The Moco is built for Nissan by Suzuki and is based apon their MR Wagon. The car features inovative features like fold flat rear and fron passenger seats to give it a better cargo area, also the fron seat base folds forward to reveal a large hidden storage bin.

The Moco / Mr Wagon are powered by a 660cc engine via a column shift auto transmission. There is not alot of width in the small four seater hence the desision to place the shift lever on the steering column, future version see the shift lever move to a dash mounted type.  

The main diferences between the two cars are badging and a diferent front and rear light treatment, A turbo sporty version is also available from both Suzuki and Nissan.
