2011 Suzuki Landy |
Following the launch of the new Nissan Serena C26 since November 2010, it seems that others might think that Suzuki may not get the OEM version of the Serena that is the Landy, which was launched in 2007, the same year when the Nissan Serena C25 faced a minor change. However, Suzuki never forgot the memo that the new Landy will follow and it was based on the Nissan Serena C26.
Based on the Nissan Serena C26, the second-generation Suzuki Landy is now made even more economical and ecological, giving a status of a true eco car just like other Japanese eco-cars do thanks to the equipped MR20DD engine with idling stop system. The idling stop system allows the new Landy to automatically shut off the MR20DD engine while the car stops. This system provided a maximum fuel efficiency of 15.4km/L and it's approved for Japan's Eco-Car Genzei system, which gets a tax cut of 75% off.
My thoughts about the Landy:
Since the new Landy is now based on the Nissan Serena C26, every eco detail remains the same except the badging from Nissan to Suzuki because the Landy is the OEM of the Nissan Serena.
Both the new Landy and the new Serena toppled the Noah, Voxy, Stepwgn, and Stepwgn Spada in terms of fuel efficiency, but not enough against the Mazda Premacy.
