It also means that they are operating as healthy businesses that have the capital and manpower to keep our customers happy,” says Henno Havenga, manager for auto dealer sales at Suzuki Auto.
In October, the Swift retained its position as South Africa’s favourite Suzuki with 803 sales (522 through the dealer network).
The S-Presso followed in second place with 502 sales (362 units sold by dealers), while the Vitara Brezza, which joined the fold in
February this year, followed in third place with 487 new homes.
Importantly, Suzuki Jimny’s were delivered to 267 happy customers.
Suzuki’s total sales of 2 593 vehicles in October follow on a new all-time record of 3 134 vehicle sales achieved in September.
“For the year to date, we have averaged a monthly sales volume of 2 241 units, which is close to our total sales in our first year in South Africa in 2008 and this means that we have already passed our all-time annual sales record of 16 527 vehicles set in 2020, with two months to spare,” says Havenga.
