Suzuki Super Carry Launch 2016

Budding entrepreneurs and cost-conscious businesses have a new ally in the all-new Suzuki Super Carry. Launched by Suzuki Philippines (SPH), the Super Carry is poised to bring the brand to even greater heights after posting an 11-percent growth year-on-year so far.

Catering to small and medium-sized businesses and enterprises, the all-new Super Carry builds upon Suzuki's expertise in the micro and small vehicle segment. It answers the requirements for a strong, high-performance utility vehicle that's cost-effective to own and maintain.

It packs a computer-controlled Euro-4 certified 793-cc 2-cylinder diesel engine with 32 horsepower at 3,500 rpm and 75 Nm of torque at 2,000 rpm enabling it to achieve up to 22 km/L. The eco-friendly and fuel-efficient Super Carry has emissions that contain 68 percent less particulates, 57 percent less nitrogen oxides, and 50 percent less carbon dioxide. Apart from being good for the environment, it can also carry a maximum payload of 735 kilograms on its 3.25 square-meter bed. A small turning radius of 4.3-meters enables it to navigate even the tightest of city streets.

"We, at Suzuki Philippines is able to launch a new product, which is Super Carry mounted as small-diesel engine. Due to the economy growth in the Philippines, someone will deliver the cargo to somewhere. Big truck can deliver the big cargo but for like a small subdivision, barangay, or more inland in the Philippines. So big truck cannot deliver the cargo because of the loader conditions. So this kind of condition, we at Suzuki bring this product so that we can deliver desire anywhere in the Philippines especially in a narrow place. "

"We believe that this particular model really helped us to increase our sales based on the latest data of DTI. It says that around 99% of the businesses registered are SMEs and we would like to target this market. So this is really a big market and this Super Carry would really fit in into the requirement of the entrepreneurs. This would be a big help to them and it's really very economical."

Though designed ultimately as a utility vehicle, the Super Carry doesn't discount comfort and convenience features that helps reduce fatigue. The driver's seat is adjustable up to 90 millimeters while an extended cushion on the passenger side allows for enough space for the driver to lie down in-between long drives. It also has a 1-DIN audio unit with a built-in speaker that allows AM/FM tuning, USB/SD card interface, and an auxiliary audio jack.

Having the engine underneath the passenger compartment, the Super Carry uses thick glass fiber heat shields for better insulation while the bulb/balloon-type weather strip lessens noise, vibration, and harshness.

Fitted with various theft prevention measures, it has a lock-on fuel tank cap, a secured spare tire mounting bracket, and a battery with lock provision.

In terms of safety, the outboard seats are equipped with 3-point Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) seatbelts while front disc brakes and rear drum brakes with a Load Sensing Proportioning Valve (LSPV) give a more stable brake feel in different load conditions. It's also made of high-tensile and galvanized chassis materials that not only limits intrusion inside the cabin during a crash, but also provides more resistance against rust.

Proving its mettle, Suzuki Philippines had a fleet of Super Carrys with various body styles available for testing right at the events venue. And through the specially-prepared course, the Super Carry proved its worth being nimble, spritely, and capable of working a sweat.

The country's cost-conscious business solution is now at Suzuki dealerships nationwide. The Suzuki Super Carry has four body types: Super Carry Truck (P 479,000), Super Carry Utility Van (P 565,000), Super Carry Cargo Van (P 529,000), and Super Carry Jeepney Body (P 550,000).
