658cc Kei Truck Powertrain
To meet kei car regulations in Japan, the Suzuki Super Carry X Limited is powered by a 658 cc three cylinder petrol engine producing around 50 horsepower. It may sound modest on paper, but in a vehicle of this size and weight it delivers exactly what is needed for urban driving, country lanes and light commercial use.
Power is sent through a five speed manual gearbox, with this example featuring four wheel drive, making it ideal for year round use in the UK, whether that is navigating wet roads, gravel drives or muddy event fields.
Compact Size, Big Practicality
One of the biggest strengths of the Super Carry is how much usability Suzuki has packed into such a compact footprint. Measuring approximately 3,395 mm in length, it is easy to manoeuvre and park, even in tight city spaces.
Despite its small size, the Super Carry offers impressive practicality. The open bed measures approximately 1,480 mm, making it ideal for transporting tools, parts or event gear. Inside, the cabin features a reclining driver’s seat and a simple, functional layout designed for everyday usability.
The X Limited trim adds subtle styling details that help it stand out while keeping the honest, utilitarian charm that kei trucks are known for.
A Brief History of the Suzuki Carry
The Suzuki Carry has a long and fascinating history that dates back to October 1961, when Suzuki introduced the FB Suzulight Carry. This compact pickup featured a unique layout with the engine positioned under the front seat.
In October 1963, the FB Carry was updated for the 1964 model year, followed by the introduction of the stylish FBD Carry Van in September 1964. Early models were powered by a two cylinder engine producing 21 horsepower, which later evolved into a three cylinder layout that remained in use until the late 1980s.
These early Carry models featured a top speed of around 76 kmh and relied on a durable leaf spring suspension, a setup that helped build the Carry’s reputation for toughness and reliability, values that still define the modern Super Carry today.
