Pak Suzuki Motors has brought another great feature for its customers, Suzuki AGS, to make their lives easy. The world is moving towards the future even as we speak, and progress is more evident than ever before. Every industry is working towards things that bring ease and convenience to the people. Amid all of these industries, we also see Suzuki, one of the key players in the automobile industry globally. Automatic and Suzuki AGS:  Now we all know that cars have gone automatic, but not everyone loves this feature. There are still some who prefer to drive a manual as it gives the real driving experience. Now Suzuki is a brand that caters to everyone and doesn't leave anyone behind; introduced a new technology called 'AGS' (Auto Gear Shift) in Pakistan. AGS makes everything easy. It gives the driver an option to drive a manual car, which can turn into an automatic car with just a shift as per their convenience. Misconceptions About Suzuki AGS:  When this technology came into the market, there were many misconceptions regarding this technology. Some said it's not fuel-efficient, it's high maintenance, the shifting isn't smooth, and this is a tough technique to grasp. The company has been countering these misconceptions by informing the customers and potential buyers by telling them what it actually does and its benefits. What is AGS? First of all, it gives you the liberty of having a dual-mode option. Contrary to popular belief, it is tested and proved that AGS is indeed fuel-efficient by a good margin compared to other options. The shifting will not seem smooth if it is not done correctly in the way it is supposed to be. Lastly, since it holds an automatic engine, AGS does not require much attention towards maintenance, making it easy to maintain.  Currently, this feature is available with Cultus, Wagon R, and Alto variants, but its audience has more plans. Imagine not being tense while stuck in traffic, imagine not worrying about the fuel consumption, imagine not being worked up in keeping your car maintained at all times, and imagine having the option to shift from manual to auto and vice versa. It seems unreal, but this is the reality of how Suzuki wants to bring about ease and convenience for its customers. That is why the brand is known for its philosophy of 'Way of Life'. Big Offer by Suzuki:  To top it all, Pak Suzuki gives various offers on WagonR AGS and Alto AGS to attract potential buyers. Customers can save a significant amount of up to Rs. 172,000+ via 1-year free periodic maintenance and free registration, they also have special markup rates to make it more and more convenient for interested parties.   For sign up, fill the form at: bit.ly/2Q9LBll  

Pak Suzuki has decided to discontinue Suzuki Swift in Pakistan from next year. In a statement, the company said it will stop the production of this 1300cc hatchback in August 2021. The company said it would produce 2,432 units of Swift from August 2020 to August 2021. Production Detail of Suzuki Swift:  In a chart, Pak Suzuki gave detail of the production of this car for next year, i.e., the company will produce 668 DLX NAV variants and 2423 AT NAV variants during next year. Statement For Suzuki Swift Business Partners:  The company further told its business partners that the total production quantity would remain the same. However, the monthly quantity may differ, as per customers’ demand. “The last order from suppliers for imported material must be done according to the stock available at supplier’s premises,," the company said. It also said the orders in pipeline and stock at Pak Suzuki Motors Company Ltd (PSMC) should also be considered. Order For Local Materials:  In discussing the last order of local material, Pak Suzuki advised the suppliers to strictly follow the firm orders of PSMC. "The suppliers must also consider the stock at PSMC before the placement of the last order," Suzuki said.    The company further said that PSMC has already paid unamortized tooling cost of all “In Supply Parts” of Swift to all suppliers. Hence, the company will not entertain such claims. Suzuki requested its partners to carry out effective material and management for the smooth production of remaining Swift cars. History of Suzuki Swift in Pakistan:  Pak Suzuki launched the 1300cc Swift hatchback in 2010. The car was available in international markets since 2004; however, Pak Suzuki was six years late to introduce it to Pakistan.  Although the car has the same M13A engine found in the Liana, it’s still said to have an improved head and doesn’t create issues that Liana was prone to. Initial years for Swift were tough; it became the victim of Pak Suzuki’s own medication. i.e. people preferred an obsolete Cultus with cheaper maintenance over a modern-day Swift. Eventually, Pak Suzuki had to discontinue the Cultus VXL trim to boost Swift's sales, and it worked. In 2011-12 Swift reached its highest sales ever, selling more than 7000 units in a year, but sales started to decline.  A recent report revealed that Suzuki sold 1,440 units of Swift in Quarter2 of 2019, while company only sold 280 Swift cars in the same period of 2020. Furthermore, the Japanese imported cars have also dented the sales of Swift.  Recommended For You: Pak Suzuki Reports Record Loss Of Rs1.52billion

Today we are doing an expert review of Suzuki Inazuma 250 bike. We will also give a detailed comparison of this bike with its competitors, i.e., Honda CB-250F and Benelli TNT25. Price:  The launch price of this bike in Pakistan was Rs6 lacs, and it went up to Rs9 lacs. However, the bike has been discontinued in the country.   Suzuki Inazuma 250 Engine:  The bike has a 248cc engine with double cylinders, which means it has two bores and two pistons. The smoothness of this bike has increased due to two cylinders. Furthermore, you can increase the sound of these cylinders by installing aftermarket exhaust. Moving forward, the engine of this bike has a single cam rod/overhead rod. Comparison with Honda CB-250 F and Benelli TNT25 If you talk about the engine, Benelli TNT 25 and Suzuki Inazuma 250 have liquid cool engines, which means they have proper radiator and needs coolant in it. This factor increased the life of the engine to a very large extend. Meanwhile, Honda’s bike is air and oil cool, henceforth, Suzuki and Benelli have more reliable engines as compared to Honda. Coming to vital features of these bikes, Suzuki and Benelli have sensors in their side stands, increasing their safety, while this feature is not in Honda  As mentioned earlier, Suzuki has two-cylinder heads, while the other two have one-cylinder units. Furthermore, all three bikes have a naked street style, while Benelli has best looks among three as it has LED front and taillights and relatively modern design. If you come to the weight, Suzuki’s bike is heaviest one with 183-kilogram wet weight, while Benelli has 159kg. The wet weight is the weight of a bike after a full tank of fuel and engine oil in it. Suzuki Inazuma Fuel Average:  The Suzuki Inazuma has 13 liters fuel tank capacity, while Benelli has 17 liters storage. As both bikes are EFI, henceforth, they give an average of 25-32 kilometers per liter. If you talk about Suzuki bike specifically, you will get an average of 28-30 kilometers with Hi-Octane. Brake System:  Suzuki Inazuma has non-ABS disc brakes in front and rear wheels. The brake in front wheel is double piston caliper, while it has a single-piston caliper at the back wheel. Handle Bars:  The shape of this bike’s handlebar is quite chic because it is mounted on two forks. These forks do look good, but they make handlebar bit heavy while maneuvering. Features:  The bike has engine kill/self-start switch, while on the left-hand side of the handlebar has dipper, high/low beam, indicators, and horn switches. Instrument Cluster:  If we come to its instrument cluster, it has a broader shape with all engine-related lights along with catalytic converter light in it. The bike’s RPM meter is analog, while the speedometer is digital. The missing feature of this bike is that it does not show engine temperature gauge on the meter. Front Lights:  The company has given two small parking halogen and one large halogen bulbs as front lights. The large bulb has a high and low beam option. Gearbox:  The gearbox of this bike is very soft and smooth. The gear changing is perfect. The first gear of this 6-speed transmission is down, while five others are applied upwardly. Furthermore, the pick of the bike is very good at all gears. Ride Posture of Suzuki Inazuma:   The riding posture of this bike is straight and comfortable because its handlebar is a bit higher as compared to its competitors. Meanwhile, the seat cushion is very soft and comfortable and suitable for long rides. Negatives:  The most prominent negative aspect of this bike is that its side mirrors start to get foggy due to vibration at high RPMs. Suspension:  The suspension of this bike comes in telescopic front forks, while Benelli bike has inverted-telescopic forks. The inverted ones are stronger and durable because they absorb the shocks more efficiently. However, the suspension of this bike is excellent and does not give many jerks over potholes.
