Suzuki commercial song roundup: The charm of friendly J-pop and Western music (11–20)
Let’s GoPalm City
This is a commercial for the Hustler Tough Wild, which mainly differs from the standard grade in its exterior, giving it a tougher impression.
It highlights a stylish design that suits not only outdoor scenes but also city driving.
The background music is ‘Let’s Go’ by Palm City.
Its upbeat vibe that makes you want to dance and its pleasant, poppy sound are memorable.
It’s a perfect track for driving or taking a walk.
Original song
In the Wagon R commercial “Introducing the NEW Wagon R,” featuring Suzu Hirose, an original CM song is used.
Set to a rhythmic beat reminiscent of a big band, the boldly blaring horn melody creates a lively, glamorous impression.
It seems perfect not only for car outings but also as background music for all kinds of leisure activities and events, adding a touch of flair.
As the song plays, your body naturally starts to move, instantly brightening even a downcast mood!
Malibu GirlHirai Dai
The commercial song chosen for Suzuki’s Swift “Father and Daughter Car Wash” episode featuring Anna Yamada is Dai Hirai’s “Malibu Girl.” Released as a digital single in 2021, it’s a fast-paced summer tune packed with Hirai’s charm.
The lyric video on YouTube features surfing and beach scenes that perfectly match the song’s vibe.
Be sure to give “Malibu Girl” a listen on your next drive to the ocean!
Papa Loves MamboHirano Wataru
Since the model change in 2020, a different song has been used, but I think many people still associate the first-generation Hustler commercials with this track.
The original song was performed by American singer Perry Como, while the version used in the commercials is an arranged cover sung by vocalist Wataru Hirano.
Its cheerful arrangement perfectly matches the Hustler’s key message of enjoying freedom!
OverdriveAimer
In the commercial for the kei car Lapin, known for its cute design, titled “Let’s Get Going,” a drama-style video unfolds with the message, “For everyone who wants to take a step forward.” Combined with Aimer’s song used as the BGM, it’s the kind of commercial that grabs your attention the moment it airs.
The song featured in the CM is “Overdrive,” included on the single “Hakushoku Kagerō,” released in 2023.
Its lyrics, which inspire the courage to take a step toward the future, are compelling, making it a popular anthem of encouragement.
Take Me Out to the Ball GameSekitori Hana
In the Spacia commercial “The Family: Ukulele by the Seaside/Evening” featuring Mana Ashida, Kokoro Terada, Jiro Sato, and Noriko Nakagoshi as a family, the song playing is a parody of the well-known Major League Baseball tune “Take Me Out to the Ball Game,” covered by singer-songwriter Hana Sekitori.
In the original, the Japanese title “Watashi o Yakyū ni Tsurete tte” (Take Me Out to the Ball Game) directly expresses the protagonist’s feelings in the lyrics.
Mirroring that, the commercial’s version conveys the sentiment, “Let’s ride in the Spacia and go to all kinds of places.” It’s a song that stirs the excitement of going out by car, with lines like “Where should we go next?” and “I’m looking forward to going there today.”

Greatest JourneyHirai Dai
In the commercial “Father and Daughter Car Wash” for the Swift, a compact car with an appealing sporty look, Anna Yamada is shown washing a car.
Yamada is washing an orange Swift, but next to her, her father is washing a blue Swift; the way they playfully argue over which Swift looks cooler is quite heartwarming! The background music features Dai Hirai’s “Greatest Journey,” an upbeat, bright, fast-paced track that perfectly suits a driving soundtrack.
