Suzuki, a world leader in subcompact cars, is finding more fans in the Philippine market by selling 162% more cars in the first three months of 2015 compared to the same period last year.

The company’s impressive year-to-year growth is reflective of the robust automotive market which collectively grew by 122% for the first quarter of 2015 according to The Chamber of Automotive Manufacturers of the Philippines, Inc. (CAMPI). Suzuki Philippines’ sales numbers show the Filipinos growing love affair with the company’s cute, durable, and fuel-efficient cars.

The three marquee models that are driving the impressive growth are the Suzuki Ertiga, Suzuki Swift 1.2, and Suzuki Alto 800.

The Suzuki Ertiga, a seven-seater compact MPV, leads the charts which is an impressive performance for a recently launched model. With three variants available in the Philippines, the Ertiga is the perfect car for the family and is also the car of choice for those who need vehicles that serve multiple purposes, from ferrying a larger group of people in comfort to transporting large loads. The Ertiga’s folding rear seats can easily accommodate large objects that are impossible to fit into a sedan. The Ertiga is one of Suzuki Philippines’ cost-efficient vehicles, and the go-to model for those who want more value and performance for their money.

The Suzuki Swift 1.2 also posted solid sales numbers in the first quarter of 2015. An ideal subcompact car for first-time car owners, with a sporty and stylish design combined with impressive fuel efficiency ideal for city driving, the Swift 1.2 is the car of choice for young urban professionals.

The Alto 800, on the other hand, boasts of a 248% growth from the 2014 Q1 figures. Since introducing this model to the local market in 2007, the Alto 800 remains an icon for small, fuel-efficient compact cars that pack impressive automotive power. This do-it-all dynamo delivers terrific fuel efficiency and performance, and is perfect for both personal use or as part of a larger fleet. Plus, it’s a great way to get around cosmopolitan areas—compact and cost-efficient.

“The 2015 sales report gives us many reasons to celebrate,” says Shuzo Hoshikura, Suzuki’s General Manager for Automobile. “Not just our significant improvement from last year’s figures, but also the fact that more and more Filipino motorists are recognizing the innovative technology, intelligent design, and passion we put into each car we offer in the market.”

Aside from celebrating its excellent sales performance in the first quarter of 2015, Suzuki Philippines is now looking forward to achieving more and expanding their sales reach. “Our goal is to continue bringing in vehicles which would appeal to the local market due to its fuel-efficiency, value for money and fun driving dynamics. Expect more from the Suzuki brand in the coming months and years,” shared Hoshikura.

Suzuki celebrates 40 years of partnership with one of the country’s biggest motorcycle distributors – Wheeltek Motor Sales Corporation. As Wheeltek turned the Trinoma Activity Center as the hub of their 4 decades of excellence in the Philippine motoring scene on September 27 to 28, Suzuki came in with its aesthetically impressive display highlighting the brand’s latest Fuel-injection technology and big bikes. The display carries Wheeltek’s push models of Suzuki’s small and big bikes – the Raider J 115 Fi, Shooter 15 Fi, Smash 115 and Skydrive as well as the Suzuki GSR 750 and V-Strom 650.

Suzuki also provided a lot of surprises to the booth visitors by giving out freebies to those who like or share their fan page. Doing this automatically qualified the fans to participate in Smash 115 Raffle Promo!

Fans also got a chance to take their photos with the lovely Suzuki Fi ladies and FHM’s 100 Sexiest’s Alex Moreno.

And as if those were not enough, they got a Suzuki Fi Cap upon sharing these photos on their Facebook walls!

Wheeltek’s exhibit area showcased their 40 years of history marking each decade with a milestone. Back in 1974, Dr. Reynaldo Odulio and Mrs. Rosario Teresita Odulio established their business of distributing motorcycles under the name of Peer Marketing in their home garage with only three motorcycle units. These motorcycles are all Suzuki ascertaining the fact that Suzuki is the first brand of choice that Wheeltek had during its foundation.

At the Supplier’s Night during the first day of their exhibit, Suzuki President Mr. Hiroshi Suzuki, Managing Director Ms. Catalina Calderon, General Manager for Sales and Marketing of Motorcycle Division Mr. Eiji Kobayashi and General Manager for Admin and Finance Mr. Norminio Mojica, handed over the Japanese giant’s token of appreciation to the Odulio Family. The memento is a round wheel-like token made of an ultra-clear glass topped with a translucent text “40th Anniversary”. The token symbolizes Suzuki and Wheeltek’s long partnership that have surpassed the test of time. The round shape signifies a Wheel which is the part that moves the motorcycle to where it is going and just like how Suzuki and Wheeltek’s partnership brought the two to where they are today.
