Suzuki Sales Continue Record-Setting Pace in Febuary 2007

BREA, Calif.--American Suzuki Motor Corporation (ASMC) today announced sales of 8,585 units in February – the best February sales in company history. The new monthly sales record follows a record-setting 2006, when ASMC enjoyed automobile sales of more than 100,000 vehicles for the first time in its 22-year history. Year-to-date sales in 2007 also remain ahead of last year’s total.

ASMC’s record February was led by sales of the new XL7 crossover SUV with 2,402 units sold and a 68 percent increase in sales of the Aerio line, which now includes the media-acclaimed all-new SX4.

“We’re excited to see Suzuki’s dynamic automobile sales momentum continue through the first quarter of 2007,” said Koichi Suzuki, president of American Suzuki Automotive Operations. “In 2006, Suzuki achieved a significant milestone in the U.S. by surpassing 100,000 units in annual sales, and we expect the growing popularity of the XL7 and the SX4 to help us continue to sell Suzuki automobiles at a record pace.”

American Suzuki’s expanded product line includes the all-new XL7 midsize crossover SUV, the all-wheel-drive SX4 compact sport crossover, the media-acclaimed Grand Vitara, the popular Forenza sedan and Forenza Wagon, the five-door Reno and the Aerio sedan.

In addition to the strong vehicle lineup, Suzuki vehicles feature America’s #1 Warranty with its industry-leading 100,000-mile/seven-year, zero deductible, fully-transferable limited powertrain warranty.
