Stop talking about Jimny, this car is Suzuki's ultimate trump card.

When it comes to popular cars more than 20 years ago, many people will think of Alto. In fact, there was another car, which was the first car of many families at that time. Even when SUVs are everywhere, it can still be sought after by network celebrities. This is Suzuki's "Big Dipper".

Before introducing the Big Dipper, let's talk about the "K-car" culture in Japan. K-Car is a car classification made by Japan according to its national conditions. The length, width and height of the K car are limited to 3.4m* 1.48m*2m, and the displacement cannot exceed 0.66L Yes, the famous "Jimny" in the cross-country circle is also a K car.

Although Suzuki Motor ended badly in China, it is a veritable automobile kingdom in Japan. Because K-car is energy-saving and environment-friendly, and enjoys many preferential treatments, just like the new energy trend in China in the previous two years, K-Car like Big Dipper quickly occupied one third of the Japanese market.

Let's talk today,

Those things about Suzuki big dipper ~

Although in the eyes of island riders, K car is as good as ever, but in China, K car is still acclimatized. More than 20 years ago, China was in the stage of rapid development. Small cars like K-Car can neither carry people nor carry goods, so naturally they can't enter the eyes of Chinese people.

I have to say that only China people know China people best. As one of the first joint venture brands to enter China, Suzuki quickly learned the pain point of China people buying a car, and increased the body size and displacement of the Big Dipper one by one, and kept the price competitive. Soon this "non-standard" K car became a fragrant bun.

The Big Dipper is called Wagon R in Japan, while Suzuki of Changhe produces a widened version of Wagon R+. This car uses Suzuki's famous K 14B all-aluminum engine, with a maximum power of 97 HP and a maximum torque of 120 Nm. The acceleration per 100 kilometers is only 1 1.7 seconds, and the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is less than 5L.

Although the Big Dipper has a slot that has not been changed for more than 20 years, it has achieved a cumulative sales volume of more than 700,000 vehicles in China with the price in the early 40,000 s, high general parts and extremely low car maintenance costs. Even now, Big Dipper is still active in the used car and modified car market.

In fact, in Japan, Thailand and other regions, the Big Dipper has always been the favorite of refitting enthusiasts. No matter the VIP style or attitude style in the form of K car, the Big Dipper can be properly presented. With the development of domestic automobile culture, more and more riders begin to understand the modification of mini-cars.

At the 19 Shanghai CAS refit exhibition, a modified version of the red Big Dipper immediately surprised everyone. There is no doubt that this is the cheapest model at the auto show, but the owner spends no less time on it than other cars. It's really a little "enchanting bitch" with low posture, runaway tail throat and retro wheels.

Can't a car be Darth Vader? Some riders in China changed the Big Dipper into a Japanese gangster style. The Big Dipper on the head side and brain side has a high recognition. With high-brightness wheels and low body, the gas field of this car is fully open. Of course, the modification of the Big Dipper is inseparable from the exaggerated tail.

In addition to the attitude party, there is also a practical party that likes to drive by car and turn the Big Dipper into an RV. The flat roof and the luggage rack are a perfect match. The Big Dipper can be put down in the back row like a fit, which is convenient for making a single bed. It is also appropriate to put down four or five suitcases at the same time. Of course, going out to play with shock absorbers and tires still needs to be modified

Although the legend of the Big Dipper has lasted for more than 20 years in China, Suzuki has withdrawn from the domestic market and this car can only be imported. Changhe was also acquired by BAIC, so there was a dramatic scene. Both Changhe and Suzuki have produced new "Big Dipper". As for who touched whose light, you know it well.

Let me talk about this new model of Changhe first. Obviously, in appearance, this model named "Big Dipper-Flash" has not changed much except the online pig nose logo, but has become an electric new energy source. At the same time, this pure domestic Big Dipper fully enclosed rear row may only be seen at the express station in the future.

Let's look at Suzuki. There is no doubt that Suzuki is still deeply involved in the field of small mini-cars. The appearance of the new Beidouxing has been greatly improved, even called the "small will method", which is not only more exquisite in appearance, but also equipped with a brand-new k 15b 1.4L self-priming engine and even a 6-speed CVT gearbox.

Suzuki, who has withdrawn from the joint venture, has achieved greater success in India and India's domestic market. In contrast, in China, most of the "abandoned children" are doomed to be acquired. Didn't they learn other people's technology in their car-making career for more than 20 years? Perhaps this question is worth pondering by many people.
