Suzuki unveiled minor change models of its light trucks, the Carry and Super Carry, on its official website on November 10, 2025. The release date will be announced on December 19, 2025, with the models scheduled for release on January 23.
The release of an advance teaser site, which is unusual for a light truck, indicates that this improvement is a “major evolution” that goes beyond a simple minor change. In addition to a complete overhaul of the front mask and interior, the adoption of the latest safety technology and comfort equipment will redefine the concept of commercial vehicles.
