Alto is a real miser

SUZUKI'S new short car is an absolute fuel miser.

The Alto, which was a highlight of the modern Brisbane Greenfest, arrives in Queensland showrooms next week costing from $12,490 to $16,490 plus on-route costs, and boasts official economy figures of 4.6 litres/100km.

However, Queensland Suzuki importers Suzuki Auto Performers felt so confident about the fuel-economy credentials of the car, they tested it in verified conditions at the state launch this week.

Sending motoring journalists to try out a car's fuel economy is like a red rag to a bull.

In the wake of one newspaper motoring newspaperwoman being caught doing more than 200km/h in a Ferrari in Western Australia, you can surmise how some motoring writers might treat test cars.

I'm not suggesting the 10 journalists attending on the Brisbane Alto send drove like lunatics, nor that they did a Hans Tholstrup and drove with fictitious eggs under the accelerator.
