But I don't get it...solio is a family car and it is very spacious inside...it should be in demand here? I drove it in Japan during holiday, it is very very practical... furthermore, it now has hybrid version... should qualify for more government subsidy? Any boss who is in the Parallel Important business enlighten me on this ? where to rent a Suzuki in japan? I wanted to rent a jimny to try it out before I decide whether to get one here.

If I am suzuki japan, time to change agent. You do realize Suzuki is under Inchsacape? Which means they are with Toyota also. If they cannot market the brand properly who can?

Its just too expensive and with an unusable back seat, its appeal will be limited. And how many of us drive through muddy and rocky terrain everyday? The Jimmy drives poorly on normal roads due to its crude and tough ladder frame chassis and true off road suspension. And the lack of decent top speed a big issue on the NSHW Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too much to chew?...then let others eat lah. Suzuki uses many Toyota parts, it is natural for Inchscape to sell alongside Toyota Suzuki is really a car company that specializes in small cars. Thats their mission really. It is not selling well in SG is becos of our crazy tax systems, it is not logical to spend so much money for a tiny car. Suzuki is selling damn well in JDM and India, Indonesia. You really need to check out their K cars in Japan. They are very well designed and many models showed what the Japs can do to max space in a tiny K car platform. And despite their tiny sizes, specs are very impressive Too bad these K cars are not designed to be export models. Prob they can't meet the most stringent safety standards required by the western markets. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Under his helm, next time all suzuki cars import in sure will have integrated audio unit & big CC engines (No 3000cc, no talk) from GM.

Cheefarn 5th Gear February 20, 2020 Share February 20, 2020 When you will guys stop mess up other people's thread just to take some cheap shots at totally irrelevant stuff? Not everyone appreciates your childish behaviors Your idiotic and childish counters just shows how uninformed you guys are. As it stands now, even 马云 himself may not be successful in running any automotive dealership in SG, at least not what most would define the term successful from an automotive sale point of view. Our gov illogical and counter productive tax and env policies will make sure only the selected few range of models have the potential to sell decently in SG. Our policies does not encourage diversity in the automotive world and all brands and models are expected to follow their preset policies checklist so that they can be 'mainstream'. Any attempts to sell something different will be ridiculed at and given the thumbs down from people like you guys. You guys are already trained to follow the mainstream and you will buy only products that are the best sellers. Follow the herd mentality. So if anything, it is the gov policies that require changing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brass 6th Gear November 27, 2020 Share November 27, 2020 2 hours ago, mikk123 said: i drove it when i was on holiday in japan. Felt it was capable car for japan road, so it is sufficient road for sg lah.... lots of space and practical for family usage. If people can bring in Honda Nbox and Suzuki every, then this one is ok. I often saw those suzuki every running 80km on our expressway. The Solio somewhat looks like the Serena.. Actually, since we pay the same COE no matter how small or big the car is, isnt it good if we get something like a 5 seater Serena if we do not need to seat 7 at a lower price? Price is 'upsized' but price differential wouldnt be as much in SG than as in Japan. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
