Designed to let in gentle light

As for the playful exterior remake, we would like to draw your attention not only to the coloring but also to the front and rear bumpers. The kit fitted is original, and not only is the design stylish, but it is unique in that its motif is the first-generation Suzuki Hustler. This is how the vehicle was named ‘FAF Eveler’.

Let’s take a look at the two vehicles, each with different specifications. First, the ivory and burgundy ‘FAF Eveler’ is fitted with block tires and was built as a wild vehicle for driving over rough roads. A hitch member is fitted to the rear, allowing the vehicle to be used not only for playing in the woods, but also for surfing with a trailer in tow.

The bright orange and ivory FAF Eveler, meanwhile, features a sunshade made from cypress wood and a canvas top. The process involves taking a mold with an isolated shape to match the roof shape, gluing cypress boards to it, and pressing them into place. The canvas top, which is produced using a time-consuming method, expresses the traditional culture that Japan is proud of. It is also designed to allow gentle light, like sunlight filtering through trees, to stream in from the interior.

In the interior, both vehicles are equipped with bed kits and an originally manufactured cabin mat for greater comfort. Making use of its woodworking skills, the side glass is equipped with louvered sunshades made of cypress. Furthermore, the side cabinets are full of ideas, such as an enclosure that amplifies the speakers of the smartphone.

There’s nothing quite like spending a moment listening to your favorite music in a calm, wood-scented interior space. Forest Auto’s customization is spectacular because it uses lots of natural wood and is tastefully and stylishly put together.
