Teyseer Motors, the official dealer for the Suzuki range of vehicles in Qatar, has launched the new-age hatchback version of the Suzuki Baleno at a glittering ceremony held at the Suzuki showroom on Old Airport Road.
Adel al-Mannai, president of Teyseer Motors; Medhat Greiss, general manager of Teyseer Motors; Pawan Agarwal, general manager - International Marketing Division, Maruti Suzuki India Limited and senior officials of Teyseer Motors attended the launch ceremony alongside individual and fleet customers and other guests.
“The Suzuki Baleno has over the years grown to be recognised as one of the most popular family sedans in its class. The all-new 2017 Baleno is new in every aspect as it has undergone a contemporary facelift and now sports a hatchback look, a fine engine, an immensely spacious cabin, a massive boot and state-of-the-art technology and accessories. It is a value-driven proposition aimed at trendy-but-sensible members of Generation Y and is easily one of the most compelling new age compact hatchbacks on the market,” said al-Mannai.
Powered by a 1.4-litre 4-cylinder engine, with a 4-speed automatic transmission, the new Baleno hatchback comes in two versions - GL and GLX. It features a 6.2-inch infotainment system in addition to cruise control, automatic A/C, ‘guide me’ light, rear park distance control and USB and Aux ports, among a host of other utility-driven features.
“The all-new 2017 Baleno shatters all conventions. It’s big on space, big on equipment and equally big on value. This roomy five-door, five-seater hatchback packs in a lot of kit and practicality that you’d normally expect from one class above, and also offers a joyful driving experience. It sports a European chic design that is smart and mature and offers zesty handling and good fuel economy. Without any shade of doubt, it is the most rational and practical choice in its segment,” said Greiss.
Other notable features of this new hatchback sensation are chrome accent on front grille and tailgate, tilt-adjustable steering wheel, electrical door mirrors, remote keyless entry, Bluetooth connectivity, airbags, tyre pressure monitoring system and electric power steering system.
Al-Mannai said that the Baleno is sold with a package that includes 20,000km free service and free registration. In addition, the price has been brought down to encourage new buyers to try it. He also stressed the vehicle has been tested in the country and its reliability and durability have been confirmed. He also affirmed that the AC of the car is powerful and suitable to the hot conditions of the country with added advantage of the great fuel economy of the vehicle.
Greiss said Teyseer Motors has an adequate number of service centres well distributed in the country and there are plans for expansion in the near future.
Teyseer Motors, the exclusive distributor for the Suzuki range of cars since 1968, has always maintained a well-equipped after sales and service network at strategic locations in Qatar. The Suzuki Service Centre network as well as the Quik Fit Centre are the two main service offerings of Teyseer’s after sales network.
