Does look a bit like a Navara doesnt it. If you read the article it says....
Suzuki has unveiled its first pick-up at the 2008 Chicago Auto Show, a mid-size truck based on the Nissan Frontier pickup. Developed in collaboration with Nissan, 2009 Suzuki Equator will go on sale by end of 2008 in the US and will be available in crew cab and extended cab styles with rear-wheel or four-wheel-drive options. Suzuki says Equator will be offered with two engine options, a 2.5-liter DOHC inline four with 152 horsepower and 171 lb.-ft. of torque or an optional 4.0-liter, V6 DOHC engine producing a 261 hp with 281 lb.-ft. of torque. The price details are not available at this time.

@ the RMZ colour scheme...
whats the point? I mean other than the different colours & fancy lights, why not just buy a navara/frontier or whatever it is?

Same could be said for any car thats badge engineered, look at all the Fords that were/are Mazdas, Holdens that were Suzuki's, etc

Holden should have counted itself very lucky to be able to rebadge a Zook and sell it as part of their range. Quality vehicles are Zooks
