Batchelors Motor Group Suzuki Celebrates the Return of the Boosterjet with 6-Speed Automatic

 Batchelors Motor Group Suzuki is thrilled to announce that the iconic Boosterjet turbocharged engine is making a dynamic return to the UK market – this time paired with a smooth 6-speed automatic transmission, marking a significant upgrade in driving refinement and efficiency.

A Powerful Comeback

The Boosterjet powerplant has long been celebrated for delivering punchy performance with petrol economy, and this latest version raises the bar. The key highlight is the addition of a six-speed automatic (6AT) transmission.

This combination delivers:

• Enhanced driving smoothness and effortless gear changes for everyday commuting and motorway cruising
• Strong mid-range torque response, aligning with the Boosterjet’s sporty character
• Improved fuel efficiency and lower emissions compared with previous automatic options, thanks to optimised gear ratios and refined engine calibration

Fitment and Application

The returning Boosterjet + 6AT powertrain is available across select models in the Suzuki UK line-up – including the SUV favourites Suzuki S-Cross and Suzuki Vitara. As part of the latest model upgrade, customers can now enjoy the flexibility of automatic driving without sacrificing the booster-turbo performance they’ve come to know.

Why It Matters for Drivers

For UK drivers who favour automatic transmission but want genuine driving engagement, this return is very welcome. Benefits include:

• Seamless gear changes, especially in urban stop-start traffic or variable terrain
• Ideal combo for SUV drivers who want capability and comfort — the Vitara and S-Cross both offer option-rich trim levels and available ALLGRIP four-wheel-drive technology.
• Flexibility for growing families or daily commuters who may prefer automatic but don’t want to compromise on engine character
