Commentary

The text that was given is about the Suzuki Grand Vitara. It is a text promoting the car and persuading people to buy it. In other words, it is a persuasive text. It is also an informative text, simply because it tells us information about the structure and the other elements that make the product. Usually we can find this type of texts in the newspaper, magazine, brochures and even the internet. In the start of the advertisement they place the note:
 *  “Have you? **

 **the value of experience**

 **Well have you? You know, been there, done that?”**  It is used to attract the attention of the consumers by using questions and we become intrigued to answer the question. The question is a rhetorical question so it does not necessarily need to be answered. Then it continues to introducing the product. It starts first with an exaggeration, stating that Suzuki makes the world look a lot bigger than it actually is. “Expanding drivers’ horizons, taking them as far as their imagination leads them and sometimes beyond” states that it is giving a wide range of possibilities and is most suitable for those who love to drive and are adventurous. The person then states the name of the product to let the consumers know what product he or she is talking about. The next paragraph then talks about the car in more detail. Mostly using cool words that are probably only understandable to those who are interested in cars. It then uses personification stating that Grand Vitara is pure. It also says that this car is strong enough and durable enough to take on the toughest of terrains. The reason for stating such facts is really to make it more convincing to buy. I mean when are you exactly going to use it on mountains, forests or other rough terrains? Most of the time you’ll be driving around town. They also say that you can switch the system of the car from driving on rough terrain mode to driving on tarmac mode. Pretty much it is just and extra button to intrigued you into buying it and you’re paying more for it even though you’re not using it. It is really just to make the car and the owner so much cooler. It explains also in exaggeration on how whatever mother nature throws at you, NO PROBLEM! The car’s interior is comfortable, spacious and will keep you relax. The way they say it is as though something is going to attack us and this car is going to protect us. Near the end they talk about the safety, comfort and driver satisfaction that this car provides. This part aims to attract families to buy them, because safety and comfort are one of the top priorities a family when looking for a car. Next is the sentence “ all at a price that’s a world away from other 4x4” It explains that the price difference is really great that they should just buy the Suzuki Grand Vitara, because one, they are similar or even better and two, so much cheaper! In the last sentence the person gives his/her hand phone number so that if anyone is interested they can just call.
