The Tokyo Auto Salon is a grand stage for Japanese carmakers and automotive enthusiasts, showcasing some of their most inventive creations. Suzuki's latest entry, the Super Carry Mountain Trail, is a compact, robust concept vehicle that promises both business utility and recreational fun.
Suzuki describes the Mountain Trail concept as a vehicle designed for active adults who enjoy the mountains with a stoic approach. It redefines the commercial vehicle segment, blending work utility with leisure pursuits.
The Super Carry Mountain Trail is an enhanced version of Suzuki's standard Carry. While detailed modifications are yet to be disclosed, a visual inspection reveals numerous upgrades. The vehicle sports a front skid plate with recovery hooks and an overhead light bar. It seems to include a small winch too. Traditional doors are replaced with tubular structures, and the interior features sport seats equipped with harnesses. Adding to its ruggedness, an external roll cage doubles as a storage rack on the roof. The rear view hints at a fuel can and spare tire, with a possible increase in ride height.
Even without drivetrain modifications, the Super Carry is well-equipped for off-road adventures. It offers a part-time four-wheel-drive system with high and low gearing options and a locking differential for challenging terrains.
However, the standard Super Carry isn't known for its power. It houses a 658-cc three-cylinder engine that produces 50 horsepower, sufficient for off-roading but not for speed.
The Tokyo Auto Salon, running from January 12 to 14, promises more insights and images of this captivating concept. Stay tuned for updates on the Super Carry Mountain Trail.
