‘Best Buy’ and ‘True MPG’ success for Suzuki Ignis at the 2022 What Car? Awards… for a THIRD YEAR in a row!

January 21, 2022
  • Best Small SUV for Value – Ignis 1.2 Dualjet Hybrid SZ3
  • Best ‘True MPG’ on rural roads and motorways – Ignis 1.2 Dualjet Hybrid

Following its success in 2020 and 2021, the Suzuki Ignis has again been awarded a ‘Best Buy’ and ‘True MPG’ winner at the 2022 What Car Awards? held in London on 20th January. Comprehensively judged by the editorial team, the Ignis was announced as the best value overall small SUV model.

Steve Huntingford, Editor of What Car? commented: “If you want a car with a high driving position but low costs, nothing does it quite like the Ignis. Not only does it offer bargain pricing, but its mild-hybrid petrol engine positively sips fuel; indeed, it delivers the best rural and motorway economy of anything we’ve ever put through our real-world True MPG test with figures of 74.8mpg and 53.3mpg respectively. As a bonus, the Ignis really embraces the ‘small’ in ‘small SUV’, making it a doddle to park and manoeuvre, yet it’s surprisingly spacious inside, comfortably accommodating four adults.”

Suzuki dominates What Car? True MPG tests

July 10, 2020

If fuel efficiency is most important to you when buying a car, look no further than the Suzuki small car range.

In the latest What Car? True MPG tests, which uses real-world driving to show what fuel economy you can really expect from a car, three Suzuki models featured in the top 10 best performing cars.

With a True MPG of 55.2mpg, the Suzuki Baleno, a practical and spacious hatchback, finished in 6th position. Another model discontinued in 2019, the Suzuki Celerio, a small and practical city car, secured 2nd place with a True MPG of 57.8mpg. Both models offer excellent value for money in the marketplace, delivering not only excellent fuel efficiency but also a good level of specification at an affordable price.

Scoring an impressive True MPG of 59.6mpg, the Suzuki Ignis Hybrid was the most efficient model What Car? tested. As a mild hybrid, the Ignis benefits from both an electric motor and an extremely frugal 1.2-litre petrol engine. Even with the 4-wheel drive option, the Ignis’ True MPG only drops to 53.3mpg.
