Suzuki Auto South Africa (Suzuki SA) in September broke its month-old all-time sales record set in August by over 600 units.

The company last month recorded 3 134 new-vehicle sales, notching up its best month ever and elevating it to a top-three position in overall vehicle sales in the South African market.

“We are ecstatic about the national sales results,” says Suzuki SA auto dealer sales manager Henno Havenga.

“Virtually every vehicle we were able to deliver to a dealer found a new owner, and dealers report many more customers queueing up for their Suzuki passenger vehicle, sports-utility vehicle or Super Carry commercial vehicle.”

This is the first time that Suzuki has broken through the 3 000-unit mark in one month.

To put this in perspective, Suzuki set a new record of 1 577 units in July 2019, finally breaking through the 2 000-unit barrier in October 2020, with 2 032 units.

In February 2021, Suzuki hit a new record of 2142 units and a month later, in March 2021, it sold 2 397 units.

In August this year, sales moved to 2 470 vehicles.
