In Japan, the Every is kei cars but the Suzuki Every Plus, the bigger version of Every, had a longer hood for safety purposes and a larger engine; export market versions and derivatives.[1]

Since 1999, the nameplate have been differentiated, with commercial vehicles called Every and passenger vehicles called Every Wagon. Starting from the fifth generation, the Every uses a completely different design.

A four-wheel drive van version was added in November 1982.[4] In the domestic market Every powered by a 543 cc four-stroke F5A engine.

Two different front treatments were available, It was sold as two models: the commercial van called the Carry Van and the higher-end type Every.[6] The Carry Van and Every differed in their rear seats; the former had a single, low-back seat, while the latter had a split seat with removable headrests, indicating a passenger-oriented design. Furthermore, the front emblem differed: the Carry Van featured the "SUZUKI" logo, while the Every had an "S" mark.

In November 1993, the Carry Van line switched to the Every nameplate and the division between trucks and vans was made clearer.[1] Since November 1993, all Japanese-market Carry vans have been called Suzuki Every.

The top-of-the-line PZ Turbo and PZ Turbo Special models were the first kei vans to have fully automated climate control (including vent settings and directions).[11] Those two models also had powered sliding doors at the rear, with the PZ Turbo Special being thus equipped on both sides and also including a power step for ease of access.[11] The Every Wagon received a facelift on 20 May 2010.

Maruti Suzuki Versa/Eeco

The Maruti Suzuki Versa is a licensed variation of the Every Plus for the Indian market and was built by Maruti Suzuki from October 2001. It is the second van released by Maruti Suzuki since the Maruti Suzuki Omni was released in 1984. About seventy percent of the vehicle components are made within India.[24] The Versa was discontinued in late 2009, after only having been built to order in small numbers for some time.[25]

There were two basic versions of this car produced; the two 8-seater DX/DX2 versions and the 5-seater STD version. The DX2 version of the Versa was equipped with twin air conditioners for front and rear. The Versa was fitted with the same 16-valve, 1.3-liter four-cylinder engine generating 82 hp (61 kW) at 6000 rpm as the Every Plus. It is controlled by a 16-bit engine management system.

The initial target audience for this vehicle were customers who planned to buy a sedan like the Maruti Esteem or a utility vehicle like Tata Sumo. The 82 bhp (61 kW) engine is located under the front seat.[26] The Versa can reach from 0–60 mph in 13.5 seconds.[26]

Maruti Suzuki Eeco was introduced in India by Maruti Suzuki in January 2010. This car is a refresh of the Versa, but equipped with a new 1196 cc four-cylinder in-line engine. The Eeco makes 55 kW (73 bhp) at 6000 rpm, 101 Nm (74 ft lb) at 3000 rpm. It is delivered in either 5-seater or 7-seater versions.[27]

Changan group variants

Chang'an/Chana Star (SC6320G) is a licensed variation of the Suzuki Every Plus for the Chinese market. Changan has the license due to the Changan Suzuki joint venture. The front DRG of the Star was completely redesigned, but from the rest of the body panels, the relationship with the Suzuki Every Plus was still clearly visible. Newer models of the Chana Star are still available for production as of 2020. Examples include the Chana Star 5 truck and Chana Star 3 minivan.

The Changhe Suzuki Landy was a passenger minivan based on the fifth-generation Every, sold in China between 2007 and 2012.[28]

Further re-badged versions were sold under the Tiger Truck brand in North America.
