600 cars! Wow. That's either a master stroke of marketing or someone has seriously dropped the ball. Best of luck Suzuki.

So they told the Journalists the same as the dealers. 600 cars is approx 1 car per dealer per month. Lots of concern that lack of availability and long wait times will taint the brand so told to not encourage waiting lists.
So few available that some of the launch day test drives were in.......vitaras!
1.5 engine will have limited life, going to be quite quickly replaced.
No brochures, accessories guides or any handouts available

@AlexK said the 600 would be available in the first half of 2019, which correlates with the 1100 total available for the whole year as mentioned previously.
Isn't there a 3 year waiting list for the new model in Japan already?

It’s a joint Jimny/2019 Vitara launch, actually quite a few Jimnys here.
No plans to replace 1.5.

Would be odd to replace the 1.5 quickly if it's a newly developed engine? I can't see them wasting all that R&D.
1 car per dealer per month, gah! Think I'm 7th on my dealer's list, so possibly July unless others drop out having seen the prices.
