PAGE A4,, WHJM'Y FREEPRESS, Durhiam Moves, SEPTEMBER 21, 1988 / 3i 41 i"!i~î Il h *i I n Suzuk introduces 2 new. vehicles for '89 Having bëen vincicated of allegations that their Samurai off-road vehicle was unsafe, Suzuki bas corne up with an improved Samurai model and two new vehicles for 1989. Consumer groups in the U.S. had clainied that the Samurai tipped over when turned sharply, and an appeal was Iaunched to get theNational Hlighway Traffic Safety Administration te launch a safety investigation. The NHTSA refused the peti- tion and supported Suzuki's dlaim that the vehicle is safe. The Samnurai off-road, 4x4 vehicle features good fuel econ- oniy (33.8 mpg combined city/highway rating). Typical buyers of the Samurai are between 18 and 34. The engine is a 1.3-litre, four cylinder unit that produces 64 horsepower at 5500 rpmn, and is noted for its low end torque. The vehicle features a fully synchromesh, five-speed trans- mission along with a two-speed* transfer case. Suzuki offers a full range of accessories for the Samurai including: winches, trailer bit- ches, roof carrier, sprot nirrors, sport steering wheel, brush guards, ski racks, bikini vinyl tops and additional instruiment- ation. Two new vehicles for 1989 are the Sidekick, a four-wbeel drive utility, vehicle, and an economy car, the Swift. At an unveiling of both cars last week, Gavin Donaldson, general manager of Suzuki, said the Sidekick isa more upscale version of the popular Samurai. "The fôur-wheel drivenmarket is just a very hot market right now," he said. The Swift features a special aluminum alloy, four-cylinder, LIGHTER AND MORE POWERFUL THAN THE COMPETITION, NOW THAT'S PEJRFOJRMANCE I I 7huaUt TooIs available at * I PICKERING' i iTOOL SHACK 401 I154 BaylyStreet, Pickering 839-2364 L0 L lij I ~Mon. - Fr. 8 - 6 Pm, Saturday 9 - 5 Pm ~ALS NORTH BROKIjIOfl SALES LTOI LAROEST FALL SALE ln Dur 22 orlllr METBO EAST TUADE CEUnIE t8ug BRICKno. s., PicKEiIN V SHOW SEPT. 22-24 ~l~Ieeeeeee URee ECREeeeeeee SE E NRESeeeeeeeee.e.eeeee.
