At the 2008 Paris Motor Show, Suzuki is
unveiling the all-new Alto — the fifth and smallest member of its
acclaimed line up of world strategic models. The new Alto combines
eye-catching style and easy urban mobility with great performance in
terms of fuel efficiency and CO2 emissions, thereby meeting
the lifestyle needs of today's motorists and the pressing global need
for environmental compatibility. Plus, it is one of the most
fun-to-drive city cars available — a great new example of Suzuki's "Way
of Life!" philosophy.
- Eco-friendly
- Low CO2 emission and
low fuel consumption
- Lightness achieved through
downsizing
- Stylish and sporty design
- Ample roominess and comfort as a
city commuter within compact dimensions
The new Alto is aimed mainly at urban
people who want a small car that offers style and enjoyment together
with great environmental credentials, and it reflects the ideals of the
second phase of Suzuki's world strategy. At the heart of the concept for
the new Alto is Suzuki's belief that people should be able to enjoy
economical, eco-friendly motoring without sacrificing style, comfort,
practicality, or performance. Compact dimensions (the new Alto is the
smallest of Suzuki's world strategic models) play a large part in
realising outstanding environmental credentials by keeping weight to a
minimum, but without detracting from user-friendliness.
