Look What We're Missing: Suzuki Launches New Crossover For Europe
Published: May 15th, 2014

The compact crossover market is so hot that even a moribund auto maker like Suzuki is getting into it – and what you’re looking at could very well be the next Vitara.
Built in Hungary, the new B-segment CUV is expected to resemble the iv-4 Concept shown above. With a 2015 launch, we’ll have to wait a while to find out whether it’s a rugged off-roader like past Suzukis, or just another milquetoast urban runabout. The latter would be more profitable, thanks to leveraging the Swift architecture, while providing a more civilized driving experience – perhaps at the expense of Suzuki’s brand image. Or whatever is left of it.

Suzuki SX4 and Reno aren't bad little cars...and that's saying a LOT coming from a non-fan of Japanese product like me. Made all the more attractive by their new orphan status.
I seriously thought that was a Murano.
New version of the S-Cross? http://www.suzuki.com.au/vehicles/models/s-cross/model-variant/s-cross-glx-prestige/overview
Just got back from Spain (for the F1 race) and saw Suzukis everywhere- I suspect this is true for most of Europe. seems moronic to use the term moribund.
