SUZUKI Ertiga, which was launched last year 2014, has been awarded the “Most Dependable Car” by JD power Asia Pacific magazine.



The award was achieved as consumers praised the vehicle due to what it could offer the drivers in the kingdom. It achieved success through out since its launch till date.

 

The JD Power magazine relies on experts who drive the vehicles to inspect all its features and manufacturers and test drivers see the accuracy in the process.



Experts test drive the vehicle and examine it features and specifications including fuel consumption, general vehicle’s performance, the easiness of reading its odometer, the vehicle’s stability especially on curved roads, in addition to the brake pads performance, as well as the outer shape and feeling of the cars, in comparison to other same categories within competing brands and finally the magazine relies on the “Ertiga” owners to evaluate it.      



The Suzuki Ertiga has been awarded with India’s most dependable car Award for the MUV/MPV segment by JD Power 2015. It is practically comfortable. It has a petrol engine at 1.4-litre.



The car is responsive interactive with its driver. It could play a vital role in the sales of the Suzuki Saudia for its different aspects and features and in particular it witnessed excellent sales in the Saudi market due to its build quality, aerodynamic design, fuel efficiency, safety features and overall performance.



Maher Al Nabawi, Deputy General Manager of Suzuki Saudia, said: “The Ertiga looks more of a small car than an APV. The “Maruti” version is quality good for most parts especially that the Maruti plant has a tendency to stress on the latter.



The Ertiga handles well especially if you consider this is a seven-seater vehicle. The vehicle can literally run rings around the competition as far as dynamics go.

Inside, there is plenty of space for the passengers, to ensure comfort.



We are proud that this vehicle achieved this award and I stress that Suzuki Ertiga has also achieved the highest sales volume in the Saudi market.”



“The Suzuki Ertiga was not the only vehicle which we introduced within the Saudi market but also we presented the “Ciaz” and the “S Cross”.



And we are expecting the same success of the Ertiga for the mentioned vehicle especially that the Ertiga is a best fit for families of a medium income and the Ciaz and the “S Cross” are a best fit for young’s and rental companies and companies that require vehicles for their sales representatives, in addition to the Saudi and foreign families which are in search for an attracting vehicle at a convenient price,” Al Nabawi noted.   



 Overall, the Ertiga is impressive, for its own features and capacities. It drives much like a car and not like those body-roll-special APVs.



The car-like dynamics will definitely attract the hatchback and saloon buyer.  And that’s one of its biggest unique selling points. — SG
