Suzuki Motor of America, Inc. is now the sole U.S. distributor of Suzuki motorcycles, ATVs, marine outboard engines and auto parts and service. The new company arrives following the restructuring of American Suzuki Motor Corp., which resulted in the discontinuance of Suzuki car sales in the U.S. and the reduction in 98 Suzuki motorcycle dealerships.
