Live on the floor at the 2010 New York City Auto Show, Suzuki is displaying the new Sport version of the 2011 Suzuki Kizashi. The near perfect blend of styling, performance, and value all make the Kizashi a solid, and economical car for just about anyone. And with the addition of the Sport package, we at Dave Arbogast feel that the little extra bit of styling and performance make the Kizashi even more appealing.

Time Magazine Most Exciting Cars of 2010: Suzuki Kizashi

Published Monday, 08 February, 2010 by Blake Arbogast. Categories: Suzuki.




The 2010 Suzuki Kizashi continues to gather praise from consumers and enthusiasts alike.  The vehicles latest review comes way of Time Magazines Most Exciting Cars of 2010.  The magazine released this statement about the all new Kizashi:  
 
Known for small cars and SUVs, Suzuki makes its first foray into the heart of the U.S. market with the midsize Kizashi sedan. The exterior styling is fresh, and the interior packs cool features such as sporty seats and a nifty instrument cluster that give the car character. The Kizashi's key asset could be its power train, which includes a new 4-cylinder aluminum engine that can be matched up to either a six-speed manual transmission or a continuously variable automatic transmission. Kizashi won't go on sale until late fall, and the price is expected to be in the low-$20,000 range. Toyota and Honda better look over their shoulders, because the Kizashi makes clear that Suzuki intends to claim a share of the midsize market in the U.S.  [Time]

It is extremely exciting for Arbogast Suzuki to start seeing the new Kizashi hit the lot.  The first Kizashi already came and went, no we are waiting for the next shipment.  Like any new model they trickle in slowly, but soon we should have a large inventory of the exciting new sedan.

Suzuki Kizashi: First Drive

Published Tuesday, 02 February, 2010 by Blake Arbogast. Categories: Suzuki.

I had my first chance to drive the all new 2010 Suzuki Kizashi Saturday.   My first impression was, finally a Suzuki that kicks butt!  I was awed by the bold and sporty styling inside and out but most of all I love the price.  When I first saw the car I was thinking $26k, $27k until I saw the window sticker...$22,359! The Kizashi defiantly wow's with the price, not to mention this one has the upgraded transmission and a bunch of other goodies including premium wheels, power driver's seat with 10-way adjustment and three-position memory, and a leather wrapped parking brake handle and steering wheel with cruise control. 

The base model Kizashi starts at $18,999, which includes a manual transmission. Standard features include a six-speed manual, eight airbags, push-button start, dual-zone climate control, a nine-speaker audio system, EPS stability control, ABS, projector beam headlights, power windows, doors and mirrors, and ambient footwell lighting.

Overall I am extremely impressed with the engineering, gas mileage, looks and price.  The all new Kizashi defiantly delivers value and versatility.   I would highly suggest test driving one and adding it to your list of new car choices.  What's it going to hurt, it's just a test drive...give the 2010 Suzuki Kizashi a crack.   Visit Arbogast Suzuki your Dayton area Suzuki Dealer or call 1-866-975-3287.

Suzuki's Kizashi Test Drive Challenge offers $100 to Audi A4 and Acura TSX buyers

Published Saturday, 23 January, 2010 by Blake Arbogast. Categories: Suzuki.




It's best to aim high, right? While most of the automotive world (ourselves included) are busy comparing the rather wonderful 2010 Suzuki Kizashi with logical competitors like the Volkswagen Jetta - not to mention larger cars like the Honda Accord, Mazda6 and Ford Fusion - it seems the Japanese automaker itself has its sights set a bit higher... all the way up to the Audi A4 and Acura TSX, point of fact.

Called the "Kizashi Test Drive Challenge" incentive program, Suzuki is offering sport sedan buyers $100 if they test drive the Kizashi first and still end up purchasing either a 2010 Audi A4 2.0T or four-cylinder 2010 Acura TSX within 10 days of the test drive. The program ends runs through January 31, 2010. Says Koichi Suzuki, executive vice president of American

Suzuki Automotive Operations:
 
With styling, performance characteristics, luxury features and a new advanced All-Wheel-Drive system on par with the Audi A4 and Acura TSX, we're excited to extend this unique offer to consumers across the country, providing potential sport sedan buyers another reason to consider the all-new Kizashi-at a substantial savings. We're definitely putting Kizashi's premium without the premium moniker to the test.

Spy Shots: Americans, meet the next-gen Suzuki Swift

Published Saturday, 23 January, 2010 by Blake Arbogast. Categories: Suzuki.




Suzuki finally seems headed in the right direction: away from a lineup clogged with SUVs towards one chock full of fun-to-drive cars. The SX4 was a good start and the Kizashi, in our estimation, is a home run. But the brand that's big everywhere else in the world has one car after which we've always lusted, the Swift. You may remember the Swift from back in the day as a rebadged Geo Metro (or vice versa), but that name carried on in other global markets where it was eventually affixed to the fifth generation Swift that debuted in 2004. Think of it as a poor man's Mini.

While Americans won't get to sample the fifth-gen Swift, Suzuki has indicated that the sixth-gen model currently under development will be sold in the U.S. And here it is in three-door guise.'
