The Kizashi 3 concept features a muscule car like looks along with a fantastic stance (due to the wider tires), and 21 inch wheels. The front grill is large, and the Kizashi 3 shares alot of its looks with the other Kizashi concept cars. Just like how the Swift, SX4 & Grand Vitara share platforms, it seems Suzuki’s Kizashi will be the next design direction for Suzuki’s future cars.
And guess what? Maruti is planning to launch it at around Rs. 10 Lacs in India and it will be competing with the Corolla, Civic & Laura.
The Kizashi features all wheel drive and a six-speed automatic transmission as well with paddle shifters, which is certainly not going to be launched when Maruti starts producing the car in India. Underhood is a 3.6-liter DOHC V6 with plated cylinders (weight and space-saving technology) producing around 300bhp, certainly this V6 engine wont make it into India, the GVs petrol engine will be used to move the Kizashi petrol, but i dont care, as i am more interested in the diesel, mostly Suzuki will be using a 1.9L DDIS engine which will also do duty in the SX4.

I know, but it will be built to a price. You know Maruti and they will do price it well.
