Suzuki Alto Debuts in the Philippines
LEADING compact car manufacturer Suzuki goes back to the basics as it brings to the Philippines one of the most popular compact cars that is recognized worldwide for its stability, fuel efficiency and affordability—the Suzuki Alto.
Initially introduced in Japan in 1979, the Suzuki Alto, which will be officially launched today at the Le Pavilion in Pasay City, has reached the 10-million mark for units sold worldwide. It has been tried and tested in the tight streets of European countries such as Italy, Germany, the Netherlands and England, and currently is the number-one-selling car in India, with an average of 20,000 units sold every month.
The Suzuki Alto measures an overall height of 1,455 mm, overall width of 1,495 mm, an overall length of 3,495 mm, wheel base of 2,360 mm, ground clearance of 160 mm and weighs 760 kg (curb weight). The Suzuki Alto is, likewise, packed with the most basic yet most important car features—an 800cc, three-cylinder, 12-valve engine with a maximum output of 47 hp at 6,200 rpm and a maximum torque of 62 Nm at 3,000 rpm. It also employs the standard Suzuki side-impact beams on all doors which gives the passengers more protection in case of collisions, a third brake light, front and rear three-point emergency locking retractable (ELR) seatbelts and rear-door childproof locks.
Fuel injected and computer controlled for maximum fuel efficiency, the Suzuki Alto runs at an impressive 17 km per liter consumption (combined city and highway driving) with a five-speed manual transmission.
The Suzuki Alto is the most affordable car to date. It has two variants—the Standard with an SRP of P359,000 and the De Luxe with an SRP of P398,000 and both models are bundled with a three-year or 100,000-km (whichever comes first) factory warranty. The Suzuki Alto comes in Superior White, Virgin Blue Metallic, Silky Silver Metallic, Bright Red (De Luxe) and Sparkling Olive Green Metallic (De Luxe).

Tiny car NANO has big potential
The tiny Nano cars made by India's Tata Motors are starting to hit the road in that country after a land dispute forced the relocation of the car's
manufacturing plant and delayed its launch. Analysts say the Nano could rock the international auto industry and put millions of new Indian drivers on the road. While Tata is producing only about 100 units a day, Tata director Jamshed J. Irani said it hopes to ramp up to about 1,000 vehicles a day next year. Tata has also started building low-cost homes, which the media have labeled Nano homes. Continue reading the article here
