Join us as we explore why Eeco Panel Van is an excellent choice for individuals and businesses in equal measure.

Design for Efficient Load Carrying

Eeco’s design prioritises its load-carrying capabilities. It features two individual sliding doors on the sides and a rear door that swings upward, providing convenient access to the cargo bay. The spacious interior dimensions, with a height of 1,070 mm, easily accommodate large and bulky items, including a full-sized South African pallet measuring 1,300 mm.

Certified Load-Carrying Capability

Understanding Eeco’s certified load-carrying capability of 615 kg is crucial, considering its ample dimensions. This capacity applies when the vehicle carries two passengers in a full tank, making it an ideal choice for transporting heavy loads.

New Suzuki Eeco Panel Van Offers Fuel-Efficient Performance

The Suzuki Eeco boasts the renowned 1.2-litre petrol engine, known for its fuel efficiency.

The K12N engine, featuring variable-valve timing and 16 valves distributed across its four cylinders, provides a desirable level of performance. With a 12-to-1 compression ratio for enhanced low-down power and a multipoint fuel injection system, the Eeco ensures an efficient and enjoyable driving experience.

Safety Features for Peace of Mind

Safety is a top priority in the Eeco, making it a reliable choice for travel. Standard safety features include anti-lock brakes (ABS), electronic brake-force distribution (EBD), and two airbags for both occupants.

A notable inclusion is the electronic stability control (ESP) that sets a new standard for safety in its class. Additional safety features such as a high-mounted stop lamp, anti-theft immobiliser, rear parking sensors, and side-impact steel beams in the front doors further enhance passenger protection.

Comfortable Travel Experience

Designed for comfort, the Eeco offers a pleasant journey for occupants. The vehicle features a standard air conditioner and a 12 V power outlet for convenient phone and GPS unit charging. A radio system with two speakers and an antenna form part of the in-cabin entertainment modifications.

Easy Maintenance for Hassle-Free Ownership

The Suzuki Eeco simplifies routine maintenance, solidifying its position as a total package. Such simplicity is evident in the K12N engine’s simple assembling allowing easy access to spark plugs, engine oil, and filters.

The driver’s seat conveniently folds up and forward, providing easy access to the engine compartment. Furthermore, the choice of a white exterior colour simplifies branding, while a basic steel wheel with a small centre cap reduces maintenance requirements.

The Suzuki Eeco is a versatile vehicle that excels in its design, fuel efficiency, safety features, comfort offerings, and maintenance advantages. With its impressive load-carrying capabilities, fuel-efficient performance, comprehensive safety features, comfortable interior, and ease of maintenance, the Eeco is a practical choice for individuals and businesses.

Suzuki Grand Vitara at CMH Suzuki Silver Lakes

Benchmarked on the brand’s growth in the country, Suzuki and CMH Suzuki Silver Lakes have successfully launched the new Grand Vitara and Eeco Panel Van. The Grand Vitara carries decades of Suzuki heritage and made its debut in 1998 as a short, stout 2+2 configured 4×4. The vehicle featured a boxy and unpretentious design, exuding a no-nonsense, go-anywhere presence. However, the latest iteration of the Grand Vitara has matured. Its modern and eye-catching appearance is reminiscent of its Baleno sibling.

On the other hand, the Eeco Panel Van is primarily targeted at last mile deliveries, the event industry, bands, florists, chemists, and other urban freight services. The Eeco boasts a large rear single opening and sliding doors on either side, allowing for easy loading and unloading in any position or space.

The rear sensors allow you to precisely measure distance while the camera shows you what’s around you.

The brand-new Grand Vitara is the ideal blend of design, comfort, and functionality. It has a well-known K-15 engine from Suzuki. However, the engine is not the sole feature of the Grand Vitara.

The brand-new Grand Vitara comes in two trim levels: the luxurious GLX and the entry-level GL.

Both the GL and GLX versions will let customers choose between a 5-speed manual or a full-speed automatic transmission. The grip or four-wheel drive model will only have a 6-speed automatic transmission.

In typical Suzuki fashion, the grand Vitara will come equipped with several high-end safety and luxury features, such as 17-inch alloy wheels and LED projector headlamps with LED daytime running lights, typically found in luxury vehicles.

The Grand Vitara provides a roomy, cosy cabin with plenty of space. You have keyless entry, a push-button start, and numerous safety features, including ABS with EBD, ESP, and six airbags.

Classy Hatchback Suzuki Baleno

By

The Suzuki Baleno is a classy hatchback with plenty of room and a brand-new platform. Learn more about the 8 aspects of this new model that we at CMH Suzuki Ballito find most appealing.

Classy Hatchback - Suzuki Baleno
Classy Hatchback

Styling

The Baleno’s liquid flow design, motivated by the ripples and motion of sound waves, creates a creates a beautifully sleek hatchback with the traditional appearance of a sedan.

Classy Hatchback with New Platform

This distinctive “skeleton” gives the car strength and flexibility while being incredibly lightweight—up to 200 kg lighter than some of its more immediate competitors. The platform also has an incredible impact on the vehicle’s fuel efficiency.

Classy Hatchback
Suzuki Baleno interior

Fuel Economy

The Baleno surpasses the already renowned fuel economy of Suzuki. Performance is greatly influenced by weight, and this car’s new lightweight frame and streamlined design make it the most fuel-efficient yet.

Spacious

The interior is incredibly spacious thanks to several clever “hacks,” like extending the wheelbase.

Performance

Because of the Baleno’s brilliant other changes and improvements, such as being lightweight and aerodynamic, the model’s 1.4L engine is much stronger and works much harder.

Features

The Baleno offers excellent value for the money with improved lighting, moving from HID (high-intensity discharge) headlamps to the first LED rear headlamps.

Concept Car

The Baleno was originally designed as the IK-2 and displayed at the Geneva Runway Show, similar to runway fashion. The concept car and on-street model are remarkably similar, which explains why the Baleno looks so contemporary.

Touchscreen Infotainment System

The 2019 Suzuki Baleno is a gorgeous hatch, and the GLX version now includes a factory-installed 7″ touchscreen infotainment system as standard equipment. It’s great because it has Android Auto and Apple Car Play and is easy to use.

Lightweight frame and streamlined design

Our description of the car does not do it justice. Visit CMH Suzuki Ballito for first-hand experience and, depending on your schedule, a first test drive.

CMH Suzuki Hillcrest – The Importance of a Test Drive

By

What is the importance of a test drive? A test drive is your opportunity to make sure all you have seen, read, and heard about the vehicle suits your needs perfectly and is, in fact, everything you hoped it would be.

CMH Suzuki Hillcrest has compiled a guideline of what to expect on a test drive.

Importance of a Test Drive
Importance of a Test Drive – Suzuki Hillcrest product range

Firstly

  • Sit in the driver’s seat and adjust it( and the mirrors) to the perfect position for you. The seating position is vital for safer and more comfortable driving.
  • Go through all the switches and controls. Understand what each one does and ensure you can reach them easily without taking your eyes off the road. Check forward, rearward, and side vision – identify where your blind spots are.

Importance of a Test Drive (The Drive)

  • Your drive route should include urban, rural, and highway terrains, preferably on familiar roads.
  • The purpose of the test drive is for you to get a good feel of the full functionality of the car and check for any defects.

Test Drive Tips

  • If you are in a manual car, check how hard it is to push in the clutch. Can you easily control the release?
  • Is the pull-off smooth? This applies equally to an automatic.
  • In a manual, do the gears slot seamlessly and accurately into place? Are you comfortable with the placement and action of the gear lever?
  • In an automatic, are the changes up (and down) smooth?
  • Do the brakes stop the car smoothly?
  • All of this should transpire on urban roads, in traffic, and with the kind of stop/start driving you would experience daily.
Suzuki models are ready for any terrain

Moving up to a rural road, you can check:

  • How does the car feel over bumpy surfaces often found on rural roads? Does it ‘iron’ out the bumps, or are you being shaken about like a leaf?
  • When you turn into a corner, does the steering respond accurately with the car going exactly where you have pointed it?
  • Is there a lot of body roll during cornering?
  • Does the seat keep you firmly in place?

The highway drive is an opportunity to check all of the listed items at a higher speed as well as look at:

  • How is the vehicle affected by side wind?
  • Does it track straight and true, or does it tend to ‘wander’ on the highway?
  • Are you easily able to maintain highway speeds?

Suzuki Vitara

This will give you an indication of how you and the vehicle you desire will happily ‘gel’ together for many kilometres of motoring.

ALL IN WITH THE ALL-NEW SUZUKI ERTIGA

By

I feel the all-new Suzuki Ertiga is the best choice for an all-round 7-seater in South Africa, and here’s why.

Apart from being one of the most affordable 7-seaters on the market, the 1.5-litre engine certainly does not lag in power. Compared to its predecessor, the new Suzuki Ertiga is 6kgs lighter.

All-New Suzuki Ertiga
All-New Suzuki Ertiga

The fuel economy of the Ertiga is most impressive. CMH Suzuki Pinetown achieved 6.2l/100km, which is very economical for a 7-seater. Because of these stats, it not only appeals to Uber drivers but to anyone looking for an affordable, compact 7-seater vehicle.

When CMH Suzuki Pinetown popped the hood, we found the new Dualjet 1.0 K10C engine, which proved successful in the Suzuki Celerio.

CMH Suzuki Hillcrest – Guide On How To Change A Flat Tyre

By

CMH Suzuki Hillcrest has compiled a step-by-step guide on how to change a flat tyre. Tyre punctures are the bane of every driver’s life. They demand immediate attention, regardless of where you are and what you had otherwise planned.

Whether or not a tyre is repairable depends entirely on the size and location of the puncture and the internal damage resulting from driving with a deflated tyre.

Step-By-Step How To Change A Flat Tyre:

Prioritise Your Safety

Flat tyres often happen in the most inconvenient locations. You will need to find a safe spot to pull over should this happen to you. If possible, have the flat tyre facing the verge side of the road instead of the traffic side. Once safely parked, put on your hazards, put your vehicle in neutral/park and pull up the handbrake.

Place Your Emergency Triangle in Plain Sight

In the event of a flat tyre, place your emergency triangle approximately 20 meters behind your vehicle on the road.

Place your triangle in plain sight

Find Objects to Support Your Brakes

Look for bricks, small rocks or logs and place them behind the other wheels to secure the vehicle and prevent it from rolling.

Retrieve Your Spare Wheel and Jack

Get your spare wheel, jack and wheel spanner from their respective compartments. They vary from car to car.

Look for a Suitable Spot to Place Your Jack

Look for the markings or notches on the metal frame under the vehicle near the tyre that needs changing. Place the jack and raise the wheel just enough to release vehicle weight.

Place your jack under

Loosen the Wheel Nuts and Remove the Damaged Wheel

Turn the wheel spanner anti-clockwise to remove the hubcap and partially loosen the wheel nuts. Proceed to jack the vehicle up high enough off the ground to remove the wheel, remove the wheel nuts, carefully remove the flat tyre and place it under the car in case your jack fails.

Loosen nuts & bolts

Proceed to Change Your Tyre

Align the spare wheel rim with the wheel bolts and slot them into place, and put back the wheel nuts tightening the nuts in a star pattern (don’t tighten the wheel nut next to the one you’ve just worked on, but rather the one just opposite it) to ensure even torque with your hands till they nice and snug.

Remove your flat wheel from under your vehicle to lower and remove your jack. Double-check that the wheel nuts are snug with the wheel spanner.

Place Your Jack and Damaged Wheel in Their Respective Compartments

Place the flat wheel, jack, wheel spanner and emergency triangle into the boot. Take the damaged wheel for repairs at your earliest convenience.

CMH Suzuki Hillcrest – Vehicle Air-Con Maintenance

How To Maintain Your Vehicle’s Air-Con with CMH Suzuki Hillcrest

CMH Suzuki Hillcrest is here to help you with your Suzuki’s Air-con Maintenance. Today’s vehicles practically come standard with air-conditioning, and on a hot summer day, it is one of life’s great pleasures to feel a welcome breeze of ice-cold air blowing through the vents.

Suzuki Hillcrest
Air-con controls

How an Air-Con works

An air-conditioner operates in a closed system with a refrigerant as the working fluid – this means that the incoming hot air never actually touches the refrigerant but is cooled indirectly by an evaporator/radiator in the airstream.

The engine’s auxiliary belt powers the compressor and compresses the refrigerant gas that now heats up above atmospheric temperatures. The hot, compressed refrigerant then passes through the condenser to filter the excess heat, and the gas condenses and passes through the fluid container. The liquid refrigerant then evaporates through the expansion valve, cooling the gas dramatically and passing through the evaporator in the climate-control system’s airstream, cooling the incoming air. The refrigerant continues back to the compressor to restart the whole process.

Air-con care
CMH Suzuki Hillcrest centre dash vents

What could go wrong

Your vehicle’s air-con should provide ice-cold relief within five minutes. It is best to evaluate the air blowing from the vents using the back of your hand. If the air is not cold by then, immediately switch off the air-con and get the system inspected.

A lot can go wrong with the air-con system, from gas leaks to failure of bearings and seals and blockages in the pipes or sensor failures. You can take some comfort with the fact that the last component to fail is likely to be the expensive compressor itself. A lack of lubrication is the main reason an air-con compressor fails when the gas leaks out, so does the oil, and, thus, lubrication qualities are lost, leading to failure.

Vehicle air-con care

Run your vehicle’s aircon for at least 30 minutes weekly to prevent expensive breakdowns. This action lubricates the system and prevents the bearings on the compressor from corroding at touching surfaces.

To avoid air-con odours, change the pollen filter regularly. Also, service the air-con once a year, now that the summer temperatures are setting in and it’s getting hotter.

Suzuki dash and air-con vents

Book your Suzuki for an air-con treatment and service at CMH Suzuki Hillcrest service department to prevent compressor replacement.

Proper air-con operation

The cabin air is usually hotter than the ambient temperature when a vehicle is stationary in the sun. First, open all windows and switch the fan speed to the maximum to expel the hot air. Then close the windows and allow the air-con to do its job. When the cabin air is cooler than the ambient temperature, the process can speed up by employing the recirculation function to recycle the cabin until the cockpit is at the desired temperature.
