Suzuki Cappuccino: A Kei Car Marvel
If you're a fan of small, compact vehicles that pack a punch, then the Suzuki Cappuccino is a car that deserves your attention. This two-seater roadster is a shining example of the popular Kei car category in Japan, designed to meet specific regulations set by the Japanese government.
At VVM, we recently had the pleasure of performing a thorough Pre-Purchase Inspection (PPI) on a 1993 Suzuki Cappuccino, and we were thoroughly impressed by this pint-sized powerhouse.
The first thing that catches the eye is the Cappuccino's charming and sporty design. With its sleek lines and a detachable hardtop, this little roadster exudes a sense of fun and adventure. But don't let its size fool you – under the hood, the Cappuccino boasts a turbocharged 657cc three-cylinder engine that delivers lively performance.
Thanks to its lightweight construction, this car handles with nimble precision, making it a joy to drive on winding roads or through city streets.
In addition to its impressive performance, our inspection of the Suzuki Cappuccino revealed a range of aftermarket upgrades that enhance both its aesthetics and capabilities. The car features a pair of Lotus Exige seats, which provide excellent support and comfort during spirited drives.
The "Aerodisc" style aftermarket wheels not only add a touch of style but also contribute to improved handling. Blitz suspension ensures a smooth and controlled ride, while the Kakimoto Racing aftermarket exhaust gives the Cappuccino a distinctive growl.
When it comes to maintenance, this Cappuccino has received significant attention. The top-end portion of the engine and gearbox were rebuilt, ensuring optimal performance and reliability. A new clutch, intercooler, and radiator were installed, addressing common wear and tear items. The interior received some love as well, with a refreshed dashboard, centre console, and side door cards.
