no that is pretty freakin cool! what the new suzuki pick up should look like!
-
That front end is kinda short..... can that only take a sideways powerplant?

Suzuki needs to stop teasing us with over the top concept vehicles and presenting weak re badged Daewoos and Chevy. Its a suckers bait and switch. I know Suzuki isn't going to bring the Jimni here because of roll over risks. Think if we all wrote to HQ and asked the next Jimni come with side air bags wide wheelbase G sensing auto stiffening shocks (ala Mercadies and and GM) and electric locker we could see a true performer?

Buying lil Suzy in 91 made me a huge Suzuki fan. She was fun, reliable, and got really good gas mileage. I have tried to stay with Suzuki, buying a 93 Swift GT in 2000 and a new GV in 03. It was not as reliable as lil Suzy was but still a good truck. Then Suzuki abandoned trucks for X-overs and light duty ute's. Now this "truck" which may be the ugliest thing I have ever seen. What is with the fake body mounted roll bar thing? and who's idea was to shape the grill like a smile. All it needs is an eye's graphic for the windshield, to complete the Car's cartoon look. Dave

I don't know about a cartoon truck, it looks more like a Tonka truck. And I mean that in a very good way. I love it personally and think it's just what Suzuki needs to get some buzz and traffic into their show rooms.
-
I am such a zuki freak that I really like it. I would love to see them build it. Guess we'll see... 8)

The Tokyo Show is now on. Mechanical highlights include a midmounted 1.4-liter four-cylinder engine and a six-speed twin-clutch automatic gearbox, along with full-time four-wheel drive.
This gives a better idea of the size.

I still say it looks like it could be one of Maters kids. That smile shaped grill really freaks me out. If they produce this thing look for people to be adding eye graphics to the windshield.
Are those beadlock wheels? ya right, this will be another one like the dune, they make a real nice one off concept car then never make the parts available or a similar model for people who want it.
-
Definately different, but I like it!!! That would actually turn more heads that the X-90.

I think that would make a awesome camping rig.
