SUZUKI ENHANCES LINE-UP

Suzuki announced additions to their model lineup with the new ‘cool white’ colour option in their key portables range, together with updated DF175A and DF150A models featuring Suzuki’s ‘Lean Burn’ technology. Customers continue to benefit from Suzuki’s core technologies, with a focus on delivering superior fuel efficiency and unrivalled reliability.

In response to the increase in demand for white outboards, Suzuki has introduced a ‘cool white’ colour option on some of its portable range, namely the DF6A, DF9.9B, DF15A and DF20A. These are available. With these additions, Suzuki has white outboards available from 6hp to 350hp, which covers wide variety of boats and customer preferences.

Fuel economy is an important issue for all boaters. The DF175A and DF150A both benefit from Suzuki’s unrivalled Lean Burn Control System, which is designed to save fuel both at low speed and up into the cruising range. This is done by predicting fuel requirements according to operating conditions, then delivering an optimum mixture of fuel and air to the engine, which in the case of these new models results in a 14% improvement in fuel economy for the DF175A over the current DF175 and a 7% improvement for the DF150A over the current DF150. This proves once again, that with a Suzuki powering your boat, you can go further, faster, for less.

In addition to all of this, there is a selection of optional extras available such as troll mode system, Suzuki Easy Start System and Suzuki’s market-leading Keyless Start System. This technology uses a coded key-fob to deliver a simple, stress-free operation while reducing the risk of a lost key. The system makes for an excellent theft deterrent, as the outboard will not start without the proper access code.

These features mean that they compare extremely favourably against the models they replace. Indeed, the DF150A delivers over 3% more torque than the current DF150 and the DF175A produces 2.7% more torque than the DF175. Both new models can achieve a superior level of overall performance. Plus, to enhance the smooth and positive nature of the mechanical controls, customers can choose from one of Suzuki’s ergonomically designed binnacle or side-mount control boxes.

Both outboards feature new 3D decals and are available in Pearl Nebular Black or Cool White, allowing customers to pick the colour that best suits their boat.

Yasuharu Osawa, Managing Officer, Executive General Manager, Marine Operations, Suzuki Motor Corporation, said: “This is an important horsepower sector for us and the introduction of these new models will strengthen our lineup.

The new DF150A and DF175A are packed with the very latest Suzuki’s technologies which will deliver the ultimate boating experience. Also, by adding the new white DF6A, DF9.9B, DF15A and DF20A we are offering our customers a much wider choice.”
