FactMexico sold this car as the SportVan and quietly dropped it in 2010 for lack of buyers.
A mini MPV / station wagon version of the Fox presented in April 2006, named Suran in Argentina, Chile, Egypt and Uruguay, SpaceFox in Brazil, Ecuador, Bolivia and Peru, SportVan in Mexico and Fox Plus in Algeria, built in General Pacheco, Argentina. Its 360 mm-extended tail gives a larger boot and more rear leg room than the hatchback, and its main competitors are the Peugeot 206 SW and Fiat Palio Weekend. The initial version has a wheelbase of 2,645 mm (104.1 in), length 4,165 mm (164.0 in), width 1,655 mm (65.2 in) and height 1,545 mm (60.8 in), and uses the 1.6-litre engine with power ranging between 98 and 103 PS (97 and 102 bhp) depending on the fuel (petrol, or a blend of ethanol and petrol). Facelifted in 2010 and 2015, it grew slightly to 4,180 mm (164.6 in) long, 1,660 mm (65.4 in) wide and 1,576 mm (62.0 in) tall, and was discontinued at the beginning of 2019 (the Mexican SportVan was quietly dropped in February 2010 on poor sales). The most basic Suran/Fox with two airbags and no ESC received 3 stars for adult occupants and 3 for infants from Latin NCAP 2.0 in 2019. No single horsepower figure is entered because the page gives a range.

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.

Same body, same money, other badges — tap any card to flip.
Cooling the C6 RS6’s twin-turbo V10 took seven separate radiators and four electric fans under the bonnet.
The original RS6 debuted Audi's clever hydraulic Dynamic Ride Control suspension — and enough owners got tired of its leaking dampers that they ripped the whole system out for plain coilovers.
The C7-generation RS6 Avant never officially reached America at all — buyers there got the RS7 Sportback instead, running the exact same engine and platform in a different body.
For a few years, this Outback's six-cylinder trim came with genuine McIntosh audio — the same esteemed hi-fi name found in home theaters, one of the only cars ever to get it from the factory.
Subaru didn't have the budget for an all-new SUV, so it dressed up a Legacy wagon instead. A Subaru of America executive later put it bluntly: "[the Outback] saved our company."
The new Outback's full-width tail light bar has a 2 ft ruler built in, for measuring whatever you are about to load.
This Outback shared Top Gear's Car of the Year crown — an unusual honor for a jacked-up wagon to split with the Ford Mondeo in 2007.
A wagon beat the SUVs at their own game: this Outback generation won Motor Trend's Sport/Utility of the Year award for 2010.
