Suzuki Cappuccino: The Tiny Roadster Gem

The Cappuccino was a charming kei-class roadster, a tiny, lightweight, rear-drive sports car with a clever convertible roof.

Produced in the 1990s, the Cappuccino was a delightful kei-class roadster that packed genuine sports-car fun into a minuscule package. It featured a turbocharged 660cc three-cylinder engine, rear-wheel drive, near-perfect weight distribution, and an ingenious removable, configurable roof.

The roof could be set up as a closed coupe, T-top, targa, or full convertible, with the panels stored in the trunk. Its light weight and balanced chassis made it a joy to drive despite modest power.

The Cappuccino is a cult classic among enthusiasts who appreciate lightweight, rear-drive fun, and a charming example of Japan's golden kei-car sports car era.
