Pepsi Chooses the Suzuki Carry

Pepsi-Cola Products Philippines, Inc. (PCPPI) chose the Suzuki Carry to deliver their products to consumers nationwide. The beverage giant specifically chose the light commercial truck for its size, maneuverability, and features.

The turnover done last week represents the first batch of Carry units delivered by Suzuki Auto UN.

It was attended by the representatives of Suzuki Auto UN, Willard Keng, Dealer Principal EVP, Roberto Bautista, the dealership’s General Manager, and its Fleet Manager Edgar Santiago. To represent Suzuki Philippines Incorporated (SPH) was Marko Rivera, Sales Specialist. On the other hand, PCPPI’s representatives included PCPPI Senior General Manager, Luzon 1, Alvin M. Valencia, joined by Senior Manager for Sales Information and Systems, Ryan P. Mariano and National Fleet Senior Manager John Albert Ayro.

The event was held in PCPPI’s head office in Tunasan, Muntinlupa, where 21 out of 105 units of the All-New Carry were turned over to be utilized as their delivery vehicle and shall be distributed to different PCPPI sales office nationwide.

Backed by more than 40 years of Suzuki compact truck experience in the harshest environments, the Carry is the suitable delivery partner for PCPPI as the point-to-point delivery means having to face different terrains and weather conditions.

Built to be tough, the Carry uses galvanized steel plates for the entire bed of the compact truck. This is on top of the sealers and undercoating used for its underbody and stainless steel for the exhaust system. Its engine air intake is placed at a high position under the cargo bed which allows it to overcome flooded roads even with water levels as high as 30 mm.

The Suzuki Carry with a payload capacity of 940 kilograms is powered by a high-power and high-fuel efficient 1.5-liter 4-cylinder gasoline engine making 96 horsepower and 135 Nm of torque. It is available in two body styles: the Carry Cab & Chassis at P 499,000 and the Carry Truck at P 509,000. Customizations are welcome based on customer’s requirement.
