2008 New York Auto Show Preview: Suzuki Kizashi 3 concept



Now that Geneva has been pretty much covered, it's on to the New York show, which opens on March 21...

And as such, here's the latest rendering of the Suzuki Kizashi 3 concept. Suzuki has stated that they are looking to offer something that could compete with mid-sized sedans, and this is it—or at least is close to what we might see in showrooms in the not too distant future.

The front end styling is toned down quite a bit from earlier Kizashi concepts, but still, the visual link is strong. This new Suzuki Kizashi 3 concept is expected to be shown with a new V8 engine, a first for Suzuki.

Sketch looks decent, even if they follow the trend toward VW/Audi-like grilles. Can't see much of the body, either, but it almost looks like they sketched the Acura TSX.
 
Let's see what it ends up looking like.

What is with Suzuki with the wannabe Audi grille? That's sad.

3 is boriiiing.

Go back to 1.
3 will totally flop. It's just another Honda Civic or a Scion tC lookalike.
