Committed to offering Filipinos
the latest automotive technology, Suzuki Philippines unveils top-class upgrades
for the sedan and hatchback to ensure optimum driving experience
Manila—Pioneer compact car distributor Suzuki Philippines (SPH) closes the first half of the year with the back-to-back launch of the much-anticipated all-new Dzire and Swift.
The
grand launch, held at Marriott Hotel, Pasay City and attended by over 500
media, bankers and dealers nationwide, introduces not only the latest upgrades on
two of Suzuki’s popular vehicles but also the revolutionary Japanese technology
behind these newest innovations.
“We
are grateful for the strong support we continue to receive from the Filipino
market, particularly during the first months of the year. As testament of our
commitment to delivering only the best-quality products and services, we at
Suzuki Philippines are more than happy to finally share with everyone the
all-new Dzire and all-new Swift equipped with the latest of our innovative
technology. I am optimistic that these latest product offerings will drive SPH
to new milestones, all while staying true to the goal of sharing with more
Filipinos the Suzuki Way of Life,” shared SPH Vice President and General
Manager for Automotive Shuzo Hoshikura.
All-New Dzire: The sedan to
look out for
Designed for wise and practical millennials and young professionals, the
all-new Dzire is a comfortable sedan in a compact body with advanced technology
and features to enhance the driving experience. It packs the Auto
Gear Shift (AGS) technology, which combines the fuel efficiency of a manual
transmission and convenience of an automatic transmission.
A
fusion of practicality and style, the new Dzire is lower
and wider than the previous model. The compact body makes the sedan light and
easy to take on any city adventure yet sports a sleek and confident style. The
larger boot capacity ensures there is enough space for luggage for a business
trip or quick getaway.
All-New Swift: Award-winning
hatchback
The all-new Swift boasts a daring transformation while retaining
old features that Filipinos loved—strong shoulders, blacked-out A-pillars for
wrap-around windows, dynamic side-window treatment and distinctive vertically
arranged lamps. These are complemented by a black interior with a white pearl
accent and a dimple pattern to create a fresher look.
To
emphasize the sporty and confident look, the well-loved hatchback is now
shorter, lower and wider with a muscular structure. The compact dimensions
guarantee easy handling but do not compromise comfort. The vehicle’s luggage
space has been expanded by 54L for more storage capacity than the previous
model.
To
deliver superior fuel efficiency, the new Swift adopts continuously variable
transmission (CVT), which makes driving smoother and gear change shock-free for
better acceleration at low speeds and improved fuel economy at high speeds.
Top-tier performance and safety
Chief Engineer Masao Kobori of Suzuki Motor Corporation shares his inspiration in creating the all-new Dzire and Swift.
Both the upgraded Dzire and Swift boast Suzuki’s new-generation
platform, HEARTECT. The continuous frame resulting from the comprehensive
overhaul of the vehicles’ underbody structure and component layout increases
underbody stiffness. The highly rigid yet light body helps improve vehicle
performance.
The
new smooth curving form also effectively disperses impact energy throughout the
car body in case of a collision.
Both
vehicles’ structure is specially designed to feature Total Effective Control
Technology to absorb impact and mitigate injury in case of a pedestrian
accident. They are equipped with dual airbags for maximum passenger protection.
“We
introduced a new- generation platform and engineered a completely new chassis,
body structure and powertrain with a new body structure. We set out to create a
car that would let people experience a new level of excitement like never
before! The instant they see it, the instant they get inside and the instant
they step on the accelerator,” said Masao Kobori, Chief Engineer of the all-new
Suzuki Dzire and Swift.
Models and pricing
The all-new Dzire comes in two variants: the GL MT and GL+AGS. The
GL MT is available in Premium Arctic White, Metallic Silky Silver and Premium
Midnight Black colors and lists at P638,000 SRP. The GL+AGS variant comes in
Premium Oxford Blue, Premium Sherwood Brown, Premium Arctic White, Premium
Midnight Black and Metallic Magma Gray colors and has an SRP of P698,000.
The
well-loved Swift has three variants: the GL MT priced at P755,000, GL CVT at
P799,000 and the GLX CVT at P899,000.The
six color options of the hatchback—Speedy Blue Metallic, Fervent Red, Pure
