What Is It?
Suzuki Concept S
What's Special About It?
The Dodge Tomahawk isn't the only blending of motorcycle and car ideas. Suzuki is proud of its two-wheeled heritage and the Concept S is its newest concept.
Designed as a cutting-edge rally vehicle, the Concept S offers all-wheel drive and a sequential six-speed transmission, and is powered by a 1.6-liter, 16-valve, DOHC aluminum inline four. The 18-inch wheels are pushed to the outside edges of the body giving the Concept S a larger than usual profile. The youth market is not lost on Suzuki, therefore certain functions such as hand brake, windshield wipers, turn signals and transmission functions can be controlled via steering wheel-mounted switches similar to a video game joystick.
The Concept S also boasts an advanced navigation system and an MP3 player that can share files with similar systems in other vehicles.
Why Should You Care?
At least the Concept S shows that Suzuki has great ideas — now if the company could just get the money to build some of these great ideas... — Brian Moody
