Suzuki is back in the dual-sport and supermoto segment with the arrival of their most anticipated machines: all-new DR-Z4S and DR-Z4SM. The newest generation of Suzuki’s dual-sport and supermoto machines are now available in the Philippine market.
The latest DR-Zs
The DR-Z4S and DR-Z4SM are the latest incarnation of Suzuki’s celebrated DR-Z lineage. Inspired by the enduring legacy of the DR-Z400S launched in 2000 and the street-ready DR-Z400SM introduced in 2005, these next-generation models, are built on 25 years of performance and engineering. The new models bring modern power, refined control and upgraded agility to meet the demands of today’s diverse riding styles.
DR-Z4S
Designed for riders who crave off-road versatility, the DR-Z4S features a newly engineered pipe-steel twin-spar frame that improves stability and responsiveness on challenging terrain. Paired with IRC dual purpose tires, the bike delivers confident traction whether navigating trails or cruising on paved roads. Its upright riding position and optimized chassis geometry also offer enhanced comfort and control, especially on long-distance rides and technical routes.
DR-Z4SM
Meanwhile, the DR-Z4SM brings the excitement of supermoto performance to the streets. Equipped with 17-inch wheels and IRC street tires, it promises sharp cornering ability, strong grip and impressive precision perfect for city riding and track-style handling. With its street-tuned dynamics and agile design, the DR-Z4SM is ideal for riders who want a high-energy motorcycle that thrives in urban environments.
Both variants are equipped with the Suzuki Intelligent Ride System (S.I.R.S.), integrating advanced technology features such as the Suzuki Drive Mode Selector (SDMS) and Suzuki Traction Control System (STCS), which includes a Gravel mode for off-road riding. The Ride-by-Wire electronic throttle system ensures smooth and responsive acceleration. Additional safety and convenience features include front and rear disc brakes with switchable ABS, LED projector headlight for improved visibility and modern bodywork that showcases their aggressive, updated styling.
The DR-Z Series comes in a range of striking color options with pricing set at ₱589,000 for the both variants.
The DR-Z4S is available in the iconic Champion Yellow color as well as Solid Iron Gray, while the DR-Z4SM comes in Solid White and Sky Gray. Ready for adventure, built for performance and crafted for everyday thrill, the DR-Z Series reflects Suzuki’s commitment to deliver machines that support every rider’s journey.
