Not due for production release until 2018 apparently so I doubt that we'll see anything until 2017. That means that the existing model will be replaced on its 20th Birthday!

Post by: nprecon on October 12, 2015, 05:11:14 PM: The Might Deck model... I always thought a convertible top on a 4-door Kick, Tracker or Vitara would be interesting. Have the convertible top start 6-8" behind the front windshield frame, and between the top body seams, all the way back to a foot or so before the back door seam. Maybe a cross brace or two between the front and back doors to retain some rigidity in the event of a roll over. It would be slightly more secure than a rag top, but you could still have the open air feel when you removed it.
