Suzuki to show third Kizashi concept at New York Show

01/30/2008, 2:54 PM

By Drew Johnson

Suzuki has already shown two versions of its Kazashi concept — the Kazashi at the Frankfurt Motor Show and Kazashi 2 at the Tokyo Motor Show — and the Japanese automaker is reportedly preparing a third for this year’s New York Auto Show.

Suzuki has already announced that it will produce three variants of the Kizashi — a wagon, CUV and sedan. The Kizashi and Kizashi 2 showcased the wagon and CUV body styles, respectively, so look for the newest concept to preview the sedan’s design.

Where as the the previous concepts were powered by diesel and V6 engines, the newest Kizashi design will reportedly be powered by a V8 engine mated to an all-wheel drive system.

No other details are know, but check back in March for details and images.

Not bad looking. How’s it gonna look after they take off all the show car/ concept car glitz, huge wheels and LEDs off though?

V8 power in a Suzuki? They do make very durable motors. I’m assuming this will be their own design.

I love this design. This is what Lincoln’s flex-based thing should look like. It’s awesome. Smooth. Ok I’ll stop now.

That grille and nose looks like it should belong on an Amtrak locomotive with a cowcatcher.

Suzuki, who would’ve thought. I remeber my cousin used to have a swift, what a turd that was. I hope they also decide to sell that mini truck I seen in ….. motor trend? Maybe somewhere on this site? Either way, that was cool too.
