2010 Suzuki Equator Review & Specification



Suzuki customers know is the Japanese conveyance company enjoys an all-ttract of land roster that few manufacturers can match. To increase this strength, Suzuki teamed with off-road aftermarket specialist ARB to dress this Equator 4-door demonstrator for enhanced on- and off-road prowess, turning us loose for a quick romp on the highway and in the Arizona and California dirt.Starting with a 2009 4x4, 4.0-liter V-6 and automatic transmission model—the Equator has without change for 2010 we’re told by both Suzuki and geologists—ARB fitted their bumpers and fold-out tent, along with a select group of useful accessories from ARB-associated companies.

Most evident are the ARB bumpers front and rear. While they are designed to accept Warn winches, none were fitted in keeping with the concept’s unceremonious, dual-purpose nature. If cable capabilities are desired, the ARB bumpers are designed to accept Warn winches as bolt-ons, so a attachment is certainly not difficult. A class III receiver hitch is integral with the rear bumper.The ARB bumpers provide considerably increased protection against ground contact—while still being engineered to fold as necessary to hold, the Equator’s crumple zones and airbag effectiveness. extensive the brush back from the Equator’s ample wheel flares is accomplished viaof that which wraps around body tubular side rails that travel far enough around the Equator to help form running boards. In back, the brush guards start just in front of the rear flares where they provide more protection from rocks and embankments. Attached to both the stout bumpers at one end and the frame at the other, the ARB jungle gym also gives a “we’re on safari” look that’ll soon have you wearing yellowish-brown cotton shirt with epaulets.

Yielding a 1.75-in. lift, the ARB Old Man Emu suspension is a bolt-on amour of springs, shocks and struts. By offering a range of standard and heavy-duty suspension tunes, Old Man Emu strives to tailor each vehicle with the best compromise between on-pavement control and off-road suspension travel possible. Suzuki set our test Equator up with the appropriate heavy-duty shock valving to reimburse for the weightier ARB bumpers and fold-out, roof-top tent.On sidewalk our test Equator retained normal road manners, giving up nearly nothing in precision or ride. The larger Walker Evans wheels with their faux bead locks and 265/70R-17 BFG All-Terrain LT tires did lightly tamper with acceleration and braking, but not enough to bother. Suspension stability was worth a quick mental notation, but it certainly was far from punishing or even jiggly, and once past the first drive you won’t think of it again.

Off-road, the Equator demonstrator maintained a well-damped ride that kept us in a sporty frame of mind on smooth fire roads, and definitely helped tame the rougher bits. Stiffer and shorter-traveled than the pogo-stick deflections of a dedicated off-road “pre-runner” suspension, the Old Man Emu suspenders give a useful increase in dirt suspension utility, exhibiting more compliance over modest bumps. Combined with the taller tires, this Equator has the ground clearance to ford shallow streams should the spirit move you.
