Savings of up to $4200 on selected Vitara and S-Cross SUVs have been extended until the end of February or until stocks last.
Suzuki Australia has extended its MY23 plate clearance until the end of February 2025, with five- and 10-per cent discounts off the retail prices of Vitara and S-Cross SUVs.
The offers were originally planned to end on January 31 but Australian buyers will now have until February 28 – or until stocks last.
The discounts only apply to Suzuki Vitara and S-Cross made in 2023 as the car maker looks to sell off older vehicles with new models – including a facelifted Vitara with a hybrid powertrain – due in Australia this year.
A mild hybrid version of the S-Cross is also expected in the second half of 2025, while there could be a battery-electric Vitara – called the eVitara – in local showrooms in 2026, although this is yet to be officially confirmed by Suzuki Australia.

The Suzuki Fronx – a budget-priced city SUV – is scheduled for the second quarter of 2025 (April-June) to sit below the Vitara in terms of size and price.
Meanwhile, significant discounts continue on the MY23 (model year 2023) Vitara and MY23 S-Cross.
The good news is neither the Vitara or S-Cross have had any significant updates since MY23 versions were introduced, meaning the discounted models are (for now) up-to-date in terms of styling, equipment and technology.
It brings the starting price of a MY23 Vitara SUV with manual transmission – a rival to the Mazda CX-3, Toyota Corolla-Cross and Chery Tiggo 4 Pro – down by five percent to $27,541 drive-away instead of its previous $28,990 ask.

Standard equipment includes a 1.6-litre four-cylinder petrol engine, keyless entry, 7.0-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility and seven airbags.
With an automatic transmission, the MY23 Vitara is $29,441 under the offer, a five percent reduction saving buyers $1549.
Even bigger savings have been applied to the Vitara Turbo models – each equipped with a more powerful turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine – with prices slashed by 10 per cent for discounts of more than $4000.
This sees the Vitara Turbo priced from $32,391 drive-away, while the Vitara Turbo AllGrip – which brings all-wheel drive – has had $4149 lopped off its price to be $37,341 drive-away.

The Suzuki S-Cross – competing with the Mitsubishi ASX, MG ZS and Hyundai Kona – has also had 10 per cent slashed off its prices across all MY23 models.
The entry-level front-wheel drive MY23 S-Cross is now $33,291 drive-away compared to its original $36,990 listing, with the S-Cross Plus now $35,541 – a saving of $3949.
Both are powered by the same 1.4-litre turbocharged petrol engine – the only engine offered across the S-Cross range – and include a rear parking camera, adaptive cruise control with speed limiter as well as a large (430L) boot.
The all-wheel drive MY23 S-Cross AllGrip is now priced from $35,901, with the biggest dollar saving on the S-Cross AllGrip prestige – again, $4249 off its original price.
At $38,241 drive-away, the S-Cross AllGrip Prestige brings a larger infotainment screen, panoramic sunroof, 360-degree camera, part-leather seat upholstery and 17-inch alloy wheels.
Suzuki’s most popular model remains the Jimny small off-road SUV – which saw an almost 20 per cent year-on-year rise in January 2025 as previous orders – which caused length waiting lists – are fulfilled.
While Suzuki Australia says there is plenty of stock, arrivals of the three-door Jimny have been paused given new safety laws which come into effect in March 2025 across Australia.
The new regulations will not impact the five-door Suzuki Jimny XL.
