Suzuki Australia will be celebrating the depth and heritage of its entire brand offering at the 2012 Australian International Motor Show with products from Suzuki Cars, Motorcycles and Marine on display.

The headlining act of the Suzuki stand will be a one-off Suzuki Swift - from its chief engineer Naoyuki Takeuchi - taking centre stage and giving an insight into the future design and engineering for Suzuki’s number one vehicle globally.

Joining the one-off Swift on stand will be Suzuki’s current range of best-selling automobiles including the full SX4 and Grand Vitara ranges as well as some of its popular motorcycles and a 7m bowrider boat outfitted with a 175hp Suzuki engine. Suzuki will be the only exhibitor at the 2012 Australian International Motor Show with offerings from its full contingent of transport options on display.

What prompted the idea of a shared stand for 2012 was the success of the advertising campaign celebrating the engineering partnership between its legendary Hayabusa motorcycle and its new luxury sports sedan, the Kizashi – with both on display.

“It’s great what Suzuki Australia will be doing at this year’s Motor Show.  We find some visitors to the Show are extremely interested in what particular exhibitors offer in all of their fields, not just in automotive,” said Russ Tyrie, Event Director.

“Visitors to the Motor Show will be able to see the full range of Suzuki vehicles including an exciting one-off concept Swift, but also examples of what else the company offers in the motorcycle and marine markets.” 

Alongside the Hayabusa, Suzuki Motorcycles will also have on display the championship-winning GSX-R1000 sportsbike from Josh Waters who recently claimed the 2012 Australian Superbike Championship as well as its versatile V-Strom 650 adventure tourer.

The 2012 Australian International Motor Show will be held at the Sydney Convention & Exhibition Centre, Darling Harbour and will open daily at 10am from October 19 to 28.

Almost 95 per cent of all new cars sold in Australia this year will be represented at the 2012 Australian International Motor Show, with 27 brands confirmed to exhibit their current, future and in some instances, concept range of vehicles.
