Suzuki Kizashi Gets a Sports Version
Suzuki Kizashi gets a sports version – well sort of. Originally, Suzuki’s 2010 – 2011 Kizashi was in line to receive a 3.6 liter V6 in its sportier model variant. Well, GM lost 20% of its share of Suzuki to Volkswagen, and in turn lost the 3.6.
So now the Kizashi receives a turbo charged 2.4 liter engine, along with sportier trim. Yes, smaller engine and a fancier look. Frankly, we’re a little disappointed. This “sports” version of the Suzuki Kizashi will debut later this week at 2010′s New York Auto Show.
Pricing on any of the trim levels have yet to be announced though we did find out this version will go on sale in August. Still, those at Suzuki are excited: “We’ve been thrilled with an enthusiastic reaction to the 2010 Kizashi, and we look forward to offering sport sedan buyers the newest iteration of our stylish sport sedan later this year,” said Koichi Suzuki, executive vice president American Suzuki.
