Which Suzuki Is Best for Students?

Student life is all about making smart and strategic choices. You want enough money left over for coffee, textbooks and weekend plans, so why spend more than you need to on getting around? When it comes to affordable, economical motoring, Suzuki has three strong contenders: the S-Presso, Celerio and Swift.


So, which one deserves the keys?

The Suzuki S-Presso is the natural choice for students who want to keep their purchase price down. Starting from R178 900, it packs a 1.0L engine producing 49kW and 89Nm, plus an estimated fuel consumption of 4.4L/100km. Its compact dimensions make it easy to navigate the busy Johannesburg South streets and find a parking spot when campus is packed. It is small, but certainly not short on character.

On the other hand, if saving at the fuel station is your main priority, the Suzuki Celerio deserves a closer look. Starting from R188 900, its 1.0L engine produces 49kW and 89Nm as well, while the claimed fuel consumption starts at only 4.2L/100km. This fuel-conscious hatchback has a spacious 295L boot, giving you more than enough space for groceries, bags and everything else student life throws your way.

Then there is the Suzuki Swift, for students who want their first car to have a little more attitude. Starting from R228 900, the Swift's 1.2L engine produces 60kW and 112Nm, with its fuel consumption from 4.4L/100km. Add its sporty styling, modern cabin and useful technology, and it is easy to see why the Swift remains such a popular choice.
