Suzuki offers double scrappage deals

A new Suzuki Alto 1.0 litre manual version will now cost €8,690 ex-works for those who qualify for the Government scrappage scheme.

It is what Suzuki calls its ‘Scrap and Save €3,000' offer which is effectively doubling the Government €1,500 scrappage bounty.

Officially, the Suzuki €1,500 off the Alto, Splash, Swift and SX4 is only for those who qualify for the Government scrappage scheme. However, if anyone wants to buy a Suzuki with a new trade-in or even in a straight deal, a local dealer might be more open than usual to a good haggle.

Low cost motoring at its best

The introduction of the new Alto last year marked 30 years since Suzuki first launched the name in 1979. Originally the Alto was designed for the Kei class in Japan to provide motorists with low cost and enjoyable motoring, an ethos which has remained a core feature of the car’s DNA over three decades.

The Alto was first exported to Europe in 1981, and has recorded sales of 250,000 units during its 30 year presence. Mirroring the success which the car achieved in Japan, the Alto became the most popular A-segment purchase in a number of European countries.

The new seventh generation Alto celebrates its return as one of the greenest petrol family cars on sale today.

The five-door Alto, available with both manual and automatic transmission, comes complete with a three-cylinder 67bhp 1.0-litre engine returning a combined fuel consumption of 4.4 litres of fuel per 100kms or 64.2mpg and producing CO2 emissions as low as 103g/km. This qualifies the car for €104 annual road tax (Band A ), the cheapest classification available.

The seventh generation and stylish Alto prices start at €11,690 or €8,690 with the Government scrappage scheme. Standard equipment includes front electric windows, air conditioning, front and side airbags, ABS with EBD, and remote central locking, iPod connection.
