The Suzuki Samurai, later rebadged as the Suzuki Sidekick and then the Geo Tracker, was a compact sport utility vehicle (SUV) produced by Suzuki from 1985 to 1998. Known for its rugged design, off-road capabilities, and affordability, the Samurai-Sidekick-Tracker family was a popular choice for those seeking an adventurous vehicle. It was the first mass-produced small SUV in the United States, and its success paved the way for the modern compact SUV market.

The Samurai, initially marketed as a "mini 4x4," featured a lightweight, unibody construction with a compact wheelbase. Its small size and high ground clearance made it nimble and capable in off-road settings. The 1.3-liter four-cylinder engine, while not powerful, was fuel-efficient and reliable. Over the years, the Samurai underwent several updates, including bigger engines, improved interiors, and increased safety features. The Sidekick, introduced in 1989, offered a more refined and modern appearance, with a slightly larger body and a more comfortable interior. The Geo Tracker, introduced in 1989 as a rebranded Sidekick for the American market, continued the legacy of off-road prowess and affordability. Despite its impressive capabilities, the Samurai-Sidekick-Tracker trio faced criticism for its safety in rollover situations, leading to several lawsuits and design modifications. Nevertheless, the vehicles remained popular, offering reliable and affordable transportation for both on- and off-road adventures.
