Maybe it's a fad, maybe Proust was right and we're
just harkening back to our childhood. But there's something we really dig about
an SUV wrapped in camouflage.
Not the shape-obscuring wraps automakers put on their
prototypes, but proper military-style multicolor camo – like the treatment on
this Suzuki.
Called the 6 Comments Winter Adventure, it's a
conceptual version of the retro-rugged compact crossover that Suzuki recently
released, and will now exhibit at the Tokyo Auto Salon complete with
blue-grey camo, yellow accents, and roof rack.
Of course the Xbee isn't the only vehicle that the
Japanese automaker will show at the forthcoming exhibition. There'll also be a
camper version of the new Spacia wagon, a Carry pickup rigged for fishing, and
a Swift Sport done up in matte black and red accents to mirror the GSX-S1000
superbike alongside which it will be exhibited.
Suzuki will have 12 vehicles on show in all,
including versions of the Solio Bandit, Alto Works, Wagon R Stingray, and
Spacia Custom. But with apologies to that sporty little Swift, it's the camo
Xbee we like most.
