Suzuki Car Insurance Groups
We insure plenty of Suzuki models, so we’ve pulled together a list of the insurance groups the most popular models fall into.

Just get in touch and we’ll give you a quote for your specific model.
Suzuki Swift Insurance Groups
Are you a Suzuki fan? If so, you might know the Suzuki Swift has been a popular small car that has been available in various forms since 2005. Swift models are available with diesel and petrol engines and newer models also include hybrid models.
While some of the older Swifts are in the lower insurance groups, models like the sporty Swift Hatchback sit in higher groups. This is because of the various trim levels available, which include premium features like sat-nav and telescopic steering wheel adjustment. Just remember, the more bells and whistles you have might mean the more you pay for your Suzuki car insurance.

Suzuki Alto Insurance Groups
Meet the Suzuki Alto, a robustly built urban car that was designed to keep costs low. And that translates into low insurance costs too. A simple, no-frills vehicle, it lacks modern features such as electric windows, but this all works in your favour when it comes to pricing your insurance. If there's any damage to your doors, not having electric windows lowers the price of repairs because there's no rewiring to be done. Models in the Alto range typically have small 1.0-litre to 1.1-litre engines, keeping them low in the insurance groups. These cars are no longer in production but there are still plenty available second hand.

About Suzuki
Early Beginnings
Michio Suzuki, the founder of Suzuki built his first prototype automobile in 1937. He was already a successful businessman and manufacturer, having established the Suzuki Loom Works in 1920, supplying the silk industry. His interest in automobile manufacture was born out of a need to diversify his company. During two years of development Suzuki produced a number of pioneering prototypes of compact cars, which were powered by innovative liquid-cooled, four-stroke, four-cylinder engines. During World War II, Suzuki's car production ceased and afterwards, he returned to loom manufacture. It wasn't until the 50s that the company returned to the automotive industry, launching its first motorcycle, the Power Free in 1952, and its first car, the Suzuki Sunlight in 1955. Over the next three decades, Suzuki grew in popularity with consumers throughout the world. In 1989, it sold 10 million vehicles in that year alone. In 1999, it released the famously powerful Hayabusa (or GSX1300R), which could reach speeds of 188-194mph, crowning it the ultimate sports bike.
Present Day
Today, Suzuki is a huge multinational manufacturer with 35 production facilities in 23 different countries. It has forged a global reputation for producing compact, sporty fuel-efficient cars, like the Suzuki Swift. And it’s well-noted for its motorcycle technologies too, such as the GSX250R.
