Apparently, it was a bit of a success, since the automaker is not only reviving this campaign, but is spreading the promotion across its full model range (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/model\/kizashi\">Kizashi<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/model\/grand+vitara\">Grand Vitara<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/model\/equator\">Equator<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/model\/sx4\">SX4<\/a> models). Since fuel prices commonly rise in the summer months, we can see many shoppers becoming excited about any promotion that involves free fuel, and with the hot new Kizashi just now hitting dealers, this incentive could indeed boost sales of the hot new midsize sedan.<\/p>\n<p>Customers who purchase a new Suzuki vehicle between May 1st and August 31st will receive a pre-paid debit card which should, theoretically, pay for one summer&#8217;s worth of fuel. The pre-paid cards range in value from $280 to $442, and are calculated based on the vehicle&#8217;s EPA fuel economy estimates, and on the Federal Highway Administration&#8217;s estimated average of 1,000 miles driven per month. Still, even if owners exceed this mileage, having a couple hundred bucks in free gas is nothing to be upset about. The full details are available in Suzuki&#8217;s press release, after the jump.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"postgallery\">\n<p><strong>Gallery: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2010-suzuki-kizashi-gts-review\/\">Review: 2010 Suzuki Kizashi GTS<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2010-suzuki-kizashi-gts-review\/#2512018\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/suzukikizashigtsreview_03_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2010-suzuki-kizashi-gts-review\/#2512013\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/suzukikizashigtsreview_04_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2010-suzuki-kizashi-gts-review\/#2512016\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/suzukikizashigtsreview_01_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2010-suzuki-kizashi-gts-review\/#2512017\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/suzukikizashigtsreview_02_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/photos\/2010-suzuki-kizashi-gts-review\/#2512014\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.autoblog.com\/media\/2009\/12\/suzukikizashigtsreview_05_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>\n<em><strong><small>Photos by John Neff \/ Copyright (C)2010 Weblogs, Inc.<\/small><\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n[Source: Suzuki]<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/04\/29\/suzuki-re-starts-the-free-gas-spiff-extends-offer-to-full-model\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Continue reading <em>Suzuki re-starts the free gas spiff, extends offer to full model range<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/2010\/04\/29\/suzuki-re-starts-the-free-gas-spiff-extends-offer-to-full-model\/\">Suzuki re-starts the free gas spiff, extends offer to full model range<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autoblog.com\">Autoblog<\/a> on Thu, 29 Apr 2010 16:01:00 EST.
