Suzuki Equator 2010

Overview:

To beef up its showroom offerings, Suzuki turned to Nissan to supply a re-badged Frontier. The Equator shares cab configurations, bed dimensions, and power-trains with that Nissan. The Equator has different interior trim and a Suzuki-designed face, but that’s about it.

Price: $18,300 - $31,700

Pros:

The right size for today’s nascent small-pickup market, available 6500-pound towing capacity and spray-on bed liner.

Cons:

Back seat is small, short bed on four-door has limited capacity.

What's New..??

Introduced for 2009; no changes for 2010.

Behind The Wheel:

With Nissan DNA, the Equator has decent nimbleness and stout throttle response but a typical pickup ride. Still, it’s good to drive.
