8th Generation JDM Suzuki Alto ENE Charge Kei car completes its 9 Years of successful life span and still selling more then locally assembled Suzuki Alto VXR AGS in Pakistan. K-Cars, also known as Kei Cars, are a type of small car that is somewhat of a trend in Japan. These mini vehicles are designed to be compact, efficient, and affordable. The Japanese government introduced the Kei Car category in the 1940s to address post-war economic challenges and promote affordable mobility. Kei car is the smallest category of Japanese, expressway-legal motor vehicles. 'Kei' is diminutive for kei-jidōsha, (kanji: 軽自動車), "light automobile" or "compact automobile" Kei cars have been very successful in Japan since the 1960s, consisting of over one-third of domestic new-car sales in fiscal year 2016, after dropping from a record 40 percent market share in 2013. To lower the market share of kei cars, Japan increased taxes on the category by 50% in 2014.In 2018, seven of the 10 top-selling models were nonetheless kei cars, including the top four, all boxy passenger vans: the Honda N-Box, Suzuki Spacia, Nissan Dayz, and Daihatsu Tanto. For exports, the vehicles are generally too small and specialized to be profitable.Notable exceptions exist, for instance the Suzuki Alto and Daihatsu Cuore, which have been exported consistently from around 1980. The export version of the Suzuki Jimny has become very popular, both in and outside of Japan. Kei cars are both popular with the elderly, but also with youths and younger families because of their affordability and ease of use. Nearly all kei cars have been designed and manufactured in Japan, but a version of the German-made Smart Fortwo was briefly imported and officially classified as a kei car. In addition, the British Caterham 7 160 and the Polish Polski Fiat 126p (Maluch)also received such classification. Suzuki Alto ENE charge What is the ene charge in a Suzuki Alto? This engine is paired with a continuously variable transmission (CVT), which helps to maximize fuel economy. The Alto ENE Charge gets an impressive 35 kilometers per liter (83 mpg) in the city and 27 kilometers per liter (64 mpg) on the highway. How does ene charge work? Suzuki's eNe-CHARGE system uses a high-efficiency, high-output alternator to generate electricity using the deceleration energy that is available every time the driver releases the accelerator pedal and every time the driver presses the brake pedal. The Alto is currently in its 8th generation which debuted in Japan back on the 22nd of December 2014, and has today competed 9 years of its lifespan. It was designed to have very low fuel consumption, this was achieved using “Suzuki Green Technology” for the body and the engine, and resulted in the car to be 60 kg lighter than the previous model. The 8th gen Alto comes equipped with a 658 cc R06A engine, in both naturally aspirated & turbocharged.The three-cylinder petrol engine produces up to 63hp with the turbo, and 51hp for regular units. The engines are paired to either a 5-speed manual or a CVT transmission. In Japan four-wheel drive system is also available in both trim levels (Turbo RS & NA). The fuel economy in JC08 test cycle is rated at 37 km/l (2WD) and 33.2 km/l (4WD). In addition to the Turbo RS, a performance version called Alto Works is also available in Japan. It was reported by the Japanese media earlier this year that the 8th gen Alto which has now completed its 9 years lifespan will be replaced by the 9th model in December 2021. In Pakistan, the 8th gen Alto was introduced few year back and instantly jumped to the top of sales chart and since then remains the bestselling vehicle in the country. The car received several price revisions since its launch but the rising prices haven’t created any troubles for Alto as far as the sales are concerned. However when compared to the Japanese version, the local Alto misses out on a lot of features & equipment including push button engine start/ stop, side mirrors , seat height adjustment, heated seats In terms of safety, some features are also missing such as EBD with Brake Assist, and Electronic Stability Program (ESP). Furthermore the JDM Alto is equipped with features such as eco idle, ene-charge regenerative braking system, reversing sensors and collision warning etc all of which remain absent in the local assembled Alto 660cc. Even if the new generation Alto arrives in Japanese market, our chances of getting the newer version will remain slim as the car was introduced in our country just fee year and is currently doing tremendously well in terms of sales. So from the looks of it, the 8th gen Suzuki Alto will be here for quite a few years to come.
