CFAO Mobility Nigeria has launched the 2026 Suzuki Across hybrid SUV in Nigeria, targeting motorists seeking lower fuel costs and more efficient vehicles as high petrol prices reshape consumer spending.
The company said the new Suzuki Across combines hybrid technology, all-wheel-drive capability and durability tailored to Nigerian road conditions, positioning it as a practical option for drivers facing rising transportation expenses.
The launch reflects a broader shift in Nigeria’s automobile market, where distributors are increasingly introducing fuel-efficient and hybrid models following the removal of petrol subsidies and sustained inflation that have pushed fuel prices sharply higher over the past two years.
Powered by Suzuki’s SHVS Mild Hybrid system, the vehicle is designed to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions without the need for external charging. The SUV also comes with Suzuki’s ALLGRIP all-wheel-drive technology aimed at improving handling across urban roads and rough terrains.
“The Suzuki Across is not simply another SUV introduction; it reflects a more intelligent and practical approach to mobility for Nigerians adapting to today’s economic realities,” Kunle Jaiyesimi, deputy managing director of CFAO Mobility Nigeria, said during the launch.
