A four wheel drive theatre
Suzuki's "Live Series" is a collection of concept cars which demonstrate how the automakers machines tie in with their owners lifestyles. Several models have been introduced, including an SX4 with an on-board video arcade and a truck called the Base Camp- intended to be a home away from home for today's active traveler wishing to spend a weekend in the wilderness.
The latest vehicle in Suzuki's Live lineup is called the Flix, and as it's name might let on, it's a machine for movie buffs. From the outside, the Flix might not look altogether that much different than the standard model, albeit for a special paint job, LED perimeter lights, new wheels and a curious lump above the windshield.
But get this. Park the Flix, get the seats into position, and the roof opens up vertically- placing a 60-inch screen in the air above the vehicle. The seats, when turned backwards, give four people a movie viewing experience like no other. As if that weren't enough, it turns out that the curious lump above the windshield is a high-definition projector- meaning that the Flix can display movies on the side of a building, on a billboard, or any other suitable surface.
Matched to the viewing experience is an interior styled after a private screening room- with swiveling chairs and plush materials suggesting class and sophistication. The DVD player has a hard drive to store movies on-board, while a professional grade THX sound system handles audio duty. There is even red lighting on the floor and doors.
For movie buffs and technophiles, it's a dream machine like no other- but unfortunately it's not for sale.
