Cristine Knight
Auto Dealer Sales Manager With 26 years of experience in the motoring world, Cristine Knight thrives on the fast-paced and ever-changing nature of the industry. As Auto Dealer Sales Manager at Suzuki Auto South Africa, she brings both expertise and passion to her role, helping to drive the brand’s success across the country. For Cristine, Suzuki represents more than cars; it embodies energy, capability, and a quiet strength that stands out. Her favourite model is the Swift Sport, which she feels represents Suzuki’s spirit perfectly: a force to be reckoned with. One of her most memorable Suzuki moments came when she first experienced the legendary Jimny, a vehicle that left a lasting impression after years with another major brand. Away from the office, Cristine is an animal lover and an avid reader, always ready to dive into a good book or spend time with her four-legged companions.
