Eagerly awaiting Australian consumers will get their hands on the all-new Jimny and new Vitara Series II as of Australia Day 2019.

Suzuki Australia has today confirmed both new models will be available at dealerships across the country for test drives and purchase from January 26, 2019.

An increasing cult-following and enthusiasm surrounding the Jimny sees the current interest sitting well over 200 pre-orders before full specifications and pricing are confirmed for the Australian market.

In Australia, the Vitara has been awarded Drive's Best City SUV three years running with the Vitara RT-S in 2015, followed by the Vitara Turbo in 2016 & 2017.

Suzuki Australia General Manager – Automobile, Mr. Michael Pachota said the introduction of the all-new Jimny and new Vitara on Australia Day 2019 was most suitable for the Suzuki brand in Australia.

"Both the Jimny and Vitara have a strong heritage and following in Australia, which has been none more evident than the demand for pre-orders since the all-new Jimny was confirmed for the Australian market."

Further adding, "The Vitara that Australian's know and love only gets better with considerable improvements to safety and design. The new Vitara will certainly continue to maintain its outstanding value for money for consumers." said Pachota.
