Suzuki Sales/Production : 2020-26

Suzuki has a unique positioning of product. They manufacture only small cars and commercial vehicles, which are notoriously difficult to make money on. Yet it is profitable. Its success is based on just two markets, India and Japan. That could leave them exposed if one faltered, but it hasn't. 

We will look at production and sales to see how the car division is doing globally. The data below is as detailed as it is provided by Suzuki.

Production: From 2020 to 2025, it has risen by 844,000 units. Japan is steady and the 'Rest' is down. India has grown by 904,000 to two thirds of the total production.

Sales: With India being a directly protected market and Japan indirectly, that gives Suzuki a solid platform to work off. Those two markets account for 78% of all vehicle sales. 

Of course, there has been much discussion about the impact of Chinese car makers aggressively expanding sales. Neither Japan nor India have been affected the same way. 

It will be interesting to see if that remains so but for now Suzuki cars are going along nicely. 3.3 million sales and 3.4 million vehicles produced in 2025 is impressive. There is consistent growth as well, a testament to how well the company is currently placed.
