Japanese car producer Suzuki started producing its new Vitara model at its Hungarian plant in Esztergom. The company’s Hungarian arm, Magyar Suzuki, invested €160m into the Esztergom plant two years ago in preparation of unrolling the Vitara line. “Suzuki considers Magyar Suzuki a significant strategic hub and will continuously expand its production,” said Suzuki’s chief executive, Osamu Suzuki.
Suzuki debuted in Hungary market in 1991. Since then, Magyar Suzuki has turned out eight models, including the Swift and the Splash. The company’s accumulated production reached 2.5 million units in 2014.
