Suzuki’s foray into the U.S. mid-size pickup segment resulted in the Suzuki Equator, which was essentially a rebadged Nissan Frontier. The Equator featured minimal changes beyond Suzuki badges and a unique front grille, but under the skin, it was identical to its Nissan counterpart. This strategy allowed Suzuki to quickly offer a proven truck without the expense of developing its own, though the Equator remained a rare sight on American roads. Source
