Suzuki iV-4 Concept Photos Teased Before 2013 Frankfurt Auto Show Debut

The new Suzuki iV-4 was revealed in two photos released this week ahead of its official debut at the 2013 Frankfurt Auto Show.

"(The iV-4) "is an indication of the direction which will be taken with the future model to be added to the company's SUV lineup," according to Suzuki in a press statement.

Despite the two photos, Suzuki has yet to reveal anything else about the new model.

The automaker was clearly inspired when making the iV-4 however as Edmunds pointed out it looks a lot like the Range Rover Evoque.

"The iV-4 is Suzuki's new concept for a personal compact SUV," the company said in a press statement.

Don't expect the new concept to be released in the U.S. however as Suzuki announced last November it would stop selling cars in America.

The American subsidiary of the Japanese based company also filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.

Suzuki claims the decision is related to an unfavorable foreign exchange rates, slow vehicle sale numbers, and high costs due to U.S. regulatory requirements according to the Associated Press.

The Japanese automaker will still honor warranties during the bankruptcy which is good news for those who wish to return cars.

The company is planning on restructuring its business to focus on sales for its motorcycles, marine products and all-terrain vehicles.
