The Suzuki Alto is a small car with big appeal. Whether you’re a first-time car buyer, navigating congested city streets, or simply looking for a practical second car, the Alto delivers exceptional value.
Here’s why a used Suzuki Alto might be your perfect match:
The Suzuki Alto first hit UK roads in 1979, and it has since evolved into a quintessential city car. Featuring a stylish yet functional design, each generation of the Alto has built a reputation for delivering no-nonsense motoring at an affordable price.
Despite its compact size, the Alto offers surprising practicality. Later models come equipped with essential safety features, air conditioning, and even Bluetooth on certain trims. Under the bonnet, you’ll typically find a nimble 1.0-litre engine, perfect for city and suburban driving.
The Suzuki Alto has gone through several generations, with the most recent UK models (2009–2014) being the most commonly available in the used market.
The entry-level trims offer no-frills motoring, making them ideal for drivers who prefer simplicity. Expect basic features like manual windows and limited infotainment options.
These trims add a touch of convenience, including electric windows, central locking, and air conditioning.
The top-spec trims provide additional comforts like fog lights, alloy wheels, and optional automatic transmission.
Each trim differs slightly in features and price, so it’s worth considering your must-haves before making a decision.
All Suzuki Alto models come in a compact 5-door hatchback body style, designed for maximum practicality. There’s no separate saloon or estate version, but this uniformity makes choosing a trim simpler.
Preferred by driving purists, the manual transmission often feels more engaging and is generally more fuel-efficient.
Ideal for city dwellers dealing with stop-start traffic, the automatic trim prioritises ease and convenience.
When purchasing a used Suzuki Alto, there are a few essential checks to ensure you’re getting the best value for money.

Inspect the seats, controls, and electronics for wear and functionality.
