Suzuki’s previous Malaysian distributor was DRB-HICOM which also assembled the Swift hatchback at a plant in Pekan in Pahang state.
DRB-Hicom halted Suzuki sales in 2015 under a restructuring plan and the brand’s 29 dealers converted to Proton Edar outlets.
Naza Corporation Holdings CEO SM Nasimuddin said in a statement: “It brings us great honour to be able to work with a Japanese automotive giant that successfully captured the hearts of Malaysian consumers during its years in the market.”
The first Suzuki outlet will be a flagship 3S sales and service facility located in the Naza Automall in Petaling Jaya with the first model expected to be launched this month.
