The Carry series was born in October 1961 with the
FB Suzulight Carry, a pickup truck with the engine underneath the front seat but with a short bonnet. The layout has been referred to as a "semi-cabover".
[3] A glassed
FBD Carry Van was added in September 1964. The engine too was called the "
FB", a 359 cc (21.9 cu in) air-cooled, two-stroke two-cylinder with 21 hp (16 kW). This engine was to remain in use, in three-cylinder form, until late 1987 in the
Suzuki Jimny (as the
LJ50). Top speed was no more than 76 km/h (47 mph). FB suspension was rigid with leaf springs, front and rear.
[2] A panel van (FBC) was also available from July 1962.
