Suzuki Every: Local vs. Japanese Variant Comparison

Pak Suzuki has launched the all-new Suzuki Every microvan, which has quickly become a hot topic in the local automotive market. The company offers two variants: the base model VX and the top-line VXR. While the locally assembled Every is now available, the imported Japanese version of Every was previously sold in Pakistan. In this article, we will compare the locally assembled Suzuki Every with the imported Japanese version to highlight the key differences.

Price and Availability
The Japanese Suzuki Every (2018-19 JOIN variant) is available in the Pakistani market for a price range of 28 to 30 lacs. However, it is important to note that most of these models are heavily refurbished after major accidents before being sold in Pakistan. On the other hand, the locally assembled Suzuki Every is brand new, with fewer features but a lower price point. Due to the lack of a proper test drive for the locally assembled version, this comparison is based on brochure details and market trends.

Safety Features

The Japanese Suzuki Every (JOIN variant) offers several advanced safety features that are missing from the local Suzuki Every VXR. These include Suzuki Safety Support, lane departure warning, hill hold assist, and rear parking sensors. These features provide a safer driving experience, especially in urban environments. Unfortunately, the local version lacks many of these high-end safety enhancements.

Interior and Comfort

The Japanese Every's interior is significantly more advanced than the locally assembled model. It features amenities like rear power windows, a 7” infotainment system, retractable side mirrors, and vinyl leather seats. Meanwhile, the locally assembled Every VXR has a much simpler interior with basic features like power steering, front power windows, and an MP3 player. The base VX variant doesn’t even come with an MP3 player or air conditioning.

Engine Performance

Both the local and Japanese Suzuki Every models use a 660cc engine. However, the Japanese version is equipped with a turbocharged R06A2 engine, delivering 48 HP and 60 Nm of torque, while the locally assembled model outputs 43 HP and 58 Nm of torque. The slight power difference gives the imported version a performance edge, especially on highways or with heavy loads.

Conclusion

In summary, both the locally assembled Suzuki Every and the imported Japanese Every have their own advantages and trade-offs. The Japanese version offers more advanced features, better safety, and higher performance but comes with the risk of being an accidental, refurbished model. On the other hand, the locally assembled Every provides peace of mind with a brand-new vehicle but lacks many of the features that the Japanese variant offers. Ultimately, the choice depends on whether you prioritize advanced features or a worry-free, locally assembled option.
