Alto An Alternative Trend
Alto An Alternative Trend
Although this seventh-generation model is the first sold in South Africa, it has been a pioneer since its launch in Japan in 1979, and its international debut two years later.
The concept for the first-generation Alto was to provide a definitive response to contemporary needs, representing great value by virtue of superior fuel economy in the wake of the oil crisis of the time.
While it was initially designed as a mini commercial vehicle, it was outstandingly versatile.
Three decades, seven generations and numerous top-selling A-segment records later - and despite the tough current economic climate - the Alto's core attributes remain.
It also further entrenches the revered small car heritage that has made Suzuki a top mini vehicle seller in Japan and the world over.
In its latest guise, the Alto offers a compelling subcompact design perfectly suited to modern motoring needs and lifestyles.
Its attributes embrace low fuel consumption and running costs, a high degree of environmental efficiency, exceptional value and affordability, as well as Suzuki's renowned traits for fun and practical motoring.
Everyday ease-of-use is a fundamental attraction in the Alto, with the contemporary design ethic matching today's active lifestyle.
