Some cars just live on, even when the world around them changes.

Suzuki, a small player in the global car market, is celebrating 100 years of business on October 2009.

But Suzuki has successfully brought trustworthy transportation to the masses, influencing millions of lives, with everything from the Suzuki-Maruti 800 for lower-income people right up to the cheap Suzuki Samurai for budget offroaders.
