Suzuki Kizashi 3 Concept

Suzuki Kizashi Concept

This is the third Kizashi Concept to come out of Suzuki’s stables, and it was displayed at the 2008 New York International Auto Show. While the previous two Kizashi Concepts had estate bodies, this version is a sedan. Dimensions are 4650mm long, 1900mm wide, 1450mm tall and it has a wheelbase of 2800mm.

A production version is in the works, but there are no final specs yet, though Suzuki hints at a 3.6 litre DOHC V6 putting out about 300 horses or so. The engine will have plated cylinders which save weight and space, a technique that pays homage to Suzuki’s motorcycle business. The engine will be mounted at the front, and will send power to all four wheels.

    conceptually, it looks rather bulky. One of the best looking design from Suzuki. Their works getting better and better over time.

    Awesome graphic and music. I can see this car is a blend of BMW 3-series headlamp, Audi front grill and honda civic back shape. Shouldn’t suzuki just keep their own style?
