The Kizashi 3 concept shares the stage at its unveiling with its Suzuki brethren the Kizashi 1 and Kizashi 2 concepts. The Kizashi concepts all share a similar purpose, similar design influences and similar nose pieces, but one thing may set them apart. The Kizashi 3 is closer to what will be the real production version of the Kizashi than the other two. According to Suzuki sources representing the Kizashi 3 to the crowd what you see now is a close representation of what is destined to arrive in 2010.

The Kizashi 1 & 2 Concepts were a great influence on what looks to be near the final revision of the Kizashi concept and ,while we hate to see some of the more dramatic lines of the rear of the first two concepts disappear, Suzuki gains a lot of credit for keeping the bold fascia of the car intact. Powering the large sedan with the large grill breather in the front is a 3.6 liter V6 that is pumping out 300-hp to Suzuki’s all-wheel drive system that motors all four wheels of the car. If they can squeeze any more horsepower out of that V6 maybe they can include an aftermarket add-on of a larger “S” across that front grill - “SuperKizashi.”

All kidding aside it looks as though Suzuki could have a real winner arriving to our shores in 2010, and that is just what the competition needed… another strong Asian entrant in the sedan market. GM is struggling to maintain what was their dominance with their less than stimulating Malibu sedan that is receiving a huge marketing push from the battling auto giant. As if fighting off the Camry was bad enough by 2010 GM will be facing at least a 3 Brand assault as the Hyundai Genesis is now on the market and the Suzuki Kizashi arrives on the mainland.
