Suzuki Cuts Prices for Aussie Alto and Swift

With manufacturers across the world trying to leave behind a very troubled 2009 and look ahead to a better 2010, the first month of the new year will bring with it a wave of price cuts in the automotive industry, as carmakers will try and bring consumer interest back on track after the holidays.

Among the first to do so is Japanese carmaker Suzuki, which announced a (minor) price cut of AU$700 for the entry level Alto GL with manual gearbox (new price AU$11,790, as well as a major AU$2,000 cut off the price of the top of the line Alto GLX (new price $12,490).

"Suzuki has always represented great value for money and the new pricing for Swift and Alto only adds to that well-earned reputation,” Suzuki Australia General Manager Tony Devers said. "The Alto GL is a fantastic buy, offering the safety of six airbags and ABS as standard, outstanding fuel economy of only 4.8 litres per 100 kilometres and Suzuki’s legendary reliability.

The Swift range starts at AU$16,290 for the entry level manual, a drop of AU$500 over 2009 prices, while the automatic version is now priced at AU$17,990.

With these pricing cuts there has never been a better time to test drive a new Suzuki and find out why it has become one of the fastest growing brands in the country,” Devers added.
