Different brands have their own personalities, Honda VTEC, Toyota Durable, Subaru Burst.
What about Suzuki, definitely Jimny, and then locomotive.
In fact, you don't know, Suzuki is best at making cars, making K-cars, and selling well, and there are also domestic ones, which are the Big Dipper, why?
It's definitely cheap and easy to use. In 04, 4For 380,000, you can buy a Taipei Dou Star.
Alto costs more than 30,000, although it is cheaper than the Big Dipper, but the car is much smaller, and it is still three-cylinder.
As for Volkswagen, Jetta and Santana, starting at 70,000.
Even the Hafei horse race, which the post-00s have never seen, has to be 60,000.
The Big Dipper didn't have to lose, and it also hung the Suzuki mark, compared to the van, it was already a small bourgeoisie. I used to drive it out, and I could have done it.
And in the past few years, everyone's just needs to buy a car are practical, and they won't say anything about zero hundred acceleration, fast cornering, refrigerator color TV 8155 chip. When I buy a car, I have to be able to sit for the whole family, and more space is king.
The Big Dipper is like a tailor-made one, with the engine compartment taking up a little bit of space at the front of the car, and the four tires in the corners, giving the car a lot of space.
Isn't this the Honda MM concept of minimizing mechanical space and maximizing ride space?
In fact, Suzuki's idea was earlier than Honda's, but it wasn't promoted much, and few people knew about it.
It's not just horizontal, because of its square box shape, the longitudinal space is better than many SUVs now.
What's even more exaggerated is that the rear seats can be folded flat. This also leads to a problem, many second-hand Big Dippers are in battle-damaged condition, because of its good space, former restaurants, tire shops, and repair shops used it as a work car.
These people just think that the van is too big, and it is more convenient to take this kind of car to walk around the streets and alleys, and they are not afraid of being said to be illegally pulling goods by others, which is really suitable for business and living.
How good is the Big Dipper, although it has not really been counted, but it is said that before 08, 720,000 units were sold, and before the production was discontinued, the total sales also exceeded 2 million units.
So how did the Big Dipper come about, although it is a small car, it is not a K-car, it is a derivative model.
The prototype car is the real K-car, Suzuki's Wagon R, and this car is an epoch-making work.
Looking back on history, this kind of car was made back then, because the economy was not good, so the model was very targeted, except for the grandmother to buy vegetables and the cart was a small bread and a small truck.
Even if there are performance cars and off-road vehicles, they are all mini versions. Later, when the economy improved, I built a few sports cars.
Suzuki, like Toyota in the early days, started as a textile machine, and later like Honda, transformed into a motorcycle and then a car.
Well, when making cars, Toyota and Nissan have already occupied half of the country, and Honda, if you want to make a high turn, you have to be enthusiastic, so you have to do racing cars, play F1 to make a name for yourself, and get a car-making certificate.
Suzuki is a little more Buddhist, does not fight with them, finds another way, specializes in the car market, and has not changed now.
Although it has been delisted in China, other regions, not to mention, are far away, as far as we are Hong Kong and Macao, Suzuki cars run everywhere.
In fact, there have been domestic before, Alto, you will understand it as soon as you say it.
And Jimny, if it weren't for this **, young people would definitely buy it.
Speaking of Alto, back to the Wagon R, in fact, Suzuki has a similar idea on the third-generation Alto, and has a derivative model: Alto Hustle.
The front sits people, and the back is heightened, so that people can sit and pull goods.
Later, this inspiration was applied to the Wagon R, and this square box car was born.
Ah Qiang at the entrance of the village said that it is the same length and width as *** Alto, the chassis is almost the same, and many parts are shared, but the appearance and height are different.
So how popular is the Wagon R, the new car has sold 500,000 units in Japan in 3 years, an average of 10,000 units a year, and K-Car is an exaggeration.
Even Mazda and Opel, as well as Opel's special brand in the UK: Vauxhall, have all engaged in rebranding cars to sell, but that is the second generation, which is different from the Big Dipper.
The most funny thing about Opel is that it has been introduced in China before, and it is known as the cheapest imported car.
However, strictly speaking, it is not a rebranded car, but just a borrowed appearance, machinery, and interior, all of which are made by Opel itself.
In addition to changing the logo, as I just said, the Wagon R is an epoch-making product, because it is the first time that a car manufacturer has designed the K-Car sedan into a square box shape.
Therefore, many brands have followed suit, such as Honda Life, Daihatsu Move, Mitsubishi Toppo BJ, and so on.
So back to the Wagon R itself, how many models does it have? The most original, three-door version, three passenger doors, four seats.
That is the standard K-car, and the size and displacement are made in accordance with the regulations.
As for the domestic Big Dipper, it is the Wagon R Wild, a wide-body version, 5 seats, four passengers, and a larger displacement, and the main version for export is exactly this one.
In addition, there is a four-wheel drive version, which is used in some snowy areas. There is also a performance version, with the addition of turbo. I won't talk about the rest of the miscellaneous things.
However, it is a pity that Suzuki withdrew from the Chinese market in 2018, and it turned out that it had been 6 years.
As a former Suzuki owner, I am still a little reluctant. In addition to Alto and Beidou, there are also Swifts and some SUVs, they are all very good cars.
Especially the Swift and the Swift, it's a lot of fun. However, the domestic market is changing too fast, and Suzuki's strategy is not catering to us.
The models launched are not to everyone's liking, so it is better to quit and focus on other markets, which is not a bad thing for everyone.
Enjoy the New Year
