We think the Equator will be well-received by Suzuki's customer base, which will appreciate Suzuki's unique understanding of their wants and needs. It's a truck that's optioned out expressly for their demographic, and it brings with it Suzuki's own warranty, a clear selling point. The Smyrna production plant is one of the lowest-cost plants in the automotive world, so pricing is likely be competitive.
