From strength to strength: Even more so after 20 years
It’s November 2004 and the all-new Suzuki Swift concept has just been launched at the Paris Motor Show. Fast forward exactly 20 years and the iconic Swift is one of Suzuki’s top sellers, and now in its fourth generation.

Langtermyn toets: Suzuki Jimny 1.5 GLX AllGrip (5-deur) handrat
Jimny 5-deur ’n wenner
In 2018 het die nuwe vierdie-generasie Jimny die mark met ’n storm getref. ’n Vakansie verlenging was nodig na ons Desember toets met die voertuig, siende dat ons konstant besig gehou is deur aanhangers. Ons mees onlangse Desember toets met die nuwe 5-deur Jimny het ’n gevoel van Déjà vu gebring; en met goeie rede.
Tested: 2023 Suzuki XL6 1.5 GLX A/T
Somewhere between enormous touch-screen distractions and badge-laden bakkies we lost the essence of motoring… but sometimes it bubbles back up to the surface in the most unexpected way.

In the middle of a crossover and SUV feeding frenzy, one plucky Japanese brand (with Indian spices) has been breaking sales records. And now they’ve got a stylish new model…

Dit is deesdae bykans ongehoord om ’n Suzuki artikel te lees, of ’n video te kyk, waar die Maruti vennootskap tussen Suzuki en Toyota nie genoem word nie. Ons het dit ook al etlike kere genoem, so laat ons dus nie nog ’n artikel gebruik om aandag hieraan te bestee nie.

Launch report: Suzuki Jimny 1.5 AllGrip (GL en GLX) 5-door
Suzuki ends off successful 2023 with the launch of the Jimny 5-door
In November 2018, Suzuki South Africa launched the brand-new and long-awaited 4th generation (code named: JB74) Jimny. While the 3rd generation Jimny was one of the key ingredients for Suzuki’s success, since re-entering the country in 2008, the model needed some modern updates. In fact, at that time, the third generation Jimny (JB23) had been in the country for a decade (two in other countries).
Bekendstelling: Suzuki Jimny 1.5 AllGrip (GL en GLX) 5-deur
Suzuki SA bekroon suksesvolle 2023 met Jimny 5-deur bekenstelling.
Tydens November 2018, het Suzuki Suid-Afrika die splinternuwe 4de generasie (kodenaam: JB74) Jimny bekend gestel. Terwyl die 3de generasie Jimny een van die kern redes vir Suzuki SA se sukses was sedert hul plaaslike herkoms in 2008, het die model ‘n paar moderne opdaterings benodig. In werklikheid was die derde generasie Jimny (JB23) teen daardie tyd al ’n dekade oud die land (twee in ander lande).
