Suzuki Belgium

Business background

Suzuki Motor Corporation has been very successful in producing reliable, high quality cars. Since it expanded from Japan into the western world in 1963, its stability and sense of tradition can be found throughout the company.

To accompany its long-lasting international success as hyper-modern car manufacturer, the Belgium subsidiary had Wunderkraut remanufacture the Suzuki website to create a modern online experience in keeping with their identity.

Audiences from both Belgium and Luxembourg are served with the multilingual and user-friendly portal to Suzuki’s versatile carfleet.

Technical Objective

Drupal’s strong Content Management System greatly improve the site's content management facilities. The usability of Drupal’s editor interface proved of great benefit to Suzuki Belgium’s content editors.

The Suzuki web project allowed Wunderkraut to foster Drupal’s Imagemaker module (maintained by Wunderkraut’s Tech Lead Kristof DeJaeger).

Imagemaker makes it possible to add markers or descriptions on any of the widely used image fields. The extensive collection of data on Suzuki’s car models can be maintained in both French and Dutch languages, incorporated into one multilingual website.

Business Results

Suzuki Belgium can manage their extensive information files on all cars through Drupal content management system.

Pricing, model packages, technical details and discount deals can all be maintained and effectively pushed to the online product portfolio and online Car Configurator.

Both actual and potential Suzuki drivers can now quickly find their way to a Suzuki dealer nearby for more information, service or a test drive.

For the 90th edition of the Autosalon Brussels 2012, Wunderkraut constructed an iPad interface which acts as a compact reference system for Suzuki’s sales representatives. With just a few swipes, visitors get on-the-spot answers and information.
