A lot of rough, untested terrain lays between Tokyo and Los Angeles. The Suzuki Kizashi, Suzuki Equator and Suzuki V-Strom 650 will traverse this to show why you can rely on Suzuki to get the job done.

The journey, dubbed Tokyo to L.A.: The Hard Way, begins at the new Suzuki Motors plant in Sagara, Japan. From there, this team of Suzuki vehicles will travel north through the tundra of Siberia, down through Canada and finally to the western United States. The long trip will come to an end at American Suzuki headquarters in Brea, CA.

Suzuki and the editors of Motor Trend,4-Wheel & Off-Road and Motorcyclist embark on an international adventure, putting the 2010 Suzuki Kizashi sport sedan through the ultimate long-term road test, comprising almost 10,000 miles of asphalt, gravel and mud.

Keep track of this adventure by following their official website for photos, updates, and videos.
