FactScrum is named for the rugby maneuver, chosen by Mazda to signify toughness.
This Mazda Scrum is the rebadged tenth-generation Suzuki Carry truck and fourth-generation Every van (DA52/DB52/DA62), introduced in January 1999. The truck is a cab-over with the engine under the cab and rear- or four-wheel drive; the van is mid-engined. Engines are the 657 cc F6A and K6A three-cylinders, naturally aspirated or turbocharged, with a 5-speed manual or an automatic. The van ran to August 2005 and the truck to 2013.

Owning one
We don’t estimate running costs for a car like this. What it costs depends on its condition, its specialist and how it is driven, and an average would mislead.

The Suzuki Every it shares its body with went into production in Pakistan in October 2024, replacing the Suzuki Bolan there.
Its Suzuki Carry base was the first all-new Carry in 14 years and 9 months, and the only kei truck with rust-proof steel in its frame too.
The Suzuki Every underneath was, for the first time, designed as a passenger vehicle first, with the work vans derived from it.

Mazda named this tiny kei truck after a rugby scrum — borrowing the term specifically to signal toughness.
This very first Scrum lasted just nine months on sale before Japan's kei-car rules changed and it was replaced by a bigger-engined successor.

When Mazda's E2000 — the truck that became the Titan — launched in January 1964, the factory was tasked with building 1,900 of them a month.
Swaraj Mazda built this truck under license in India from 1985, and the plant survived name changes all the way to SML Isuzu.
Indonesia built this pickup for 28 years with no successor, the last one leaving the Jakarta line in January 2019 after 324,960 units.
Suzuki's first-ever diesel engine, fitted to the Super Carry, is so small that it isn't able to power an air-conditioning system at all.
A right-hand-drive DJ-3A was built so postal drivers could reach roadside mailboxes without leaving the seat.
The Power Wagon name and civilian pickup design were derived directly from the WC-series military trucks Dodge built for World War II.
Suzuki kept the L20 Carry at the exact same 21 hp as its predecessor but still called it progress — the gain was a patented Cylinder Crank Injection lubrication system, not more power.
This generation of Titan quietly became the ancestor of two other trucks entirely: it was license-built by Kia as the Kia Titan in South Korea, and formed the basis of the Australian Ford Trader.
