Suzuki’s New Mid-Sized Truck Will Be Unveiled at Chicago Auto Show
Suzuki Auto this week announced its midsize pickup truck will be produced by Nissan North America, Inc. The truck will be based on Nissan’s Frontier pickup and built at the company’s manufacturing facility in Smyrna, Tenn. Production of the truck will begin in the fall of 2008. The vehicle will be marketed exclusively by Suzuki in North America. In 2006, Suzuki and Nissan announced an agreement to expand the scope of their collaboration. The pickup is part of that agreement, which also included the supply by Suzuki to Nissan of Alto minicars in Japan.

Darn! I got everything but the right North American Country:
(from Kathy Jackson of Automotive News as published in the Automotive Section of the September 28 edition of the Kansas City Star)
"Suzuki's version of Nissan's Frontier small pickup goes on sale next year as a 2009 model. It will be built at a Nissan plant in Mexico."
