Suzuki Motor Corporation (Japanese: ''''''', Hepburn: Suzuki Kabushiki gaisha) is a Japanese multinational mobility manufacturer headquartered in Hamamatsu, Shizuoka. It manufactures automobiles, motorcycles, all-terrain vehicles (ATVs), outboard marine engines, wheelchairs and a variety of other small internal combustion engines. In , Suzuki was the eleventh biggest automaker by production worldwide.[4] Suzuki has over 45,000 employees and has 35 production facilities in 23 countries, and 133 distributors in 192 countries. The worldwide sales volume of automobiles is the world's tenth largest,[5] while domestic sales volume is the third largest in the country.[6]

Suzuki's domestic motorcycle sales volume is the third largest in Japan.[7]

History

[

edit

]

In , Michio Suzuki (') founded the Suzuki Loom Works in the small seacoast village of Hamamatsu, Japan. Business boomed as Suzuki built weaving looms for Japan's giant silk industry.[8] In , Michio Suzuki invented a new type of weaving machine, which was exported overseas. The company's first 30 years focused on the development and production of these machines.[9]

Despite the success of his looms, Suzuki believed that his company would benefit from diversification and he began to look at other products. Based on consumer demand, he decided that building a small car would be the most practical new venture. The project began in , and within two years Suzuki had completed several compact prototype cars. These first Suzuki motor vehicles were powered by a then-innovative, liquid-cooled, four-stroke, four-cylinder engine. It had a cast aluminum crankcase and gearbox and generated 13 horsepower (9.7 kW) from a displacement of less than 800cc.[10]

With the onset of World War II, production plans for Suzuki's new vehicles were halted when the government declared civilian passenger cars a "non-essential commodity." At the conclusion of the war, Suzuki went back to producing looms. Loom production was given a boost when the U.S. government approved the shipping of cotton to Japan. Suzuki's fortunes brightened as orders began to increase from domestic textile manufacturers. But the joy was short-lived as the cotton market collapsed in .[11]

Faced with this colossal challenge, Suzuki returned to the production of motor vehicles. After the war, the Japanese had a great need for affordable, reliable personal transportation. A number of firms began offering "clip-on" gas-powered engines that could be attached to the typical bicycle. Suzuki's first two-wheeled vehicle was a bicycle fitted with a motor called, the "Power Free." Designed to be inexpensive and simple to build and maintain, the Power Free had a 36 cc, one horsepower, two-stroke engine.[12] The new double-sprocket gear system enabled the rider to either pedal with the engine assisting, pedal without engine assist, or simply disconnect the pedals and run on engine power alone.[13] The patent office of the new democratic government granted Suzuki a financial subsidy to continue research in motorcycle engineering.

Suzulight

By , Suzuki was producing 6,000 motorcycles per month and his company had officially changed its name to Suzuki Motor Co., Ltd. Following the success of his first motorcycles, Suzuki created an even more successful automobile: the Suzuki Suzulight. The Suzulight sold with front-wheel drive, four-wheel independent suspension and rack-and-pinion steering, which were not common on cars until three decades later.[citation needed]

Volkswagen held a 19.9% non-controlling shareholding in Suzuki between and . This situation did not last, as Suzuki accused Volkswagen of not sharing promised technology while Volkswagen objected to a deal where Suzuki purchased diesel engines from Fiat.[14] An international arbitration court ordered Volkswagen to sell the stake back to Suzuki.[14] Suzuki paid $3.8bn to complete the stock buy-back in September .[15]

Leadership

The company was founded by Michio Suzuki; its current Chairman is Osamu Suzuki,[16] the fourth adopted son-in-law in a row to run the company,[17] Osamu Suzuki, the 91 year old Chairman of Suzuki Motor Corporation, retired in June , handing over to his son Toshihiro.[18]

Timeline

[

edit

]

The Suzuki Loom Company started in as a manufacturer of looms for weaving silk and cotton. Michio Suzuki was intent on making better, more user-friendly looms and, for 30 years his focus was on the development of these machines. Michio's desire to diversify into automotive products was interrupted by World War II.[19] Before it began building four-stroke engines, Suzuki Motor Corp. was known for its two-stroke engines (for motorcycles and autos).[20] After the war, Suzuki made a two-stroke motorized bicycle, but eventually the company would be known for Hayabusa and GSX-R motorcycles, for the QuadRunner, and for dominating racetracks around the world. Even after producing its first car in the company didn't have an automobile division until .[21] Today Suzuki is among the world's largest automakers, and a major brand name in important markets, including Japan and India, but no longer sells cars in North America.[22]

Suzuki started manufacturing motorcycles in , the first models being motorized bicycles.[25] From to [47] the company manufactured motorcycles with two-stroke engines only, the biggest two-stroke model being the water-cooled triple-cylinder G2F5.

A large factor in Suzuki's success in two-stroke competition was the East German Grand Prix racer Ernst Degner, who defected to the West in ,[225] bringing with him expertise in two-stroke engines from the East German manufacturer MZ. The secrets Degner brought with him were three crucial technologies: the boost port,[226][227] the expansion chamber, and the rotary valve.[228] Walter Kaaden of MZ was the first engineer to combine these three crucial technologies.

Suzuki hired Degner, and he won the 50 cc class FIM road racing World Championship for them in the season. Suzuki became the first Japanese manufacturer to win a motocross world championship when Joel Robert won the 250 cc title. In the s, Suzuki established themselves in the motorcycle racing world with Barry Sheene Marco Lucchinelli Franco Uncini winning world championships in the premier 500cc class.
