Suzuki closes 2019 with 21% sales growth

Suzuki Philippines (SPH), the pioneer in compact car distribution, solidified its strong performance with a 21.17-percent increase covering all four quarters of the past year.

“We in Suzuki Philippines are proud to have ended 2019 on a high note.

“Last year was a landmark year for us and we share this success with our customers who continue to support our brand as we continuously provide them with more options that cater to their idea of driving in comfort with newer offerings geared toward the fulfillment of our mission,” he added.

The Ertiga, Vitara, Celerio emerged as the most favored models in the market as Suzuki’s top-selling vehicles. The three models complete the increase of total sales in 2019 with a combined record of 55 percent.

The Ertiga, with 34 percent share of total sales, solidified its spot as the market’s first choice. SPH positions the MPV as “practical without sacrficing style while offering good engine performance.”

The Vitara ended the year with an 11-percent share of total SPH sales. The award-winning vehicle is characterized by its bold styling and “inner refinement of a full-grown SUV.”

Completing the list is the Celerio, with a 10-percent share of total sales. With fuel efficiency among its many reputable features, the hatchback vehicle provides a spacious interior able to sit five passengers which makes it “the ideal ride for city trips or long travels.”

On top of these bestsellers is Suzuki’s fourth-generation 4×4 model, the all-new Jimny AllGrip Pro, that easily became the brand’s global favorite entry for the year. With its four-wheel drive system with reduction gear, AllGrip Pro “can satisfy the driving performance required by professionals to instantly respond and maneuver through difficult terrain.”
