New-generation Platform
The new-generation platform is a result of Suzuki’s quest to achieve a lighter, more rigid platform. The result was achieved by radically reviewing and undertaking fundamental redesign of the underbody’s structure. The overall vehicle design is also optimized, including parts mounted on the underbody. The new-generation platform uses a continuous structure in a smooth form. This innovative platform has improved crash resilience, achieves an approximately 10 per cent increase in body rigidity in case of the Baleno, compared to conventional vehicles in the same class.
The new-generation platform allows keeping vibration and noise in check, while maintaining ride comfort.
This means better driving performance and fuel efficiency, without sacrificing collision safety and NVH performance.
