Suzuki has a reputation for reliability that has been hard earned. In the 2018 study conducted by Which? they were found to be the second most reliable brand reviewed. The brand was just one of three who earned a full five star rating.

The history of Suzuki

Suzuki started, in the early part of the 20th century, as a company manufacturing weaving looms. In the mid-1930s the company’s owner decided it was time to look at diversification and by 1939 the company had produced several car prototypes. Unfortunately, the onset of World War II called a halt to production of their new venture.

After the war finished, Suzuki returned to making looms, though this came to an end with the collapse of the cotton market in 1951. Suzuki returned to research into vehicle manufacture and started to produce motorbikes. By 1954, 6,000 were being made in their plant every month.

In 1955, Suzuki released their first car, the Suzulight, a mini (or kei) car that they continued to produce until 1969.

Today, the Japanese car manufacturer is best known for their smaller cars, ideal for use in the city and as compact family cars.
