Suzuki Kizashi

• Year: 2009 – 2015

The Suzuki Kizashi was a mid-size sedan produced by Suzuki from 2009 to 2012. Unlike Suzuki's typically smaller car offerings, the Kizashi aimed for a more upscale position in the market, offering a sportier driving experience and a more refined interior. Engine options included various petrol engines, often coupled with either a manual or automatic transmission. Features such as all-wheel drive were available on certain trims. While initially promising, the Kizashi ultimately faced challenges in the competitive mid-size sedan market and failed to achieve substantial sales, leading to its discontinuation after a relatively short production run. Its legacy is primarily remembered as Suzuki's attempt to broaden its appeal beyond its typical market segment, showcasing more ambitious design and engineering compared to its smaller, more utilitarian models.
