Suzuki concept 'close to reality'

Alto concept shown off ahead of its official launch at the Tokyo motor show

Suzuki has shown off a new Alto concept car.

The near production-ready Suzuki Alto concept is part of a Suzuki diplay that has been themed as 'small cars for a big future' and which includes bikes and quirky electric wheelchairs.

See the hi-res Suzuki Alto concept picture gallery

The Alto promises improved fuel economy and low emissions, as well as upgraded performance thanks to its low weight. The cockpit is said to be easy to use for drivers of all ages, with lots of innovative storage space.

It looks set to be another reasonably priced car.

Well, it is a city-car, hellllooo!

This Alto Concept looks to much like a city-car MPV, like the Hyundai i10 with it's small wheels and tall body.

We get the much cheapness version built in India. The Japanese get a diddy-looking but probably more sophisticated and better built version.

I miss Japanese built cars in the UK.

New Hyundai i20 is smarter, cleaner and more grown-up than the outgoing model. It’s certainly well worth a close look.

The headline-grabbing Mazda CX-5 returns the best fuel economy and lowest CO2 emissions of any model in the range, and is a top-level contender in the class

Base diesel Peugeot 208 is quite perky and civil, but 1.2 petrol is a better bet.

The Vauxhall Corsa VXR is accomplished, refined and quick, but it can’t match the Clio’s sheer panache
