Icon Vehicle Dynamics version of the Suzuki Equator coming to SEMA

Filed under:SEMA, Tuning, Suzuki, American,
The SEMA Show is a good place for smaller tuning companies to show off what they are made of. Icon Vehicle Design is hoping to do exactly that by coming to the 2009 SEMA Show with a very aggressive version of the Suzuki Equator pickup truck. The 4.0 liter V6 engine of the Suzuki Equator will get Doug Thorley long tube headers and a cat back exhaust. Icon Vehicle Design said that they used the best out of the potential of a variety of suppliers located in the Southern California to assemble a more aggressive version of the Suzuki Equator.

Other features include Goodyear Wrangler MT/R tires mounted to Trail Ready bead lock wheels and Bushwacker fender flares, new performance coilovers in front and 2.5 inch piggyback shocks supporting linked to Total Chaos upper control arms.

According to their official website, ``Icon Vehicle Dynamics is a mid-sized off-road-racing-based manufacturing firm specializing in aftermarket suspension components for full-size trucks and off-road suspension development. The Company’s business is customer-driven, technology-influenced, engineering-oriented and focuses on world-class manufacturing processes and techniques.

We strive to be the best (as determined by our customers) marketers, designers, manufacturers and wholesalers of aftermarket suspension components by providing the highest quality product to our customers than any of our competitors and by attracting and retaining competent employees dedicated to working by our values and reaching our goals and objectives.``

I think that in this project we can all feel the hand of the American company. Icon Vehicle Dynamics took a regular, clean looking pickup truck (the Suzuki Equator) and made it look just like one of those American pickup trucks or SUVs, more precisely extremely massive and with no sense of styling or elegance, just brute toughness.
