Ultra low fuel consumption Swift in Fleet World WLTP Challenge

October 16, 2019

At the recently held WLTP Challenge organised by Fleet World magazine, Suzuki is pleased to announce that its Swift Attitude model achieved 73.32 mpg, representing a 21.92 mpg improvement over the official WLTP fuel consumption regulation introduced for all new car registrations since September 2018.

Attitude is powered by Suzuki’s renowned 1.2-litre Dualjet 4-cylinder 90HP petrol engine and was driven the 220 miles test route by Hayley Everett from Fleet World magazine. At the finishing point, Hayley managed to attain a 42.65 per cent improvement over the official combined WLTP figure.

Swift Attitude has a kerb weight of just 980kg and combined with its 1.2-litre Dualjet engine proved to be a strong competitor finishing third overall for recorded fuel consumption amongst a wide group of 13 petrol, diesel, hybrid and PHEV models that entered this year. Pure EV models from various manufacturers were in a separately judged group.

Price Point win for Celerio at the What Car? Used Car Awards

October 5, 2019

Suzuki GB PLC is pleased to announce a Price Point win for its Celerio model by What Car? Magazine. The Celerio was awarded Best City Car by the judging panel in the up to £5,000 category.

Used Cars Editor of What Car? Mark Pearson comments: “We’ve always loved the Celerio for its cheeky nature and practical interior, but when you add in its excellent reliability record and the extraordinary value it offers at this age and price point no other rival can come close. It can handle motorways with aplomb, and inside there’s space for four and a great view out, thanks to its tall windows. The fact that the car is recently off sale as a new car only adds further to its appeal on the used market”.

Vitara voted Best Small Crossover by CarGurus

October 2, 2019

Suzuki GB PLC is pleased to announce that its Vitara model has been voted as Best Small Crossover by online automotive website CarGurus UK in its Best Used Car Awards. Nominees were selected from car models that are at least two years old and then shortlisted on criteria including availability and search interest on CarGurus UK.

A projected 12-year value retention using CarGurus data was also considered and the expert media judging panel then weighed up the pros and cons of each shortlisted model in the class to determine the winners.

Chris Knapman, CarGurus UK Editor, said: “The Suzuki Vitara took the victory in the best used small crossover class due to its appealing blend of practicality, comfort, equipment, and a wide range of powertrain options that makes it possible for used car buyers to choose between two or four-wheel drive regardless of whether they want a petrol or diesel engine. Our judges also noted that CarGurus data shows the Vitara holds on to its value better than many other small crossovers, too.”

First launched in May 2015, Vitara remains the best-selling model in the Suzuki range with annual sales of around 12,000 units in the UK and as a new car is available with 1.0 and 1.4-litre Boosterjet petrol engines.
