TOKYO - The latest iteration of the Suzuki Wagon R minicar is proof more - if any were needed - that small is beautiful in Japan.
The box-like child size Wagon R is certainly not beautiful on the outside, with its awkward pie wheels and dimensions but her inner beauty shines through when you pop the doors.
And this is not because of hearty Italian leather, wood laminate and massage seats rather the Wagon R, like many small Japanese cars and Minis, is all about the packaging.
Of course, the Wagon R has seats which fold in all flat-folding direction from front to back, so that the entire interior is transformed into a level sleeping area, is the price of admission these days this.
Suzuki has mastered that, like Honda and other Japanese brands The sixth generation Wagon R is sold by 1 February and 2006-11, the nameplate was the best-selling vehicle in Japan is all over but Suzuki a lot of time to perfect the formula.
Take the dash board for facial tissue No more reaching for that box tissue parasite drag on the ground or stuffed in a Suzuki door pocket lets you keep tissues at the front for easy access.
You have a fragile thing, you can t risk resting on the ground, like a plant that could spill How about hanging crocheted shopping in the recess of the leg of the passenger It allows your cart dangle safely with the grip of the car, without spilling or shattering.
You need more storage, after all, these are small tiny cars How about under the passenger seat No, not under the floor where your belongings to roll in the mud But under the cushion that lifts up to reveal a plastic storage box which slides back and -Comes with the seat.
Finally, what is a little stroke of genius, ponder the coming of the umbrella stand car.
Yes, Suzuki designers cut a vertical slot in the rear doors where you can hide that wet, rolled umbrella and clip in place, without having shaken around the floor.
Thought channeled into the interior of the minicar underlines the strong competition in this niche Japanese single automatic Engine size and exterior dimensions are limited by law, and customers get some benefits, such as reducing taxes, to buy larger cars.
While demand has slowed recently, minicars are big business in Japan In total, they represent more than a third of all vehicles sold in Japan, including commercial vehicles.
Even before President Donald Trump started complaining of US access to the domestic car market in Japan, minicars - and special incentives - were a prime target for militant trade for them Minis are a protected segment unassailable foreign .
It will be interesting to see if these voices are stronger with Trump at the White House.
In a way, at least, the Japanese minicar is a secret weapon of Japan Inc. They forced automotive engineers in the country to their imagination and offer something new.
