The Suzuki Regina is a 5-door hatchback from Suzuki, built from 2011, as electrification stopped being an experiment and the crossover took every market. Under the bonnet: 800cc turbo ICE.

How it came about

The Suzuki G70 (formerly Suzuki Regina) is a subcompact hatchback concept revealed by Japanese automobile manufacturer Suzuki at the 2011 Tokyo Motor Show.

The hardware

Power comes from 800cc turbo ICE. It weighs ~730 kg. It shifts through a CVT automatic. The layout matters: the engine drives the front wheels, the packaging choice that gives a small car a big cabin. The wheelbase is ~2425 mm. These are manufacturer figures carried by Wikipedia and Wikidata, not road-test measurements.

Family and rivals

Its contemporaries in the catalogue — the Lamborghini Aventador, the Lexus LFA, the Jeep Grand Cherokee — show what else the money bought that year. Its Suzuki stablemates include the Suzuki XL-7 and the Suzuki Landy.
