im not sure thats it... they were going to announce a cx9 style thing too i think.

EDIT:
http://www.bsmotoring.com/autoexpo11/st ... utono=4404

not a replacement, thank god for that..... monocoque construction and front wheel drive. it IS the one mentioned in my 1st post but its not a Jimny replacement. that was a rumour

Quote:

The XA Alpha is a monocoque construction SUV and is not a replacement for the Jimny as was being speculated.

i could see my missus driving one though.

they're all just concept cars :roll:

alien, you should have a good grasp of the term :wink:

it's not too often the actual released model looks like the concept car, 1001 changes will be made.

the back looks like a PT cruiser... lol

I actually dnt mind it. I quite like it as a daily.... I rather drive that 21937 times rather than a swift, yaris or something similar.. even prefer that than a rav4.... I like the big car look on a small car...(if that makes sense lol )

Mr Nakanishi said that the company plans to make a serious foray into UVs and SUVs in the future

so it might still be a future for 4wds then :wink:

hmmm

This would be a good replacement for the Jimny as long as its is still smaller than the 3door GV.

Then again suzuki already offer a small 3 door 4x4 in the GV so why do we need another?

Why do these Suzuki concept cars all have outboards in them? look in the rear seat, looks like an outboard to me. Maybe they are amphibious if so DM90 should be investing in the near future :lol:
