Suzuki Splash
to make greener impact

18 Dec 2008 |
Suzuki is
introducing a new entry-level variant of the Splash GLS mini-MPV model
which was launched earlier this year, as motorists increasingly face
pressure to downsize and shift to models which offer low CO2
emissions and high fuel economy.
The Splash GLS
will feature a 68 bhp 1.0-litre three-cylinder petrol engine producing
120 g/km of CO2, which makes it the third model in the Suzuki
range to benefit from emissions of below 121 g/km, and annual road tax
of only £35 as of April, 2009.
With a combined
fuel consumption of 56.5 mpg, the Splash will provide young couples and
families with both an economical and stylish offering which delivers the
same fun-to-drive character, with agile, confidence-inspiring handling
thanks to the highly acclaimed Swift platform.
The model comes
complete with air conditioning, electric front windows and heated
adjustable door mirrors as standard. A three-spoke leather covered
steering wheel with audio controls and radio CD player with MP3
compatibility are just some of the key features included in the high
quality and spacious interior.
Safety remains a
core component of the Splash range with standard equipment including six
airbags, ABS with EBD, and ESP® across all levels of specification,
which is unique in its segment.
The new entry-level Splash GLS will go on sale in January 2009, priced
at £8,350 on the road.
