Suzuki's Esztergom-made model, the Vitara, has received another prestigious award. For the second time in its history, it has won the Audience Award at the Hungarian Car of the Year 2025 competition.
Magyar Suzuki has donated a Suzuki Vitara to the Budapest University of Technology and Economics (BME) to support vehicle engineering training. The handover ceremony was held at the BME’s Centre of Competence, where the leaders of the university and the company emphasised the importance of industrial cooperation.
The manufacturing launch of the Vitara in 2015 marked a significant turning point in the history of Magyar Suzuki in many respects, as it became the most popular passenger car in Hungary. This was the first model in the company’s history whose prototype was developed with the involvement of Hungarian engineers. Today, the one-millionth Vitara has rolled off the production line — a marble blue, GLX and sunroof equipped version, which will soon reach its new owner in Germany.
At this year’s Companies for the Future Award ceremony of the Joint Venture Association (JVSZ), Magyar Suzuki Zrt. was recognised with the prestigious grand prize in the corporate category.
