Title: PR: ASMC SEES 62 PERCENT INCREASE IN JAN 04
Post by: ebewley on February 09, 2004, 11:40:38 AM
BREA, Calif. (February 3, 2004) - Powered by an ambitious five-year growth plan and rapidly expanding sales of its new Forenza premium compact and Verona midsize sedans, American Suzuki Motor Corporation (ASMC) sold 5,099 vehicles in January 2004, representing a 62 percent increase in overall sales compared to January 2003 and giving the expanding automaker its best January since 1988.

"We made a good start in January," explained Koichi Suzuki, president of American Suzuki's Automotive Operations. "The Verona and Forenza are bringing new customers to Suzuki. They are the first two of nine new vehicles Suzuki will launch as part of its plan to triple U.S. sales to 200,000 vehicles by 2007."

Appearing in U.S. showrooms late last year, the Verona and Forenza combine Italian styling with the power, performance, passenger room and standard features usually associated with considerably higher-priced models. The two new vehicles will be followed by the launch of seven additional models by 2007 including the Suzuki Reno, a five-door crossover vehicle slated to go on sale later this year.

Believe me, if I could buy a brand new Suzuki (Grand  Vitara) I would...but I can't afford it, and plus, my Sidekick is still going strong, even after almost 13 years.

It'll be 13 years old in March.

But that's great news!! I REALLY hope the one of the new vehicles is a really nice, tough and sporty SUV able to tackle anything.  :)
