Suzuki Dealerships Closeing

About 30 closures to new car sales, but they can still be licensed repair centres.
Iconic car brand will axe THIRTY dealerships across UK in huge cull as bosses promise ‘new era’ with launch of first EV

Nissan did exactly the same last year.

Pushed or jumped?

There seemed to be discontent at the end of last year when Suzuki reached their EU quota and stop supplying new cars for a while.

Perhaps some fell for the lure of the Chinese brands who were knocking doors

Some dealers were little more than a single desk with a Suzuki sign above it in a showroom that was primarily focussed on other brands

(Personal opinion)

I heard to was in Europe they need to build/sell 2 EV's for every ICE car, which gives the Chinese makers a huge advantage.
they can build two short range little city EV's easily fir every ICE car.
the big European manufacturers won't be able to do that which is going to start killing off the big manufacturers.
The solution is synthetic fuel, we already have the infrastructure to supply it, car m akers already have vehicles to run on it.
the o ly thing it needs is the plants to make it and that's much easier then designing/building new cars and rebuilding the energy infrastructure to run them.

You may well be right with jumped. It seems most if not all dealers in my local area supply other marques, which they can probably get in reasonable quantities, whereas Suzuki pulled several cars and didn’t replace them with anything.  Dealerships are there to sell cars, not take orders for something they can’t get.
