Five Suzuki concepts for 2013 Tokyo Motor Show

Share This Post

Suzuki, the Japanese car manufacturer, has announced five concept cars. The sensational cars are set for the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show. Four of them are new: the Suzuki Crosshiker, the Suzuki X-Lander, the Suzuki Hustler and the Suzuki Hustler Coupe; the fifth is the Suzuki iV-4 already seen at Frankfurt this year.

The Crosshiker concept is the best one. This funky looking red machine is based on the same lightweight, efficiency-optimising technology as the Suzuki G70 Regina concept that debuted at Tokyo in 2011.

The difference is that the Crosshiker is a trend-catching crossover, rather than a slippery, aero-optimised city car. Weighing in at just 810kg and powered by a 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine, Suzuki says “it strikes a good balance between power and environmental performance.”

Suzuki should stop larking about and put the Crosshiker into immediate production. The proportions are excellent, the styling eye-catching without being alarming and small crossovers are set to be the next year big thing.
