At the Japan Mobility Show, Suzuki rolled out the Vision e-Sky, a compact electric car that suggests the future of mobility might not require three rows of seats and a driveway the size of a tennis court. This thing is small. Delightfully small. Park-in-that-space-everyone-else-avoids small.
Sized at 3,395 mm long and 1,475 mm wide, it’s designed for cities where space is precious and your parallel parking skills may or may not hold up under pressure. Yet the Vision e-Sky doesn’t feel minimal in the boring way.
It looks polished, light on its feet, and surprisingly modern. Suzuki calls the theme “By Your Side,” which is a pleasant way of saying it won’t overwhelm your life or your garage.
Suzuki expects a production version in fiscal year 2026, with a target range of a bit over 270 km (about 168 miles). Enough for commuting, errands, and the occasional weekend micro-adventure. Or, at the very least, enough to go out, forget something at home, return, and go out again without range anxiety ruining the day.
What makes the e-Sky interesting is how it pushes back on the idea that EVs must be large and heavily armored with screens and gimmicks. Instead, it leans into efficiency, friendliness, and a kind of intentional simplicity. It’s an electric car sized for real cities, real parking lots, and real humans who simply need to get places.
If the future of transportation includes more vehicles like this, we may finally see cities breathe a bit. And parking might even feel… pleasant.
