Japan's best selling car, the Kei-class Suzuki Wagon R, has been replaced five years to the month since its introduction.

The fourth generation (Codename: YPO)  Suzuki Wagon R has been launched in Japan, easily its largest global market.

In the home market, the now obsolete Suzuki Wagon R (YGO) continues to not only lead the Kei-class (660cc) sector but is also Japan's best selling model overall.

As with the outgoing third generation series, the new Wagon R will also be available in restyled 'Wagon R Stingray' form. Such variants come in darker... // Automotive World

The Suzuki Wagon R has a small and loyal following here in NZ, and fans of the boxy little beast will be pleased to know that Suzuki have just released the latest incarnation in Japan.

The new Wagon R is joined by a new Wagon R Stingray variant, neither vehicle loses its defining boxiness but they have all new bodies and a longer wheelbase. The standard Wagon R gets a new look with larger headlamps, while the meaner Wagon R Stingray gets some teeth with a chrome strip that runs between its more horizontal headlamps.
