Suzuki's first activities in the Indonesian market in 1970 were through its import firm PT Indohero Steel & Engineering Company. Six years later Suzuki built a manufacturing facility (in Jakarta) which is the oldest part of the Indomobil Group.

Suzuki's first product was the ST20 Carry (introduced in 1978), which saw extensive use as an Angkot.[2] Nicknamed "Turungtung" (an onomatopoetic word for the sound made by the Carry's two-stroke engine), it was built until at least 1983.[3]

In 2011, the company invested $800 million to produce the Low Cost Green Car (LCGC) in Indonesia. In 2015, Suzuki opened another plant in Cikarang with a total investment of $1 billion.[4] The plant manufactured the Ertiga MPV for both domestic and export markets and the K10B engine for the Karimun Wagon R.[5]
