Suzuki Palette & Palette SW

With the caliber of the kei car and known as the rival of the Daihatsu Tanto, the Suzuki Palette is truly a small wonder, combining the degrees of the family van and the compact car to give this Japanese compact some amusement and excitement average Japanese families want to acclaim.



For the outer view of the Palette, it resembles the design quality that is somewhat similar to other Suzuki cars such as the Swift and the Cervo, but the body sizing is similar to its rival, the Daihatsu Tanto. With the cuteness of a small car and the family-oriented habit of a family van combined, the Palette stands out among the rest of people carriers sold in the market thanks to its pricing.



The spacing plays a big role for the Palette and it is great for accommodating owners everywhere. With this key role, the seating arrangement cannot be difficult and it’s perfect as a luggage carrier or something for a siesta among people.



The Palette's performance is handy capable for the driver who has a lot of options regarding this mini-kei-van; it was powered by the 660cc DOHC VVT engine capable of releasing 54PS at the fuel economy of 18.8-21.5km/L. Available transmissions are 4-speed automatic transmission and the world's first fully upgraded Continuously Variable Transmission. The Palette also comes with the optional four-wheel drive for all round amusement.

Palette SW



New to the Palette line-up is the exceptionally combative Palette SW variant. Like how it looks to be, the Palette SW is the main opponent of Daihatsu's Tanto Custom variant. Not only that, the new Palette SW is also used as Nissan's newest small van called the Roox. What to determine on the SW is the same Palette body size and this time, the front view for the SW is similar to the Stingray variant of the best-selling Wagon R. With the regular Palette having beige interior, the Palette SW is rigged with a dark interior to add coolness to this super-cool mini-kei-van. And available only for the SW variant is the turbo engine that delivers 64PS at the fuel economy of 19-20km/L. Best of all, both the Palette and the SW also comes with the optional CD Player with the back-view monitor for added parking safety and it comes with SRS air bags, ABS, Electronic Brake force Distribution, and TECT (Total Effective Control Technology).

HOW WAS IT? IS IT GOOD?

The regular Palette variant is cute enough for families to take advantage of it, while the Palette SW is an extreme between young drivers and those who are looking for thrills on the road. No matter which Palette will you drive, this small van provides the respect made from Suzuki.
