I Believe She Missed One…

An unnamed woman in a Suzuki Grand Vitara pitched an almost perfect strike in the early morning hours of Monday when for as-of-yet unknown reasons, she lost control of her SUV running though a concrete median before crashing into four brand new vehicles parked in front of a Lada dealership in the Russian city of Ekaterinburg (also known as Yekaterinburg).

A fifth vehicle seen in the security camera footage parked in the lot escaped unscathed, thus ruining her…automotive strike.

While her insurance rates are bound to hit new highs over the next months, the woman reportedly came out of the car unhurt.

Watch the short clip for yourself right past the virtual jump.

Hoax, Misunderstanding or a Real Life Kidnapper? Take a Look and Tell Us

Just when you start believing that Russian and Eastern European dashcam videos and can't surprise you anymore, something like this happens, and by that, we mean this (possibly) disturbing footage we found on the net.

Filmed in the Belorussian city of Minsk, it shows the passenger of a Suzuki Swift filling up the car at a gas station before he bends down to remove the rear license plates off the car and throw them in the trunk. We would have probably overlooked it if we didn't notice what appear to be a pair of crossed hands lying on the floor…

Is it a kidnapping, a cheeky hoax / viral video or a misunderstanding with the couple simply transferring some mannequin parts? Tell us what you think in the comments.

The Suzuki stand at the Paris Salon showcased a new concept vehicle named the S-Cross, and mind you, this isn't just another one of those show-grabbers as it hints at a production model that will go on sale sooner than you think.
"The new crossover will be the first in an ambitious programme of annual European model launches, which Suzuki will be starting in 2013," the Japanese carmaker said in a statement.

Suzuki Airs Final Version of its Super Bowl "Sled" Ad with New Song from 50 Cent

Last weekend, we showed you Suzuki's new Super Bowl commercial for the Kizashi sedan title "Sled". As it turns out, it wasn't the final version that will air during the big game on Sunday, February 5, but a preview clip with music from Ben Kahle.
However, the only change made to the commercial is the addition of rapper 50 Cent's "Movin' On Up" song. Other than that, it's the same ad showing an Eskimo swapping his dog sled for a Kizashi all-wheel drive saloon.

Who let the Dogs in? Suzuki Did for its 2012 Super Bowl Commercial

Given Americas love for man's best friend, it's a pretty safe bet that you'll get at least some attention with a commercial starring dogs.
Released on YouTube before it hits the television airwaves on February 5 during the big game, Suzuki's 2012 Super Bowl ad is entitled "Sled" and it features an Eskimo who trades in his sled (but not his four-legged crew) for an all-wheel drive Kizashi mid-size sedan.
