 

together. 

Bailey and the group have 

created a series of projects 

since the initial focus on 

those impacted by the terror 

attacks. The most recent, 

supported by a Givealittle 

crowdfunding campaign, 

has been to raise money for 

individual welcome packs for the 

Afghan refugees. 

Bailey has been working 

with a group including Ryman 

Healthcare sales adviser Anthea 

Johnson, who is also her 

neighbour. 

Ryman will pay for the 

freighting of about 250 welcome 

packages to the refugees, living 

for now in Immigration NZ’s 

Mangere Refugee Resettlement 

Centre. Many arrived with 

just the clothes on their backs 

following a Taliban military 

offensive. 

“They’ve been through such 

trauma, absolute hell,” Bailey 

said. 

“They’ve left family members 

behind, I mean it’s horrific. 

They’ve been through terrible 

times to get here.” 

“(We want to demonstrate) 

that we care, that they’re wanted, 

that they’re loved here. And we 

wanted to make sure they had 

some lovely things to remind 

them of home and also welcome 

them to New Zealand,” Bailey 

said. 

Bailey said she was in part 

inspired by Christchurch café 

operator Zhara Hussaini. 

Hussaini had arrived in 

Christchurch at the age of 12, 

as a refugee, and has spoken 

publicly about the warmth of

Afghanistan. 

Kiwis she experienced since her 

arrival. 

Bailey reached out to Hussaini 

following the March 15 attacks, 

and subsequent vigils. The 

two found common ground 

and, with four others, formed 

Uniting Canterbury Women. It 

helped that Hussaini was already 

an advocate for the Afghan 

community. 

Said Bailey: “I just wanted 

to continue on the feelings of 

goodwill (towards minorities) 

that were happening in the 

community. Like all disasters, 

once tragedies (dissipate) people 

go back to their normal lives. 

“When Zahra arrived in 

Christchurch at the age of 12, she 

spoke no English. Today, her life 

is incredibly full as an advocate 

for the Afghan community, 

an interpreter, student, and 

a restaurant owner. She is an 

inspirational young woman.” 

The packs includes teas, spices, 

Linden Leaves products, Aroha’s 

Way (a children’s book) and 

backpacks. Other items such 

as silk krama, or scarves, made 

by a Cambodian group could 

prove important to the Afghani 

women. 

“So effectively the women can 

wear these as hijab,” Bailey said. 

“Everyone will get something 

really special, which is really 

nice.”

THE IMPACT of cannabis use 

among expectant mothers is 

the focus of ground-breaking 

research led by a genetics expert 

at Canterbury University. 

Funded by the Canterbury 

Medical Research Foundation, 

the year-long study aims to determine 

whether using the drug 

during pregnancy can lead to 

health effects already associated 

with tobacco. 

Dr Amy Osborne, a senior lecturer 

in the School of Biological 

Sciences, has already established 

that heavy cannabis use has an 

impact on human DNA, with 

the effect stronger in people who 

also smoke cigarettes. 

That research, published in 

May last year, has been followed 

by this US-inspired probe to discover 

if a woman’s cannabis use 

can alter their offspring’s DNA. 

“We know smoking tobacco 

during pregnancy is harmful, 

but the problem is a lot of people 

are using cannabis for morning 

sickness because they think it’s 

safe,” Osborne said. 

“In the US it’s also being 

used as an opioid replacement 

therapy for pregnant women, a 

replacement for hard and more 

illicit drugs: ‘You’re not going 

to do heroin while you’re 

pregnant, but here, have some 

cannabis’.” 

Osborne said some of the 

research Stateside assessing the 

effects of cannabis use during 

pregnancy revealed some behavioural 

impacts similar to 

tobacco. 

Her latest study, which starts 

this month, dovetails with DNA 

data already available through 

the Christchurch Health and Development 

Study, an investigation 

which started more than 40 

years ago and originally included 

1265 people. 

Osborne has already sourced 

DNA data from cannabis users 

among that cohort, CMRF 



Expectant mums focus of cannabis use study 

backing worth $100,000 now 

enables the Londoner and two 

staff to access data from mothers 

and their offspring held at the 

University of Bristol in the 

United Kingdom. 

The UK data is vital because it 

covers DNA from the parent and 

their children because the CHDS 

information doesn’t include the 

parents. 

“We can use the UK data to inform 

what we’d be looking for in 

the New Zealand cohort. We can 

streamline what we’re looking 

for so it means we’re more likely

effect of cannabis 

use by pregnant 

women thanks

to get a better idea of what’s happening 

at the molecular level,” 

Osborne said. 

“In New Zealand our sample 

sizes are a lot smaller so if 

we want to statistically show 

associations – and it’s all about 

statistical power in genetics – 

the more samples you have the 

more likely you are to detect 

something.” 

Ultimately, Osborne would 

like to develop a mine of information 

from pregnant New 

Zealanders. 

“It would be amazing. We haven’t 

explored that as an option 

yet but depending on what we 

find it may be that’s naturally 

where our research goes. Then 

again that requires clinicians, 

epidemiologists, nurses and a lot 

of people recruiting as well,” she 

said. 

Osborne emphasised the 

study was impartial regarding 

cannabis. 

“We’re not trying to say 

‘cannabis is bad for you or 

cannabis is good for you’. 

It’s really important to make 

the distinction that this is 

basic biology, basic biological 

research,” she said. 

“What we’re trying to do is understand 

a little bit more of the 

impacts it (cannabis use) might 

be having. 

“Whether that’s the detrimental 

impacts that come with 

long-term use or whether it’s 

the medicinal and therapeutic 

impacts, we just don’t know.” 

Osborne said while cannabis 

use can be detrimental for heavy 

users, it could be beneficial 

regarding pain management, the 

treatment of chronic illnesses 

and end of life care. 

“If we can put some 

empirical meat on the bone 

and understand a bit about the 

molecular pathways that may 

or may not be involved we can 

start to understand a lot more, 

she said. 

Edith Cavell Corner 

Edith Cavell Lifecare manager Scott was delighted share with us that 

Registered Nurse Aakriti Neupane who just completed her NETP 

programme was given feedback from the nursing council that her 

portfolio was excellent, and she has been approved as Competent 

under PDRP. 

“Sadly for Aakriti she wasn’t able to attend any graduation ceremonies 

both for her Bachelor of Nursing degree completed last year or her recent 

celebration ceremony planned for 6th Sept on completion of NETP due 

to Covid lockdowns”, says Scott. To compensate, Edith Cavell held a 

morning tea to present her with her NETP completion certificate attended 

by her partner and her sister with her mother and father included via zoom 

in Nepal. Her mother is a very experienced, senior nurse in Nepal and her 

sister is completing her Bachelor of Nursing degree here in Christchurch 

this year. Maria Crone, Clinical Services Manager at Edith Cavell says they 

had an opportunity to nominate NETP nurses for one of 3 regional awards. 

“I nominated Aakriti for the Excellence in Professional Practice award and 

she won!” she says. She surprised her and her family by announcing the 

award at the morning tea. 

NETP Canterbury Region prize for Excellence in professional practice: 

Commitment to consolidation of critical thinking, clinical reasoning, 

challenge and influence practice, higher level of professionalism 

Maria and Aakriti outside Edith Cavell Lifecare. 

Edith Cavell NETP graduate’s 

success comes with a top prize! 

Maria says I was contacted by Rebecca Heyward who is the Nurse 

Coordinator, Nursing Workforce Development – Aged Residential Care for 

CDHB. Her words were, “I wanted to get in touch with you - the reviewers 

have reviewed who the prize winners should be from the nominations 

received and decided that Aakriti is a very deserving recipient of the 

Excellence in Professional Nursing award - I read her nomination as well 

and it was exceptional, fantastic she’s done so well this year. Many thanks 

Maria and all your team around her for supporting her and giving her the 

right environment to thrive” 

Maria and all at Edith Cavell are very proud of Aakriti and the team of 

Registered Nurses who supported her in her first year of practice.

Treasures from the past: The Colonists’ Hall 

THE OLDEST public library 

in Canterbury was originally 

based in one of the Canterbury 

Association’s Immigration 

Barracks on lower Oxford St that 

housed colonial settlers bound for 

the newly-purchased Canterbury 

Plains. 

The Reading Room was set 

aside on June 30, 1851, just six 

months into the venture with an 

initial collection of around 500 

volumes, apparently gifted by 

newly-arrived colonists with too 

much baggage. 

The librarian, a Mr Calvert, 

organised the collection and the 

annual subscription service of 

one guinea that included Canterbury’s 

first newspaper, the 

Lyttelton Times. 

The Colonists’ Society was 

established the following year in 

1852 and took over the running 

of the Reading Room, expanding 

its collection and offering 

subscribers access to newspapers 

from across the Australasian colonies, 

as well as The London Times. 

The library became a social 

centre of the bustling port town 

of Lyttelton and in 1867 the Colonists’ 

Hall was built to house the 

growing collection and service 

the community’s insatiable appetite 

for information from around 

the British Empire. Thus on November 

22, 1867, the library and 

its Reading Room took over the 

hall’s entire ground floor, and the 

librarian, a Mr W Godfrey, dutifully 

kept it open from 10am-4pm 

and 6-10pm daily. 

The Lyttelton Borough School 

was built next door in 1875 and 

made good use of the library and 

study facilities for its students 

and teachers alike for the next 27 

years. 

The Colonist’s Society managed 

the library’s affairs for 

two decades until, in 1887, the 

Lyttelton Borough Council took 

over and established the Lyttelton 

Library under the Public Library 

Act 1869. 

The Colonists’ 

Hall on the 

left sits beside 

the Lyttelton 

Borough 

School in the 

1890s. (Far 

right) – The 

hall in a state 

of disrepair. 

The Colonist’s Hall, nonetheless, 

remained the site for the 

library for another 15 years before 

it finally outgrew the building and 

was moved to the corner of Oxford 

St and Sumner Rd in 1902. 

The old Colonist’s Hall 

remained in use for several 

decades after, until it fell into 

disrepair and was demolished in 

the 1940s. As for Canterbury’s 

oldest library, now a venerable 

170-year-old institution, you can 

of course find it on the corner 

of London and Canterbury Sts 

where it has been since April 

1999.

Spring has finally sprung – and while it’s wonderful to see all the daffodils 

and cherry blossoms in bloom, this time of year can be brutal for those of us 

with allergies and hay fever! 

The Canterbury nor-wester is famous for blowing pollen all over town – 

and while heading indoors can seem like the only escape from air-borne 

allergens, these microscopic dust and pollen particles can actually build 

up in your heat pump over time. Getting your heat pump cleaned every 

12-months is the best way to keep the air circulating in your home fresh, 

clean and allergen-free – and Airify Christchurch is here to professionally 

tick one important job off your spring-cleaning to-do list!

The Women of Pearl Island 

by Polly Crosby 

A darkly beautiful dual-timeline novel with a captivating 

mystery, for fans of Diane Setterfield and Kiran Millwood 

Hargrave 

’Like a surreal cabinet of curiosities – haunting, eerie, 

evocative’ Bridget Collins, Sunday Times bestselling author 

of The Binding 

When Tartelin Brown accepts a job with the reclusive Marianne 

Stourbridge, she finds herself on a wild island with a mysterious history. 

Tartelin is tasked with hunting butterflies for Marianne’s research. But she 

quickly uncovers something far more intriguing than the curious creatures 

that inhabit the landscape. 

Because the island and Marianne share a remarkable history, and what 

happened all those years ago has left its scars, and some terrible secrets. 

As Tartelin pieces together Marianne’s connection to the island, she must 

confront her own reasons for being there. Can the two women finally face 

up to the painful memories that bind them so tightly to the past? 

Atmospheric and deeply emotional, The Women of Pearl Island is the 

captivating novel from the author of The Book of Hidden Wonders 

Over My Dead Body 

by Jeffrey Archer 

An unputdownable story of murder, revenge and betrayal from international 

number one bestseller Jeffrey Archer. THE CLOCK IS TICKING IN THIS 

ROLLERCOASTER RIDE OF A THRILLER… 

In London, the Metropolitan Police set up a new Unsolved Murders Unit – a 

cold case squad – to catch the criminals nobody else can. 

In Geneva, millionaire art collector Miles Faulkner – convicted of forgery and 

theft – was pronounced dead two months ago. So why is his unscrupulous 

lawyer still representing a dead client? 

On a luxury liner en route to New York, the battle for power within a wealthy 

dynasty is about to turn to murder. 

And at the heart of all three investigations are Detective Chief Inspector 

William Warwick, rising star of the Met, and ex-undercover operative Ross 

Hogan, brought in from the cold. 

But can they catch the killers before it’s too late?

Suzuki Swift hybrid shows promise 

IT’S TAKEN some time for the 

Suzuki Motor Corporation to 

enter the hybrid market. 

Well, that doesn’t surprise me, 

Suzuki has long built smallish 

cars with small capacity, fuel efficient 

engines, even their largest 

were relative fuel misers. 

That being the case, there was 

no rush for Suzuki to go one step 

further into the electric/hybrid 

market, anyone who owns a Suzuki 

will tell you how inexpensive 

they are to run. 

However, a hybrid has arrived 

here and it comes in the 

form of the Swift, and it’s fair 

to say Suzuki is treading carefully, 

the Swift hybrid can only 

be described as a mild hybrid 

– don’t think Toyota Prius, the 

hybrid system is more like you 

would find on European cars 

such as those from BMW and 

Mercedes-Benz. 

In mechanical terms, Suzuki’s 

system utilises an electric motor 

to assist the engine in a parallel 

configuration, it is powered 

by a lithium-ion battery that is 

charged as the car decelerates and 

brakes, there is no electric-only 

mode of propulsion involved. 

While cruising, the battery 

helps power all of the additional 

electrical systems such as safety 

features, air conditioning, Bluetooth 

and smartphone connectivity, 

which means the engine 

spends more of its energy driving 

the wheels. 

There are a multitude of display 

graphics which indicate to the 

driver how the system is operating 

so that he or she can get 

maximum fuel economy benefits. 

The result of all of this is 

Suzuki’s claimed 4.1-litre per 

100km combined cycle fuel 

usage average. That compares to 

the standard Swift which has a 

4.8l/100km figure, so there are 

gains to be made there; however, 

there is a little trade-off, the Swift 

hybrid requires premium fuel 

which is more expensive than the 

standard 91 octane. 

Nevertheless, if you are keen on 

cutting down emissions and like 

that bottom line of 4.1l then the 

hybrid does have benefits, and 

that figure is very achievable. 

During my time with the 

evaluation car the fuel usage 

readout was constantly listing 

around 5.2l/100km with around 

4l/100km registering instantaneously 

at 100km/h (engine speed 

1900rpm). 

Powering the Swift hybrid is a 

four-cylinder engine of 1197cc. 

It is a smooth, quiet engine 

which cuts out at idle and restarts 

automatically when acceleration 

is requested – almost without 

notice such is the refinement that 

has gone into the mechanical 

elements. 

The 1.2-litre unit is rated at 

61kW and 107Nm, the latter available 

at just 2800rpm which means 

there is available torque on offer, 

SMOOTH: Design-wise, the Swift is a popular shape. 

SUZUKI SWIFT HYBRID: European specification and placement of controls. 

and if you add in the moderate 

amount of electrical assistance 

acceleration is more than satisfactory. 

A standstill to 100km/h time 

of 11.5sec is possible, along with a 

7.7sec time to make an 80-120km/ 

h highway overtake. 

Drive is carried through a 

continuously variable automatic 

transmission. By sheer nature of 

its simplicity it, too, helps promote 

fuel efficiency. The change in ratio 

is seamless, providing an overall 

feeling of smoothness. There is 

also a sport mode should the driver 

like the revs hunting higher. 

I tried to replicate the type of 

driving the Swift hybrid would 

most likely be subjected to on a 

daily basis – a suburb to city commute, 

a trip to the supermarket, 

and a weekend excursion. There 

are no surprises here, the Swift in 

all forms functions well in those 

situations. The hybrid hasn’t lost 

sight of the Swift concept, an 

easy-to-drive model with as much 

practicality as you can get in a 

small car. See, at just 3.8m, the 

Swift makes good use of its compact 

proportions, it is a five-seater 

at a pinch. 

On the open road it is quiet and 

composed when presented with a 

tight corner or two. The Swift sits 

somewhat low at 1.5m so there 

isn’t a lot of body movement, even 

though the rear suspension is a 

tube beam type there is enough 

• Price – Suzuki Swift hybrid 

Limited, $28,500 

• Dimensions – Length, 

3845mm; width, 1735mm; 

height, 1495mm 

• Configuration – Fourcylinder, 

front-wheeldrive, 

1197cc, 61kW, 

107Nm, continuously 

variable automatic. 

• Performance – 

0-100km/h, 11.5sec 

• Fuel usage – 4.1l/100km 

suspension movement to promote 

a controlled ride even when road 

ripples threaten balance. 

Interestingly, the hybrid is built 

in Japan but is destined mostly 

for the European market. That 

being the case, there are a few 

little quirks the traditional Suzuki 

owner would need to adjust to. For 

one, the indicator and wiper stalks 

have been transposed, and why 

European buyers like rear manual 

window winders eludes me, but 

that’s what you get in Swift hybrid. 

Also, the hybrid model is sans sat 

nav but there is Apple Car Play 

and Android Auto. 

As with the entire Swift 

range, the hybrid gets a five-star 

Australasian New Car Assessment 

Program rating. That’s achieved 

by an abundance of safety features 

such as an advanced forward 

detection system which mitigates 

the chance of a collision, there are 

also other clever features such as 

adaptive cruise control, rear view 

camera and rear cross traffic alert. 

The Swift hybrid lists at $26,990 

in standard form, the evaluation 

car was a Limited specification 

model and it adds $15100, $2000 

if you want two-tone paint. 

These prices compare to 

$20,750 for the Swift GL ($22,990 

auto) non-hybrid. I guess that 

difference is a matter of equation 

as to whether the fuel saving 

benefits going forward, outweigh 

the extra cost. 

Suzuki has a fairly extensive 

model line-up, I will be interested 

to see how far the company takes 

its hybrid technology and whether 

it can be adapted to other 

engine configurations. 

In the interim, if you want 

something just that little bit different 

in your Swift purchase then 

the hybrid model still represents 

all those traditional Suzuki values 

but with the thought you are 

doing just a little bit to reduce 

emissions and benefiting the 

environment. 

To top it off, there’s also the 

benefits of the local dealership’s 

tempting maintenance 

programme – all in all there is 

lot to consider, but judging by 

my experience with Suzuki all 

the ingredients add up to healthy 

sales down under.
