The car you see on the spyshot is the future Suzuki's model called Kizashi under one of the three planned bodystyles, the saloon.
The Kizashi represents Suzuki's future attempt to move upmarket by unveiling a larger car than usual. Set to compete with the successful Toyota Camy and Chevrolet Malibu, the Kizashi will be a smaller model, while providing an interior as roomy as the two other cars according to the carmaker. The Kizashi will be available with three bodystyles, all previewed over the last 12 months: The Kizashi concept car previewed the future wagon, the Kizashi 2 previewed athe crossover and the Kizashi 3 previewwd the saloon.
Technical details remain secret although some observers believe that the Kizashi will be powered by two petrol engines, a 150bhp 2.3-litre 4 cylinder unit and a 280-300bhp 3.6-litre V6 unit hooked up to a six speed automatic gearbox.
Built in the Sagara, Japan, the Kizashi will hit the showrooms in 2010.
