Octane and Suzuki Join Forces to Expand Financing Options
In an exciting new partnership, Octane Lending, a leading fintech entity, has teamed up with Suzuki Motor USA to enhance financing solutions for prime customers. This collaboration aims to expand competitive finance offerings across the United States, making it easier for customers to purchase Suzuki's renowned motorcycles, scooters, and ATVs.
A New Era of Financing Begins
As of April 1, 2026, Suzuki dealers will have access to a comprehensive range of financing options through Octane's in-house lender, Roadrunner Financial, Inc. This strategic move not only streamlines the financing process but ensures that customers enjoy a seamless buying experience from start to finish.
Jon Vestal, EVP and General Manager of Recreational Lending at Octane, said, “For nearly ten years, Suzuki has been a strong partner for Octane. We're excited to build on that relationship by launching a full-spectrum finance agreement. Together, we're helping Suzuki dealers and customers unlock the power of financial products with our seamless buying experience.”
The Benefits of Partnership
This newly expanded partnership promises numerous advantages for both Suzuki dealerships and their customers. Suzuki's Director of National Sales Planning and Administration, Chris Coons, expressed enthusiasm over the partnership, highlighting that the ability to offer more flexible financing solutions will lead to increased motorcycle and ATV sales. “This expansion allows us to offer more unique financing solutions, so more riders can experience the thrill and freedom of Suzuki motorcycles and ATVs,” said Coons.
With Octane's innovative dealer platform, dealerships will benefit from industry-leading digital tools designed for prequalification, acquisition, and closing processes. What's more, Octane’s award-winning customer service team will provide ongoing support throughout the loan servicing via Roadrunner Account Services, LLC.
Octane's Proven Track Record
Since its establishment in 2014, Octane has made significant strides in the fintech industry. The company has originated over $8 billion in loans and facilitated the issuance of $4.7 billion in asset-backed securities. Furthermore, Octane has shown impressive growth, with a 29% increase in originations in 2025 and a 23% rise in adjusted EBITDA year-over-year to $80 million. The company continues to build partnerships with 50 original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and operates across seven secured lending markets.
“Octane is revolutionizing financing by delivering a seamless, end-to-end digital buying experience,” commented a company representative. Their approach combines advanced technology with innovative risk strategies, facilitating fast and easy financing. Hence, Octane not only helps dealers fund more creditworthy customers but also makes automotive purchases—including powersports vehicles, RVs, and marine equipment—more accessible.
Looking Toward the Future
As Octane and Suzuki move forward with this collaboration, the focus will remain on providing a streamlined and efficient customer experience that supports the sales growth of Suzuki’s vehicles. With Octane's commitment to enhancing financial product accessibility and Suzuki's legacy of quality and performance, customers can look forward to an enriched purchasing experience that meets their financial needs.
This partnership marks a pivotal moment in the automotive finance landscape, potentially redefining how customers approach financing options for motorcycles and recreational vehicles. As they leverage technology to create a more seamless and user-friendly experience, both companies are set on a path toward unprecedented growth in the powersports market.
