Suzuki is really focusing on the small SUVs and going by the Suzuki Ignis, there’s a lot to be excited about. It slots between the Escudo and the Hustler and it’s positioned as the successor to the original Swift. These are cars that are suited for the Kenyan market because of the excellent clearance and off-road capability. The Suzuki Ignis entered the market in 2016 and it’s not made a major entry into this market as yet but this is one car we highly recommend. On the outside, the Ignis looks like a small version of the Escudo with a unique blend of smooth edges that are accentuated by the roof rails and sporty alloy rims. It has good ground clearance which makes it ideal for use in all road conditions. The inside is well finished with a touch of modern instruments such as…

It’s clear that Suzuki is capitalizing on the demand for small SUV cars that are economical but yet offer the desirable SUV ride characteristics.

It comes with a wide range of features that make it ideal for both daily commute and outdoor activities like camping and road trips. This endears it to the adventure-seekers and the younger clientele. The Huster is similar to the Suzuki Jimny but sleeker and more refined for on-road use to appeal to a wider demographic. It comes with standard 15-inch wheels, two-tone roof, rear wipers and washers, and circular headlights. It’s also available in a wide range of colours including orange,…
